A Beed NEET-UG 2026 aspirant, Soham Nitin Gavte, has moved the Bombay High Court alleging that NTA awarded him 95 marks instead of the 522 marks he calculated from his OMR sheet and official answer key. He approached the court after receiving no response from NTA emails seeking verification and correction of his scorecard.
Beed, July 21: A NEET-UG aspirant from Maharashtra's Beed has moved the Bombay High Court claiming that the National Testing Agency (NTA) awarded him just 95 marks instead of the 522 he calculated from his OMR sheet and official answer key in the June 21 re-exam. The petitioner, Soham Nitin Gavte, stated that he was compelled to approach the court after receiving no response from the NTA despite sending emails and seeking clarification regarding the discrepancy.
Petitioner Seeks Result Correction
The plea, filed before the Aurangabad bench, is scheduled to be heard on July 23. The petitioner stated that he scored 94.6 per cent in Class 10 and 74.17 per cent in Class 12 (Science), and had appeared for the NEET-UG examination on June 21.
On comparing the OMR response sheet released on July 14 with the official answer key published two days later, Gavte claimed he found that he had attempted 148 questions, of which 136 were correct and 12 were incorrect. Under the NEET marking scheme, Gavte claimed that he should have secured 522 out of 720 marks.
