The National Testing Agency (NTA) will close the NEET UG 2026 re-examination provisional answer key objection window today, June 28, 2026, at 11:50 PM. Candidates who appeared for the NEET UG 2026 re-examination have only a limited time left to review the provisional answer key and submit objections against any answers they believe are incorrect.
The challenge facility is available through the official NEET UG portal, where candidates can log in using their application number and password. Each objection must be supported with valid academic evidence and accompanied by the prescribed processing fee. The NTA has made it clear that challenges submitted after the deadline or without the required fee will not be accepted.

The provisional answer key allows candidates to verify their recorded responses and estimate their probable scores before the declaration of the final result. Aspirants who identify discrepancies should complete the challenge process before the objection window closes tonight.
After reviewing all the objections received, subject experts appointed by the NTA will evaluate the challenges. If any answer is found to be incorrect, the final answer key will be revised accordingly.
