Result of 110 candidates withheld

In the first edition, the NTA scores of 39 candidates were not declared as they were found to have indulged in unfair practices. During the second edition, 110 candidates were found to be involved in unfair means, including forgery of documents related to the examination, and consequently, their results were not declared.

"Besides these candidates, the results of 23 candidates have been withheld due to discrepancies in their photographs, biometric details or other personal information for identity verification. These candidates have been asked to provide a valid proof of their photographs, duly attested by a gazetted officer, to the NTA within a specified date for their results to be declared," the senior NTA official said.

NTA scores are ‘normalised scores’

A senior official explained that NTA scores are normalised scores across multi-session papers and are based on the relative performance of all those who appeared for the examination in one session.

The official added that the marks obtained are converted into a scale ranging from 100 to 0 for each session of examinees.
