JEE Main Session 2
The National Testing Agency (NTA) today announced the result of JEE Main 2026 Session 2 and the list of toppers. 26 candidates have got a 100 NTA score in the 2026 JEE Main this time. Three candidates have secured the highest possible score in one of the country’s most competitive engineering entrance exams. Out of more than 10.34 lakh candidates who appeared for the JEE Main 2026 exam session 2, only a few got the maximum 100 percentile.
The JEE Main 2026 has become more competitive this year, with the most stringent marks shared among the top candidates.
The top states in JEE Main 2026 with a 100 percentile are Andhra Pradesh and Telangana. From Andhra Pradesh, Jonnala Roshan Manideep Reddy, Narendra Babu Gari Mahith, Thunga Durga Suprabhath, Pasala Mohith and Bijjam Venkata Chandra Sekhar Reddy got the 100 percentile in JEE Main 2026.
In Telangana’s top scorer list, Mantha Shiva Kamesh, Doranala Bhavitesh Reddy, Sai Rithvik Reddy Venkat Reddy Valla, Vivaan Sharad Maheshwari and Rishi Premnath got 100 percentile in JEE Main 2026. This dominance of southern states is not new in the field of engineering entrance exams.
The National Capital Territory of Delhi also performed well in JEE Main 2026, with Shreyas Mishra, Aditya Gupta and Atharva Panjabi from Delhi getting 100 percentile in JEE Main.
From Rajasthan, Kabeer Chhillar, Arnav Gautam, Yashvardhan and Chiranjib Kar got 100 percentile in JEE Main 2026. There is a greater spread of top scorers from North India.
Apart from Chandigarh’s Aarush Singhal, who got the perfect score, the state of Maharashtra also had two top-rankers, Siddharth Shrikant Athaley and Madhav Viradiya. Similarly, the state of Haryana had two top rankers, Arnav Gandhi and Anay Jain. Thammina Girish from Tamil Nadu, Shubham Kumar from Bihar and Bhavesh Patra from Odisha also made it to the elite 100 percentile band
This wide assortment of students shows the national reach of the competition and reminds everyone that talent and hard work can come from all corners of the country, not just the coaching towns.
With the results out, the shortlisted aspirants can now move to the next hurdle, which is the JEE Advanced. Candidates will be permitted to appear for the exam and hope to get a seat in Indian Institutes of Technology (IITs) only if they can clear the cut-off. With a higher number of students getting 100% marks and the cut-offs increasing, the competition for IIT seats this year ahead is expected to be higher than ever.
The candidates have to maintain their consistency and perform under pressure to reach the next stage. The JEE Main 2026 result once again highlights the massive scale of the entrance exam.
The difference between a top rank and a lower rank comes down to a few marks. While the aspirants prepare for the next level, the focus now shifts to JEE Advanced, where the final showdown for the top engineering seats will take place.
