National Testing Agency releases the provisional answer key and response sheets for the JEE Main 2026 January session on its official website. Candidates access the answer key by logging in with their application number and date of birth.
Along with the provisional answer key, the agency also makes candidate response sheets available. These documents allow candidates to compare their recorded responses with the official answers and estimate their probable scores before the final result declaration.
The agency opens the objection window for candidates who identify discrepancies in the provisional answer key. Candidates submit challenges online by February 6 by paying the prescribed processing fee per question. Subject experts review all valid objections before finalising the answer key.
The final answer key forms the basis for result preparation, making the objection process an important step for ensuring accuracy and fairness. The agency advises candidates to raise objections carefully and within the given deadline, as late submissions are not accepted.
JEE Main remains a key entrance examination for admission to undergraduate engineering and architecture programmes across India.
