NEET UG 2026 Recorded Responses Released at neet.nta.nic.in; NTA Opens OMR Challenge Window
The National Testing Agency (NTA) has released the recorded responses and scanned OMR answer sheets for candidates who appeared in the NEET UG 2026 Re-Examination. Candidates can now access their recorded responses through the official NEET portal, neet.nta.nic.in, while scanned copies of their OMR answer sheets have also been sent to their registered email addresses.
The release of the recorded responses enables candidates to verify whether their marked answers have been correctly captured during the scanning process. NTA has also opened an online challenge facility for candidates who identify discrepancies in their recorded responses.
NEET UG 2026 Recorded Responses Available
Candidates who appeared in the re-examination can log in to the official NEET portal and review:
- Recorded Responses
- Scanned OMR Answer Sheet
- Responses captured during OMR scanning
The facility is intended to ensure transparency in the evaluation process by allowing candidates to verify the responses considered for assessment.
OMR Challenge Window Open
Following the completion of the provisional answer key objection process, NTA has now opened the challenge window exclusively for recorded responses.
Candidates who find any mismatch between the answers they marked in the examination and the responses displayed on the portal can submit objections online.
According to the official notification:
- Last Date to Challenge Recorded Responses: July 25, 2026
- Challenge Closing Time: 11:00 AM
The National Testing Agency has clarified that no fresh objections against the provisional answer key will be accepted, as that process has already concluded.
Challenge Fee
Candidates must pay a non-refundable processing fee of ₹200 per challenged response.
The fee can be paid only through online modes such as:
- Debit Card
- Credit Card
- Net Banking
Challenges submitted without successful payment or through offline modes will not be considered.
Important Instructions for Candidates
Before submitting a challenge, candidates should:
- Carefully compare the scanned OMR sheet with the recorded responses.
- Verify whether the responses displayed accurately reflect the answers marked during the examination.
- Submit challenges only for genuine discrepancies.

NTA will review all valid objections received through the official portal before finalising the evaluation process.
