In case of any discrepancy in the particulars of the candidate or his/her photograph and signature shown on the IIT JAM 2025 admit card, candidates should immediately approach the IIT JAM Help Line between 10.00 A.M. and 5.00 P.M. 

Hence, candidates need not worry about the possibility of not getting allowed inside the IIT JAM 2025 exam centre. However, they must follow up with the examination conducting body before the commencement of the admission process.
