The National Testing Agency (NTA) has released the provisional answer key for CUET (PG) 2026, giving lakhs of candidates a chance to review their performance and estimate their scores.

Along with the answer key, the agency has also made available the question papers and recorded responses, allowing students to cross-check every answer they marked during the exam. The CUET PG exam this year was conducted in Computer-Based Test (CBT) mode for 157 subjects over multiple days in March.

For many aspirants, this is an important moment. It’s not just about checking scores—it’s also an opportunity to correct possible errors. If a candidate feels that any answer in the provisional key is incorrect, they can challenge it by submitting objections online.

Limited Time to Challenge

The objection window is open from April 11 to April 14, 2026, with the payment deadline set for April 14 at 10:00 a.m. Candidates can submit a challenge by paying a non-refundable cost of ₹200 per question.

The process is simple: log in to the official CUET PG portal, review your response sheet, select the question you want to challenge, attach supporting documentation, and submit the claim after payment. Only successful paid-for challenges will be examined.

What Happens After You Submit?

Once all objections are received, NTA will forward them to a panel of subject experts. If a challenge is valid, the answer key will be changed for all students who took that test.

However, candidates should note that no individual confirmation will be sent regarding whether their objection was accepted or rejected. The final answer key released after this process will be considered final and binding.

Why This Matters

This stage can make a real difference. Even a single corrected answer can improve a candidate’s score and ranking, especially in a competitive exam like CUET PG.

Students are advised not to wait until the last moment and to carefully review their responses before submitting objections. Missing the deadline means losing the chance to raise concerns.

With the answer key now out, the focus shifts to the final results, which will be prepared based on the revised answers after all valid challenges are taken into account.
