Several NIFT 2026 candidates have flagged errors in their final scorecards released by NTA on June 3 2026. Some report marks for exams they did not attend while others appear marked absent despite sitting for the test.

The National Testing Agency (NTA) is facing complaints over NIFT 2026 scorecard errors. Several candidates have flagged mismatched scores and attendance discrepancies. The final result was released on June 3, 2026. It is hosted at the official portal exams.nta.nic.in/niftee.
NIFTEE 2026 admits candidates to UG and PG design programmes at NIFT campuses. The complaints surfaced days after the Stage 2 scorecards went live.

What Are Candidates Reporting?
Reports from students point to two main issues with the final scorecard. Some candidates have received marks for sections they did not attempt. Others have been marked absent despite appearing for the test.
- Marks shown for a paper or section the candidate did not attend.
- Status marked as absent for candidates who sat the exam.
- Total scores that do not match the candidate's own answer-sheet estimate.
- Differences between Stage 1 and Stage 2 attendance records.
- Many candidates have flagged the issue on social media and helplines. Several have demanded a fresh review before counselling begins.

Why Is This Important Before Counselling?
The NIFT counselling process uses the final merit rank from the scorecard. An incorrect score can change the rank and the campus assigned. A wrong absence flag can disqualify a candidate from counselling altogether.
Students worry that delays may push the counselling timelines further. NTA has not confirmed whether a revised result will be released. Candidates are advised to act quickly and keep records of every complaint.
NIFT seats are limited and rank-sensitive. A single wrong score can shift a candidate off the merit list. Quick grievance filing is the only safeguard before counselling locks seats.
Action Plan for Candidates
- Download and verify the scorecard at exams.nta.nic.in/niftee right away.
- Compare the marks with your own answer-sheet estimate from the exam.
- Email a written complaint to nift@nta.ac.in with all proof attached.
- Call the helplines and note the acknowledgement reference number.
- Track the official portal daily for a revised result or notice.
Watch the official portal for an NTA notice on result revision. The NIFT 2026 counselling schedule is the next major update to track.
