The Karnataka Examination Authority has extended the deadline for candidates to submit their NEET PG 2026 option entries to November 3 and released a notice clarifying fee payment procedures.
The Karnataka Examination Authority (KEA) announced on Tuesday that the last date for candidates to file their option entries for the 2026 NEET PG exam has been moved to November 3. The extension gives aspirants additional time to complete the online submission process required for securing a seat in postgraduate medical courses across the state.
In a separate advisory, KEA warned candidates to adhere strictly to the prescribed fee structure. The notice emphasized that only the official fee amount listed on the KEA portal should be paid, and cautioned against any unofficial channels that might demand extra charges.
Applicants are urged to log in to the KEA portal, verify their fee details, and complete the payment before the new deadline to avoid disqualification. The authority also provided contact numbers and email IDs for queries related to the fee and entry process.
The deadline extension and fee clarification come as many medical graduates scramble to finalize their postgraduate plans, ensuring a smoother admission cycle for the upcoming academic year.
