ICAR AIEEA 2026 Final Answer Key ReleasedAnswer Key
ICAR AIEEA 2026 अंतिम उत्तर कुंजी जारी
Overview
The National Testing Agency has published the final answer keys for the ICAR All India Entrance Examination for Admission (AIEEA) PG and the All India Competitive Examination for JRF/SRF (AICE-JRF/SRF) 2026. The examination was held on 04 July 2026 at 162 centres, and the keys released on 29 August 2026 are the ones against which every answer sheet was machine-marked.
A final answer key is different from the provisional key that NTA displays soon after an examination. The provisional key is open to challenge for a fee; once subject experts have examined those challenges, the agency corrects the key where a challenge is upheld and publishes the result as final. NTA's standard practice is that the final key is not open to further challenge, and the decision of the expert committee is final and binding.
Because the result for AIEEA (PG) and AICE-JRF/SRF was declared on the same day, 29 August 2026, candidates can use the final key to work through the paper question by question and understand exactly how their score was arrived at. Scorecards are available on the ICAR examination portal at exams.nta.nic.in/icar.

The provisional key is published first and can be challenged on payment of a fee. The final key is what remains after subject experts review those challenges, and it is the key used to compute results.

No. The challenge window applies only to the provisional key. Once NTA publishes the final key the decision of the expert committee is final.

The result was declared on 29 August 2026, the same day the final answer keys were displayed.
