JEE Main 2026 Result Date and How to Check
The NTA will publish the results and scorecards for JEE Main 2026 Session 1 on jeemain.nta.nic.in by 16 February 2026. This new date replaces the previously expected result date of 12 February 2026 after evaluation procedures and final answer key review were completed.

- View and download the scorecard for future reference.
This scorecard will display subject-wise percentiles, total percentile score, All India Rank (AIR), category rank, and qualification status for JEE Advanced, where applicable.
Expected Cutoff and Next Steps
While the official JEE Main 2026 cutoff for various categories will be confirmed after both sessions are completed, preliminary projections suggest:
- General (UR): 93-95 percentile
- OBC-NCL: 80-82 percentile
- SC: 60-62 percentile
- ST: 47-49 percentile
These cutoffs are based on trends and are subject to change when the NTA publishes official details.
Candidates who meet the qualifying criteria will become eligible to register for JoSAA counselling and participate in admissions to NITs, IIITs, and other participating institutes. Eligibility for JEE Advanced also depends on rank and performance.
JEE Main 2026 Toppers and Merit List
Alongside the scorecards, the NTA is expected to release the list of top performers. Last year, several candidates achieved perfect 100 percentile scores, underlining strong competition.
