- NTA has released the JEE Main 2026 Session 1 results and final answer key.
- Candidates can download scorecards to view marks, percentiles, and performance.
- Results are accessible only through official NTA portals using login credentials.
The National Testing Agency (NTA) has announced the JEE Main 2026 Session 1 results for candidates who appeared in the January exams. Students can now check and download their scorecards online by logging in with their application number and password or date of birth. The results also include the final answer key, helping candidates review their performance and understand their marks.
Session 1 exams were held from January 21 to January 29, 2026, with over 13 lakh students taking the test across multiple shifts. The scorecard provides subject-wise NTA percentile scores in Physics, Chemistry, and Mathematics, along with the overall percentile. All India Ranks (AIRs) and official cutoff marks will be released later, after the completion of all exam sessions.
Students must ensure they access only the genuine official portals ending with .nic.in or .ac.in to avoid misinformation. The scorecards are essential for admissions, counseling, and determining JEE Advanced eligibility, which allows top performers to appear for the next level of engineering entrance exams.
