CSIR NET June Cutoff 2026 Out: Check Subject-wise Marks and Percentage Here

The CSIR NET June Cutoff 2026 has been released for candidates who appeared in the Joint CSIR-UGC NET June 2026 examination. The National Testing Agency (NTA) has published the CSIR NET Cutoff 2026 separately for five subjects and different categories. Candidates can now check their qualifying status for Junior Research Fellowship (JRF), Assistant Professor and PhD admission.

 

The CSIR NET June 2026 examination was conducted on July 17 and 18 in computer-based mode. NTA subsequently released the final answer key and result, while the subject-wise cutoff determines the minimum percentage required for each qualification category.

 

Candidates can also check the latest CSIR NET 2026 result and scorecard to compare their marks with the applicable subject-wise and category-wise cutoff.

 

CSIR NET June Cutoff 2026: What Has Changed?

The CSIR NET Cutoff 2026 has been released for Chemical Sciences, Earth Sciences, Life Sciences, Mathematical Sciences and Physical Sciences. The cutoff is available for JRF Category 1, Assistant Professor Category 2 and PhD-only Category 3.

 

The cutoff is not the same for all subjects. For example, the UR cutoff for CSIR NET JRF 2026 is highest for Earth Sciences at 71.020%, followed by Life Sciences at 66.500% and Chemical Sciences at 62.250%. Mathematical Sciences has the lowest UR JRF cutoff among the five subjects at 43%.

 

CSIR NET Cutoff 2026: Minimum Qualifying Percentage

Candidates should not confuse the basic qualifying requirement with the actual subject-wise cutoff. The minimum qualifying benchmark is only a basic eligibility threshold, while the final cutoff is determined separately for each subject and category.
