The National Testing Agency (NTA) held the RE-NEET UG 2026 examination on 21 June 2026 in a single shift from 2:00 to 5:15 PM, the re-test ordered after the 3 May 2026 exam was cancelled. Around 22 lakh candidates were eligible. Within hours, coaching institutes published unofficial answer keys for the four paper codes — 50, 60, 70 and 80 — but the official provisional answer key is not out yet: NTA is expected to release it around 24-26 June 2026 at neet.nta.nic.in. This page explains the codes, the marking scheme, how to download the official key, the objection process, and gives you a calculator to estimate your score.
What do codes 50, 60, 70 and 80 mean?
NEET question papers are printed in multiple codes so that candidates sitting next to each other do not get the questions in the same order. Codes 50, 60, 70 and 80 contain the same set of questions arranged in a different sequence — there is no easier or harder code. Your booklet shows your code on the cover; when the answer key is released, you match your code's key to your own responses. NTA publishes a separate key for each code, so always pick the one that matches your booklet rather than comparing against another code.
How to download the official answer key (when released)
- Go to the official NTA NEET portal at neet.nta.nic.in (the link is in the Important Links section below).
- Click the RE-NEET 2026 Answer Key / challenge link once it goes live.
- Log in with your application number and date of birth / password.
- Download your response sheet and the answer key for your paper code (50/60/70/80), and compare them question-by-question.
Until NTA publishes the official key, the coaching-institute keys circulating online are unofficial — useful for a rough estimate, but they can differ from each other and from the final key, so do not treat them as conclusive.
How to raise an objection
After the provisional key is released, NTA opens a short window to challenge answers. Log in to the candidate portal, select the disputed question, upload supporting evidence (an NCERT page or a standard reference), and pay the objection fee of Rs 200 per question, which is refunded only if your challenge is accepted. Raise objections only where you have a credible published source — vague claims are rejected, and an upheld objection is corrected for every candidate in the final answer key.
Final answer key and result
Once objections are reviewed, NTA releases the final answer key and then the RE-NEET 2026 result and All India Rank, expected in the first week of July 2026. The result, not the provisional estimate, decides your rank and counselling eligibility. Track the outcome on our NEET UG Result 2026 page.

Marking scheme and how to estimate your score
RE-NEET 2026 follows the standard NEET UG marking: +4 marks for every correct answer, −1 mark for every wrong answer, and 0 for an unattempted question. The paper has 180 questions — Physics 45, Chemistry 45 and Biology 90 (Botany + Zoology) — for a maximum of 720 marks. To estimate your raw score, count your correct and wrong answers against your code's key and apply (Correct × 4) − (Wrong × 1). Use the NTA Answer Key Score Calculator right below to do this instantly; treat the figure as provisional until the final key is out.
NTA Answer Key Score Calculator
Match the official answer key against your response sheet, then enter how many answers you got right and wrong below. The calculator applies the marking scheme to give your estimated raw score.
Formula: Score = (Correct × 4) − (Wrong × 1)
Example: 108 correct and 36 wrong = (108 × 4) − (36 × 1) = 396 marks.
This is an estimate based on the provisional answer key. Your final score depends on the final answer key issued after objections are reviewed. Unattempted questions score zero. This estimates your raw NEET score out of 720 from the provisional key; your All India Rank and qualifying percentile are decided after the final answer key and result.

No. The answer keys released by coaching institutes within hours of the exam are unofficial. They are useful for a rough score estimate but can differ from each other and from the final key. Only the key published by NTA at neet.nta.nic.in is official.
Why was the NEET 2026 re-exam held?
The RE-NEET 2026 was held on 21 June 2026 because the original 3 May 2026 exam was cancelled and a re-test was ordered by the authorities. For the full background, see our NEET UG Re-Exam 2026 page.

A note for candidates and parents.
Use the unofficial keys for a rough estimate, not a verdict. The coaching keys that appear within hours of the exam are genuinely useful for gauging whether you are in a safe range, but in a year as scrutinised as this one, the only key that decides anything is the official NTA one — and it can shift a few marks after objections. So calculate your score, note it, and wait for the provisional key before drawing conclusions. Two practical points. First, match strictly against your booklet code (50/60/70/80); comparing your answers to a different code's key is the most common self-scoring mistake and produces a wrong, often demoralising, number. Second, if you plan to object, prepare the NCERT or standard-reference citation now — the window is short and a challenge without a credible source only wastes the Rs 200 fee. For a cohort that has already sat this exam twice, the steadiest path is a careful provisional estimate, a calm wait for the official key, and counselling preparation in parallel rather than reacting to every unofficial figure online.
