NTA has rescheduled CUET UG 2026 to June 6 and 7 for 3,765 candidates hit by a TCS iON technical glitch during the May 30 Shift 1 exam. Revised admit cards are now live on cuet.nta.nic.in.
The National Testing Agency (NTA) has released the revised admit cards for the Common University Entrance Test Undergraduate (CUET UG) 2026 re-exam on the official portal at cuet.nta.nic.in. The reexam will be conducted on June 6 and June 7, 2026, for candidates affected by the technical glitch during the Shift 1 paper held on May 30, 2026.
According to the official notice issued by NTA on June 1, 2026, a total of 3,765 candidates are eligible to appear in the CUET UG rescheduled session. These candidates had completed biometric registration at their allotted centres on May 30 but chose to leave before the examination could resume after the technical issue was fixed.
The technical disruption was reported by the service provider Tata Consultancy Services (TCS iON). NTA has directed the agency to conduct a detailed root-cause analysis and submit a report immediately. Around 95 percent of the scheduled candidates completed the May 30 examination after services were restored with full compensatory time.

What Happened During the May 30 CUET UG Shift 1 Exam?
The Shift 1 examination on May 30, 2026, was delayed at several centres due to a technical issue at TCS iON systems. NTA stated that the matter was resolved on the same day, and the test resumed with compensatory time for those who continued.
However, 3,765 candidates who had already completed biometric verification opted to leave before the restart. NTA has now given these candidates a fresh opportunity through the June 6 and June 7 reexam window.
