Following the cancellation of the May 3rd exam, the government confirmed that a re-examination will take place on June 21, 2026<\/strong>. To ensure that students and families do not face a financial burden due to administrative errors, the NTA has activated a specific refund policy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

1. Who is Eligible for the Refund?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Every single candidate<\/strong> who successfully registered and paid the application fee for the cancelled May 3rd NEET UG 2026 exam is eligible for a full refund. You are eligible regardless of whether you actually appeared for the cancelled test or were absent.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

2. Is There a Fee for the Re-Exam?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

No.<\/strong> The re-examination scheduled for June 21, 2026, is completely free<\/strong> for all previously registered candidates. You do not need to pay any fresh fees, and you do not need to fill out a new registration form. All your candidate data from the first cycle will automatically be carried forward.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

3. How to Claim Your Refund (The Online Process)<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

As of May 21, 2026<\/strong>, the NTA has activated a dedicated fee refund module on their official portal. Since the original payment may have been made months ago (or through third-party cyber cafes), the NTA requires candidates to explicitly submit the bank account details where they want the refund deposited.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Here are the steps to follow:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    \n
  1. Visit the Official Portal:<\/strong> Go to the official NEET website: neet.nta.nic.in<\/a><\/strong><\/li>\n\n\n\n
  2. Log In:<\/strong> Use your existing NEET UG 2026 Application Number and Password (or Date of Birth) to access your candidate dashboard.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  3. Locate the Refund Link:<\/strong> Look for the newly activated link titled “NEET 2026 Fee Refund Module” or “Bank Detail Submission for Refund.”<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  4. Enter Bank Details:<\/strong> Carefully enter a valid, active bank account number, account holder name, and IFSC code. Ensure this is an account you have direct access to (like a personal or parent’s account).<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  5. Verify and Submit:<\/strong> Cross-check the details and submit the form.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n

    Note: Once processed, the NTA will credit the refund amount directly to the bank account you provide in this module.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

    4. Important Update on Exam City Preferences<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

    Alongside the refund module, the NTA had also temporarily opened a correction window for candidates to update their exam city preferences for the June 21st re-test.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    If your residential address has changed, you were allowed to log in and update:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

      \n
    • Your current residential address.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
    • Your first preferred exam city.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
    • Your second preferred exam city. (Note: This specific correction window is scheduled to close on May 21, 2026, at 11:50 PM).<\/em><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n

      5. What Should Students Do Next?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
        \n
      • Submit Bank Details:<\/strong> Complete the refund module as soon as possible.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
      • Monitor for Admit Cards:<\/strong> Since the re-exam is on June 21, the NTA will issue fresh admit cards indicating your new center and reporting times. Your old admit card is invalid.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
      • Prepare for June 21:<\/strong> Use the extra time to revise. Remember that the medium\/language of the exam you selected originally cannot be changed.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n

        Help and Support<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

        If you face technical issues logging into the portal or submitting your bank details, you can contact the NTA Helpdesk:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
