LiveUGC NET December Result 2025 LIVE: NTA to release scorecard shortly, check cutoff, final answer key

The UGC NET December 2025–26 examination was conducted in computer-based mode between December 2025 and February 2026 for 85 subjects. The provisional answer keys were released on January 14, and candidates were allowed to raise objections until January 17. After reviewing all challenges, the NTA said it will publish the final answer key along with the UGC NET December 2025 results on February 4.

After the results are declared, candidates will be able to check their result for UGC NET December 2025 Examination through the official websites. The official websites of NTA UGC NET include:

• ugcnet.nta.ac
• nta.ac.in

• Name of the exam
• Exam Date
• Subject ID
• Exam Shift
• Correct option ID
• Question ID

Securing minimum marks does not automatically guarantee NET qualification. Even as candidates secure 40% (General) and 35% (Reserved categories) aggregate marks, final selection depends on subject-wise cut-offs and the top 6% rule. And moreover, the cut-offs vary each cycle based on exam difficulty and candidate performance.

The students who have appeared for UGC NET examination held in December-January can check the results when announced through the official website of UGC NET at ugcnet.nta.nic.in. The NTA may declare the UGC NET December 2025 Result on February 4. However, no notification about timing has been released as yet.

Ahead of the UGC NET December 2025 Results, the provisional answer key was released on January 14, 2026 and the last last date to raise objection was January 17, 2026. The exam was held in two shifts- first shift from 9 am to 12 noon and second shift from 3 pm to 6 pm. UGC NET December exam was held from December 31 to January 7, 2026.

The UGC NET December 2025 result is likely to be declared on Thursday by the National Testing Agency as the candidates are awaiting confirmation of eligibility for Assistant Professor posts, Junior Research Fellowship and Ph.D. admissions. The candidates must note that the result will be released online and will include scores, percentile, qualification status and category placement under the revised UGC Ph.D. admission framework.

While the NET qualification for Assistant Professor remains valid for life, the Junior Research Fellowship given through UGC NET December 2025 is valid for a limited tenure as prescribed by UGC norms. In the meantime, the UGC NET December 2025 results are prepared based on the final answer key released by NTA. Any challenges raised during the provisional answer key window are reviewed before finalisation.

Moreover, the final qualification in UGC NET December 2025 is based on combined scores of Paper I and Paper II. Candidates must meet both subject-wise and overall cut-off requirements.

The students must note that the UGC NET uses percentile scores instead of raw marks to account for multiple shifts. One’s percentile shows the percentage of candidates who scored equal or less in that subject. This ensures fairness across exam sessions.

The UGC NET cut-off depends on factors such as the degree of competition and the complexity of the test. Candidates from the General and EWS categories need to receive at least 40% in their cumulative scores from both examinations in order to be eligible. However, the candidates from the SC, ST, OBC (Non-Creamy Layer), PwD, and third gender categories must receive at least 35% of the possible points.
