Hello Sakshi,

Joint Entrance Examination - Main or commonly known as JEE Main is a national level entrance exam conducted by the NTA to offer admission to BE/BTech, BPlan and BArch courses at the IIITs (Indian Institute of Information Technology), NITs (National Institute of Technology) and other Centrally Funded Technical Institutions (CFTIs) across the country.

As per latest news reports, JEE Main exam date 2021 can be postponed to February and May, instead of January and April. Release of application form has been delayed. Also syllabus may be reduced. However there is no official notice from NTA yet on this. As per the IIT Delhi director Ramgopal Rao, students can expect a slight delay in the exam dates of JEE Main January 2021. All the latest updates of JEE Main 2021 will be updated as soon as it is released by the authorities.

  • With JEE Main 2020 April session getting postponed thrice, aspirants have doubts on the exam dates for JEE Main 2021 January session.
  • JEE Main 2020 April session has been concluded from September 1 – 6, 2020.
  • As per NTA Director General Vineet Joshi, they are planning to hold the January session for JEE Main 2021 on time.
  • Planning another exam right after september will take time as shared by IIT Delhi Director Prof. Ramgopal Rao. He further added that the exam dates can be delayed by a month.
  • Also, if board examinations are postponed from March and the schools don’t open in time, than the exam dates can be impacted as well.

The first session of the Joint Entrance Exam Main, or JEE MAIN 2021 (https://www.ndtv.com/education/covid-19-engineering-entrance-jee-main-likely-be-pushed-february-say-officials) , is likely to be held in February instead of January, according to officials. An official notification regarding JEE Main 2021 registration date is expected soon and the application process will begin next month. Usually, the National Testing Agency (NTA) conducts JEE Main in January and April but the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic has disrupted the academic schedule across boards this year.

I hope this was helpful. Thank you!
