The receipt

Copied word for word from NTA's own page, so you can check it yourself:

“Last date: Fresh applications must be completed, including fee payment, on or before 22nd November 2026 upto 11:50 P.M. and with late fee from 23rd November 2026 to 26th November 2026 upto 11:50 P.M.”

Desk notes

Information Bulletin (posted 24 Oct 2026) gives online submission 24 Oct – 22 Nov 2026 (11:50 pm), late fee ₹500 23–26 Nov, correction 27–29 Nov, city slip 30 Dec, admit card 13 Jan 2027, exam 20,21,22,23,24 and 28 Jan 2027. NTA notice dated 30.10.2026 lets candidates submit a fresh form by the same date (quote taken from it). Session 2 (April 2027) is a separate application. JUDGEMENT CALL: this is a school-leaver exam; the CEED row's notes excluded UCEED for the same reason, so the editor may drop it. Added because the lane brief asked for it and it is relevant to droppers and first-years planning a re-attempt.
