Owing to the pandemic, there was a demand by parents and students across India to consider conducting the examination twice in 2021. However, responding to an RTI in October, the NTA had confirmed that the examination will be held only once a year. Prior to that, while talking to a few media houses, the NTA chief Vineet Joshi had said that the NTA may hold the exam twice a year, like JEE (Mains).

At the same time, the NTA said that the registrations will begin soon. The announcement has come as a relief for the students who have been eagerly waiting for the date of the entrance examination.
