Why is UGC NET re-exam being held?
The NTA is conducting the re-exam for the three subjects after multiple errors were reported in the question papers during the June 2026 UGC NET examination. The decision to conduct a fresh exam has been taken to ensure that candidates appearing for the affected papers get a fair opportunity. The re-exam will cover candidates who were scheduled to take the English, Commerce and Sociology papers.
Over 1.5 lakh candidates to appear
More than 1.5 lakh candidates are slated to appear in the UGC NET retest. With the examination scheduled across September 9 and 10, candidates have been advised to check their admit cards carefully and note their examination centre, date, shift and reporting time. The NET exam admit card will be required for entry to the examination centre. Candidates should download and take a printout of the document well ahead of the examination.
