JEE Main 2026 Dates NOT Revised: Here’s What NTA Has Actually Announced

And NTA had clarified in its brochure of the JEE Mains exam that the specific dates on which the exam will be held during this period will be notified later on.

NTA has announced that the JEE Main 2026 Paper 1 (BE/BTech) exam will be held on January 21, 22, 23, 24 and 28, 2026, and the Paper 2 (BArch/BPlanning) exam on January 29. All these dates fall between the previously announced window of January 21 to 30, which means there is no revision of exam dates whatsoever.
The confusion about exam dates being revised started because many might have misread the official notice that was released earlier and thought the dates had been revised.
However, students should not get distracted by the report and only trust the official website (jeemain.nta.nic.in) for information.
NTA has already allotted the exam date and city to the candidates via the city intimation slip on January 8. Candidates can check their allotted exam date and city on the city available under their login at jeemain.nta.nic.in. Candidates should check their city intimation slip, note their exam date carefully, and continue preparing.
The JEE Main 2026 admit card will be released soon with complete details of the exam centre, shift, and reporting time.
