JEE Main 2027 registration has opened for Session 1, with reports highlighting digital identity verification through services such as DigiLocker, MeriPehchaan and JanParichay. Candidates should follow the options on NTA's portal, prepare their documents and verify the official instructions before applying.
The National Testing Agency (NTA) has started the JEE Main 2027 Session 1 registration process, with a reported change in the identity-verification procedure. Candidates are required to verify their identity through an available digital service, with DigiLocker, MeriPehchaan or JanParichay listed among the reported options, before completing the application process.
Candidates preparing to appear for the January 2027 examination should review the registration instructions carefully and ensure their personal and academic details are accurate.
JEE Main 2027 Registration New Verification Rule
The JEE MAIN 2027 reported update introduces digital identity authentication as part of the application process. Candidates should follow the verification options displayed on the official registration portal and complete the required authentication before proceeding with the form.
The three names associated with this process are:
- DigiLocker: A government digital platform for accessing and storing documents.
- MeriPehchaan: A Government of India single sign-on platform that brings together services including DigiLocker, e-Pramaan and JanParichay.
- JanParichay: A digital identity and single sign-on service that can be used to access supported government services.
Candidates should note that these services are not necessarily three separate verification systems. MeriPehchaan integrates multiple identity and login services. Applicants should use the option available on the JEE Main registration portal and avoid assuming that every option will work identically.
Why Is Digital Verification Important for JEE Main 2027?
Digital identity verification can help match a candidate's identity with the information submitted in the application form. It may also help reduce discrepancies in personal details and improve the application verification process. Candidates should ensure that their name, date of birth and other personal information match their official records. Any mismatch should be checked against the instructions provided by NTA before the form is submitted.
How to Complete JEE Main 2027 Registration?
Candidates can follow these steps to apply for JEE Main 2027 Session 1. The exact sequence may vary depending on the options shown on the registration portal.
