NEW DELHI: The Joint Entrance Examination Main 2025 was conducted in two phases with the best score being considered for those who attempted both. Nearly 15.4 lakh unique candidates registered, and almost 14.8 lakh appeared across the sessions. The April session alone saw over 10.6 lakh registrations, with 9.9 lakh candidates appearing for the test, held in 13 languages across 300 Indian cities and 15 international locations, including Dubai, Singapore and Munich.
The 10 candidates who scored a 100 percentile in the April session are Md Anas, Ayush Singhal, Archisman Nandy, Devdutta Majhi, Aayush Ravi Chaudhari, Lakshya Sharma, Kushagra Gupta, Harssh A Gupta, Aadit Prakash Bhagade, and Daksh.
For candidates aspiring to qualify for JEE Advanced, NTA announced category-wise cutoff percentiles . The general (UR) cutoff is 93.1, while it is 80.38 for EWS, 79.43 for OBC, 61.15 for SC, and 47.90 for ST categories.
To ensure transparency and fairness, NTA implemented extensive measures, including live CCTV surveillance, biometric verification, AI-based video analytics, and 5G mobile jammers. Despite this, 110 candidates were found using unfair means, and their results have been withheld. Another 23 candidates face delays due to identity verification issues.
In the PwBD (person with benchmark disability) category, Harshal Gupta from Chhattisgarh topped with an outstanding NTA score of 99.96. A total of 4,314 PwBD candidates appeared in the exam, with additional organisational support provided to them as per govt norms.
As candidates now set their sights on JEE Advanced 2025, Saturday's result concludes one of India's largest and most competitive engineering entrance processes - a gateway to institutions such as NITs, IIITs, and the coveted IITs.
To be eligible for JEE (Advanced) 2025, candidates must fall within the top percentile cutoffs based on their category in JEE Main 2025 (Paper 1). Additionally, only those who appeared in both or either session of JEE Main 2025 and meet age, attempt, and academic requirements as specified by the IITs are allowed to apply.
Over the past four years, the cutoff trend for JEE (Advanced) eligibility based on JEE Main scores has shown a steady upward trajectory across all categories, reflecting growing competition and improved academic performance among aspirants. This consistent rise suggests increased access to coaching resources, broader outreach of STEM education, and possibly more aspirants opting for multiple attempts to maximise their scores. It also signals that even reserved category candidates are performing at higher levels, narrowing historic gaps in achievement.
