JEE Main Expected Cutoff 2026 LIVE Updates: Will category-wise cutoffs increase?
JEE Main Expected Cutoff 2026:
The
JEE Main 2026 Session 1 exam is ongoing. This year, approximately 15.5 lakh candidates have registered for Session 1 exams, and with exams being conducted for a few shifts, more than 8 lakh candidates have already appeared for the exam. Considering past trends for JEE Main Cutoffs, analysing the reviews from the aspirants from the past shifts and subject-expert reviews, the cutoff is most likely to decline slightly. However, the official JEE Main 2026 cutoff will be released by NTA after the Session 2 results. The JEE Main Expected Cutoff 2026 is projected here.
These expected cutoffs are based on subject-experts and past trends, considering various factors, such as the difficulty level of the question paper, the number of registered candidates, and the past cutoffs. The details on the expected cutoffs and the possibility of rising or decreasing of the cutoffs are provided on this blog for the reference of the candidates.
JEE Main Expected Cutoff 2026
Check the JEE Main Expected Cutoff 2026 here for reference:Category | Expected Cutoff Percentile |
|---|---|
General (UR) | 93 to 95 |
Gen-EWS | 80 to 82 |
OBC-NCL | 79 to 81 |
SC | 60 to 63 |
ST | 47 to 50 |
UR-PwD | 0.001 to 1 |
The chances for the rise in category-wise cutoffs are low; however, there is a slight chance that the cutoffs may decrease if the first three days of Session 1 JEE Main 2026 are considered. However, the normalisation process will be applied to deduce the percentile of the candidates, so you can be confident of scoring well with 140 to 150 points above.
