UGC NET June 2026 Final Answer Key ReleasedAnswer Key

The National Testing Agency has displayed the final answer keys for the UGC-NET June 2026 examination, and the result was processed against them. The provisional keys were open to challenge between 16 and 18 August 2026, and the final keys were displayed on 28 August 2026, the same day the result was declared.

The sequence NTA follows is fixed. It first displays the provisional key together with each candidate's recorded responses, and allows challenges on payment of a fee per question. A panel of subject experts then examines every challenge. Where a challenge is upheld the key is corrected, and in some cases a question is dropped and marks are awarded to everyone who attempted it. The key that emerges from that review is the final key, and it is applied uniformly to all candidates whether or not they challenged anything.

Since UGC-NET is the qualifying examination for Junior Research Fellowship, for Assistant Professor eligibility and for admission to Ph.D programmes, working through the final key is the clearest way to understand your own score. The keys and the result are both on ugcnet.nta.nic.in.
