The National Testing Agency (NTA) has said it will provide another opportunity to NEET UG 2026 candidates to update their bank account details for fee refunds after the examination, in cases where students have entered incorrect information or were unable to complete the verification process earlier.
The announcement comes as the agency begins the process of refunding examination fees to candidates following the cancellation of the earlier NEET UG 2026 examination. According to NTA, all refunds will be credited directly to the bank account details provided by candidates through the official portal.

NTA clarified that candidates facing difficulties in updating their bank details, or those who may have submitted incorrect information, need not worry. A separate correction opportunity will be provided after the examination to allow such candidates to furnish the correct bank account details required for the refund process.
To verify their details, candidates need to log in to the NEET UG portal using their application number and password or date of birth. They can then access the bank account verification section, review the information entered, and save any corrections before submission.
The agency also issued a warning against fraudsters attempting to exploit the refund process. Candidates have been advised not to respond to calls, messages or links claiming to speed up or verify refunds. NTA said it never asks candidates for OTPs, passwords, UPI PINs or any payment in connection with refund processing.
