In a public notice issued on June 25, 2026, the NTA said nearly 20 lakh candidates appeared for the re-conducted NEET UG 2026 examination held on June 21 across the country. While the agency is finalising the results, it has also begun the process of refunding examination fees to eligible candidates.

According to the NTA, candidates were earlier asked to submit their bank account details through a dedicated portal so refunds could be transferred directly to their accounts. However, the agency received several representations regarding incorrect bank account numbers and IFSC codes. To address these concerns, a correction facility was provided during the admit card download process.

The agency has introduced OTP-based two-factor authentication (2FA) linked to candidates’ registered mobile numbers to safeguard financial information and prevent unauthorised access. The NTA has advised candidates to verify their account details carefully, as refunds will be processed strictly on the basis of information submitted and confirmed on the portal. Requests for changes after closure of the window will not be entertained.

While around 19 lakh candidates have already confirmed or updated their banking information, a small number are yet to do so. The NTA also received requests from candidates who had previously selected the “No Refund” option but now wish to claim the refund. To ensure no eligible candidate misses out, the NTA has decided to provide one last window for candidates to review and update their details.
