Candidates appearing for the December 2026 examination should download their admit cards once NTA releases them. The admit card contains essential information such as the candidate's name, application number, examination date, shift timing, examination centre and reporting instructions.
The UGC NET December 2026 examination is scheduled from 14 to 19 December 2026. The subject-wise date and shift for Commerce should be confirmed through the official NTA schedule. Candidates should not confuse the December 2026 admit card with the admit card released for the June 2026 Commerce re-examination held in September.
