NTA JEE Main Session 2 Results Live, jeemain.nta.nic.in: The JEE Main 2025 Session 2 results have now been declared by the National Testing Agency (NTA) on the official portal jeemain.nta.nic.in. This marks a significant academic milestone for students who appeared in the second session of India’s premier engineering entrance exam. JEE Main is a critical gateway for admission into top engineering institutions, including IITs, NITs, IIITs, and other centrally funded technical institutes.

The announcement follows the release of the final answer key, which had experienced a brief delay. Initially scheduled for publication by 2 PM on April 18, it was made available later in the day after thorough review and resolution of all objections raised against the provisional key. Candidates can now download both the final answer key and their individual scorecards from the official website.

The scorecard provides a comprehensive breakdown, including raw marks, subject-wise percentiles, overall NTA score, All India Rank (AIR), and JEE Advanced eligibility status. The results also confirm that 24 candidates have secured a perfect 100 percentile, with the highest number of toppers coming from Rajasthan, followed by Maharashtra, West Bengal, Uttar Pradesh, Telangana, and other states.

Percentile scores are key in the admission process, as they normalise performance across multiple shifts and help assign fair rankings. These scores are used to determine eligibility for JEE Advanced 2025 and will also guide the JoSAA counselling process, which facilitates admission to NITs, IIITs, and GFTIs.

Alongside individual scores, the category-wise cut-offs have been released, helping candidates assess their chances of progressing to JEE Advanced or securing admission through JoSAA. The final answer key, now live, ensures transparency and fairness in score calculation, as it includes only verified corrections following the objection window.

Candidates who have qualified for JEE Advanced can now begin registration and preparation for the next phase. Those not moving forward to Advanced will participate in the JoSAA counselling process, expected to commence in June 2025. This result represents a crucial academic juncture for lakhs of aspirants, opening pathways to some of the most prestigious engineering institutions in the country.
