The wait for the JEE Main 2026 Session 1 results is almost over. The National Testing Agency (NTA) will release the scorecards today, February 16. However, the agency has already released the final answer key and dropped 9 questions from it.
As lakhs of students get ready to check their results, fake websites usually pop up during this time. These websites look like the official NTA site but are created to steal personal details or spread confusion.
Here’s everything you should know to safely check and download your JEE Main 2026 Session 1 scorecard.
JEE Main session 1 result 2026: Fake vs real NTA websites
When results are announced, many students click on the first link they see. Scammers take advantage of this by creating websites that look almost exactly like the official NTA portal but have slightly different web addresses.
What are the official NTA websites?
Make sure the website address ends with .nic.in or .ac.in. Only trust these official portals:
-jeemain.nta.nic.in
-jeemain.nta.ac.in
-ntaresults.nic.in
-nta.ac.in
If the website address looks different, it could be fake.
JEE Main result 2026: Fake websites to avoid
In previous years, students have reported suspicious websites such as:
-jeemains.in (extra “s” added)
-jeemain.nta.in (missing “.ac” or “.nic”)
-jeemainnic.in (missing dots)
-upmsp-edu.com (unofficial site claiming to show results)
-jeemain.info
Always double-check the web address before entering your Application Number or Date of Birth. If it does not end in .gov.in, .nic.in, or .ac.in, do not use it.
The January session of JEE Main 2026 was conducted from January 21 to January 29. The Session 1 result is likely to be declared later in the evening on the same day. Meanwhile, registration for Session 2 is already open.

It is important to note that the Session 1 scorecard is not a pass or fail result. It will show your percentile scores in Physics, Chemistry, and Mathematics, along with your overall NTA percentile.
