City Intimation Slip for JEE Main 2026 Session-1 has been released on the official NTA portal jeemain.nta.nic.in — this slip tells candidates which city their exam will be held in, but it is not the actual admit card.
-
The actual JEE Main Admit Card 2026 (hall ticket) for Session-1 is expected to be released very soon — typically 3–4 days before the exam start date.
