NEW DELHI: The National Testing Agency (NTA) will open the online module May 21 for submitting bank account details to claim a refund of the NEET UG 2026 examination fee.
Candidates appearing for the re-examination of the National Eligibility-cum-Entrance Test Undergraduate (NEET UG) 2026 will not be required to pay any additional fee for the fresh exam.
As part of the refund process, NTA will activate a dedicated portal at neet.nta.nic.in through which candidates can provide their valid bank account information for reimbursement of the exam fee paid earlier.
Once the module is live, students need to log in and submit the required banking details to receive the refund.
The re-examination is being conducted after the cancellation of the earlier NEET UG 2026 exam held on May 3 amid paper leak allegations and other irregularities.
Over 22 lakh candidates are expected to appear for the re-test, which will be held in pen-and-paper mode on June 21 from 2 pm to 5:15 pm.
