The NEET UG 2026 (National Eligibility cum Entrance Test Undergraduate) is the single national-level medical entrance examination conducted by the National Testing Agency (NTA) for admission to MBBS, BDS, AYUSH, BSc Nursing, BVSc & AH and other undergraduate medical courses across India. NEET UG 2026 will be held on May 3, 2026 (Sunday) in a single shift.
The NEET UG 2026 application process has begun, with online registration available on the official website neet.nta.nic.in. As per the official notification, candidates can submit their application forms from February 8 to March 8, 2026, while the last date for fee payment is March 8, 2026 (11:50 pm). A correction window will be provided from March 10 to March 12, 2026.
Among those backing the decision was IIT Madras Director V Kamakoti, who has repeatedly warned about what he described as a "vulnerability" in Telegram that allows users to alter messages and even attached files without changing the original timestamp.
NTA DG pointed out that the NEET re-exam had to be organised in just 37 days, compared to the usual five to six months of preparation time. Question paper setting, proofreading, translation into 13 languages, printing of 22 lakh papers and transportation all had to be compressed into that window.
To avail the facility, students appearing for NEET UG 2026 are required to produce their examination hall ticket at the time of boarding an APSRTC bus.
The dedicated reporting portal is available at innovateindia.mygov.in/neet-ug-2026, and allows students and members of the public to flag instances of alleged malpractice.
The Ministry of Electronics and Information Technology has issued directions, restricting Telegram app's access in India until June 22, 2026, ahead of the NEET (UG) 2026 re-examination on June 21.

The Ahmedabad police's cybercrime branch has arrested two men for running a network of fraudulent websites and Telegram channels that claimed to have the NEET re-examination question paper.
The announcement comes as the agency begins the process of refunding examination fees to candidates following the cancellation of the earlier NEET UG 2026 examination.
