Also, NTA said, "By the policies of NTA, the results of all the examinations including NEET UG 2024 have been released after the period for filing objections on the answer key. The practice of releasing the results on time is by the recommendations received from the National Medical Commission (NMC).

The purpose of releasing the results on the scheduled date is to start the counseling process for admission early in the interest of the candidates.”
