Overview
- The National Testing Agency activated a JEE Main 2026 registration demo at demo.nta.nic.in on October 7 to let candidates practice the application flow.
- The detailed notification is expected as early as today or by October 8, with reports indicating applications will open in October though dates are not yet announced.
- Applicants must file the actual form on jeemain.nta.nic.in when live, as submissions on the demo portal do not count as real registration.
- JEE Main 2026 is planned to run in two sessions, one in January and one in April.
- Reported criteria highlight eligibility for Class 12 candidates of 2026 and passouts of 2024 or 2025, Physics and Mathematics as mandatory subjects, no upper age limit, and a CBT Paper 1 of 3 hours with 75 questions for 300 marks.
