The National Testing Agency (NTA) is expected to declare the provisional answer key for the University Grants Commission National Eligibility Test (UGC NET) June 2026 session this week.
Once the provisional answer key is out, candidates will have the provision to review OMR response sheets and submit objections within the prescribed deadline on the official NTA UGC NET website. This documentation will allow candidates to match their answers with the official keys and approximate their potential scores prior to the results announcement.
