Simran Rani, a student from village Nadele (Sihala) in Samrala area of ​​Ludhiana district, said everything was normal at home. The result was released late night on 16th July. When we checked by entering the roll number on the website, 715 marks were visible out of 720 and rank-1 was written. Seeing the good marks, an atmosphere of happiness was created in the house and sweets were distributed in the house. Sarpanch Neeraj also honored him after reaching home. However, after some time the whole matter changed.
According to the family, later when it was learned that Aryan Gupta of Ludhiana, who had scored 715 marks, and Panshul Bansal of Haryana had got All India Rank (AIR) 1, Simran logged in again to see her rank.
Even at that time only 715 marks appeared on the website, but his name was not found in the main merit list. After this he opened the website for the third time and checked the result, but this time the result was not visible. Tried several times after this, but nothing was shown.
Simran showed the screenshot of the scorecard…

used to study 12 to 13 hours Simran
Simran’s father Hardeep Kumar and grandfather are farmers. The father said that despite limited resources, Simran used to study for 12 to 13 hours every day. Mother Poonam said that if 715 marks were shown on the website then why is the name not there in the merit list. He has demanded that the student’s OMR sheet and answer key be placed before the family, so that the entire matter can be investigated impartially.

Village Sarpanch Neeraj says that Simran is a hard-working student and her screenshot was also taken at the time of declaration of results. The family has complained about this matter to the concerned authorities, after which the family has been called to Delhi.
Where clarification will be sought in the entire matter. If solution is not found there too then court will be approached. However, no official response has come yet from NTA in this matter.

Two different results of the same student in Haryana
Another shocking case has come to light from Haryana. Haryana candidate Mukul Kajal has sent a complaint to the Director General of NTA alleging that major changes were made in his scorecard without any information. It should be repaired.
According to the complaint, Mukul’s marks were recorded as 605/720 (All India Rank 9551) in the scorecard downloaded from the official website on July 17, 2026. But just a few hours later, on the morning of July 18, when the scorecard was downloaded again, his scores dropped to just 60/720.
Due to this, Mukul’s All India rank dropped to 18,76,324. The student claims that he has the original scorecard of July 17 safe. Also, by matching the OMR response sheet and the final answer key of NTA, their score becomes only 605 marks.
