The National Testing Agency (NTA) has released the Joint Entrance Examination Main (JEE Main 2025) results for 23 candidates whose results were previously withheld due to identity verification issues. These candidates can now access their scorecards for the BE/BTech (Paper 1) through the official website, jeemain.nta.nic.in.

However, the results have been published after verifying documents submitted by these candidates and completing all necessary verification procedures. Candidates can now log in using their application number, password, and captcha to download their JEE Main 2025 scorecard.

JEE Main 2025 withheld results: Why was this step taken?
According to NTA, some candidates who failed to submit valid documents have been served show-cause notices. Their results remain withheld, and appropriate action will be initiated against them. The agency reiterated that strict measures are in place to prevent malpractices during national-level entrance exams.
Earlier, the NTA had withheld results of:
- 39 candidates in Session 1 for using unfair means.
- 110 candidates in Session 2 for document forgery and other violations.
- 23 candidates due to biometric or photo-related discrepancies (now resolved for compliant candidates).
Candidates who were asked to submit attested photographs and supporting identification proofs were provided a deadline. Those who complied within the stipulated timeframe have had their results declared now.
JEE Main 2025 withheld results released: What’s next?
Eligible candidates can now use their JEE Main scores to apply for admissions to engineering institutes such as National Institutes of Technology (NITs), Indian Institutes of Information Technology (IIITs), and Government Funded Technical Institutes (GFTIs). Admission through the Joint Seat Allocation Authority (JoSAA) will soon begin, and these candidates will now be able to participate fully in the counselling process.
