NEET‑PG 2025: Exam Date Extended – What You Need to Know

🎯 NEET‑PG 2025: Exam Date Extended – What You Need to Know

1. Original Schedule & Change

  • Original Exam Date: June 15, 2025

  • Updated Exam Date: August 3, 2025

    • This change was officially approved on June 6, 2025, following a Supreme Court order 

2. What Triggered the Delay?

  • The Supreme Court insisted that NEET‑PG be held in a single shift rather than two, citing fairness concerns—previous two-shift format seen as “arbitrary”

  • NBEMS, partnering with TCS, explained they needed extra logistical time—identifying ~900–1,000 secure exam centers with reliable infrastructure—to comply. TCS advised August 3 as the earliest feasible date 

3. Supreme Court’s Verdict

  • A two-judge bench (Justices Mishra & Masih) granted the extension, affirming fairness but warning: “No further extensions will be granted.”

  • The exam will run in a single session, 9:00 AM to 12:30 PM 

4. What This Means for Candidates

  • More preparation time (~6 extra weeks)—a chance to strengthen weak areas.

  • 🔍 Watch official updates: City slip, admit card details will be reissued—Old documents will become invalid 

  • No more delays—August 3 is final, so plan around this date without expecting changes.
