CSIR UGC NET December 2026 registrations open, exam in December
The National Testing Agency has opened registration for the Joint CSIR UGC NET December 2026 session. Candidates can apply online at csirnet.nta.nic.in until 5 November, 11:50 pm. A late application window with a Rs 500 fee runs from 6 to 9 November. Form corrections are allowed from 10 to 12 November. The exam will be held on 19, 22 and 27 December in two shifts, 9 am to 12 pm and 3 pm to 6 pm, in computer-based test mode across five subjects: Chemical Sciences, Earth, Atmospheric, Ocean and Planetary Sciences, Life Sciences and Biotechnology, Mathematical Sciences, and Physical Sciences.
Indian Opinion Analysis
The two outlets report near-identical facts from the NTA notice, but NDTV's shorter summary gives only the exam dates and shifts, omitting the application deadline, late fee window, form correction period, subject list and language medium that Indian Express includes. Indian Express also carries a link to a related SBI Research report on the NTA, adding a governance subtext absent from NDTV's bulletin. The uniform core, registration open, exam on three days in December, is common to both. The key open item is the city intimation slip and admit card, which both note will be announced later on the official website.
