The final answer key was prepared after thorough checking. The provisional answer key was released on June 25 and a three day time period had been given to raise objections. Rs 200 per question challenged were charged from the students raising an objection. It should be noted that the amount was refundable in full if the challenge was accepted. The NTA along with a team of subject matter experts took the challenges in due consideration and prepared the final answer key accordingly. The final answer key thus prepared, is binding and cannot be contested further.

This was a re-examination conducted after the NEET paper leak. The original examination was held on May 3 and the provisional answer key was released on May 6.

Following the release of the answer key, the NEET UG 2026 result is expected shortly. The result will contain subject wise marks, total score, percentile score, category wise rank, status for admission and counselling and other important details.
