How NTA Decides the JEE Main 2026 All India Ranks (AIR)

NTA allots the ranks to the candidates based on the percentile score of the students. In case two or more students score the same percentile, then the tie between them is resolved using the following criteria in JEE Mains 2026:

  1. NTA score in Mathematics, followed by
  2. NTA score in Physics, followed by
  3. NTA score in Chemistry, followed by
  4. Candidate with less proportion of a number of attempted incorrect answers and correct answers in all the subjects in the Test, followed by
  5. Candidate with less proportion of a number of attempted incorrect answers and correct answers in Mathematics in the Test, followed by
  6. Candidate with less proportion of a number of attempted incorrect answers and correct answers in Physics in the Test, followed by
  7. Candidate with a lower proportion of the number of attempted incorrect answers and correct answers in Chemistry in the Test followed by
  8. If there is a tie even after this, candidates will be assigned the same rank.

Therefore, when multiple candidates score 100 percentile, their All India Rank is decided by applying the tie-breaking criteria above.
