NTA Releases JEE Mains 2026 Provisional Answer Key and Response Sheets Today The National Testing Agency (NTA) has announced the release of the provisional answer key for the JEE Mains 2026 Session 2 exam on April 11, 2026. The answer key, which will be available on the official website jeemain.nta.nic.in, will provide the correct responses to all questions from the exam. Candidates are required to log in using their application number and password to access the key and the response sheet. The provisional answer key is subject to challenges, and the final version will be released after reviewing objections. The release of the answer key coincides with the availability of the candidate response sheet, which records the answers marked by students during the exam. NTA will make both documents accessible under the respective login credentials of the candidates. The response sheet will remain available for one or two days, prompting students to download it immediately to avoid any issues. The process for challenging the provisional answer key involves submitting objections online, accompanied by supporting evidence. A fee of INR 200 per question is required for each challenge. NTA will review all objections and release the final answer key, which will be used to calculate the JEE Mains 2026 results. Candidates can calculate their scores by comparing their marked responses on the response sheet with the official answer key. The scoring system awards four marks for each correct answer and deducts one mark for each incorrect response. This method allows students to estimate their performance before the official results are announced. The tentative release date for the answer key is April 11, with the exact time yet to be confirmed. Typically, the key becomes available on the portal in the afternoon or late evening.#nta #nta_nic_in #jeemain #jee_mains #jee_advanced
