The National Testing Agency (NTA) has issued an official clarification regarding the use of calculators in the Joint Entrance Examination (JEE) Main 2026. The agency has confirmed that calculators both physical and onscreen will not be allowed during the examination.
According to NTA, the Information Bulletin for JEE Main 2026 mistakenly mentioned the availability of an onscreen calculator during the Computer-Based Test (CBT). However, this feature is part of the generic CBT platform and does not apply to JEE Main 2026.
NTA stated, “In Appendix-VIII of the Information Bulletin for JEE (Main) 2026, it was mentioned that an onscreen standard calculator will be available during the CBT. However, this is a generic feature and does not apply to JEE Main, where the use of calculators in any form is strictly prohibited.”
The agency has expressed regret for the typographical error in the bulletin and any confusion caused to candidates. It has also advised aspirants to refer to the revised Information Bulletin available on the official website.
