New Delhi, July 6 (IANS) The National Testing Agency (NTA) on Monday issued an important update regarding the NEET UG 2026 fee refund process, stating that only 8,29,510 candidates have so far updated or confirmed their bank account details on the official portal.

According to the NTA, the deadline for updating or confirming bank account details for the NEET UG 2026 refund is July 7, 2026, until 11:50 p.m.

“Refunds have already started for candidates who have confirmed their bank account details. If your details need to be updated, you can do so until July 7, 2026, on the official NTA portal,” the NTA said.

Candidates who have not yet submitted or verified their banking information have been advised to log in to the official NEET portal and complete the process at the earliest.

Those who complete the update before the deadline will be included in the next phase of refund disbursements.

To complete the process, candidates are required to visit the official NEET UG website at neet.nta.nic.in and click on the link titled ‘Final Opportunity to Confirm/Update Bank Account Details for NEET (UG) 2026 Fee Refund (Exam held on May 3, 2026).’
