The CSIR-UGC NET sitting cancelled at an Assam centre on February 28, 2025, belonged to the December 2024 examination cycle—not the December 2025 cycle. The separate December 2025 examination was scheduled for December 18, 2025. Candidates affected by the Assam cancellation should use NTA’s official notice archive for the applicable rescheduled date and instructions.
Which CSIR-UGC NET exam was cancelled in Assam?
The affected exam was Shift 1 on February 28, 2025, at Assam Down Town University in Guwahati, Assam. Scroll reported that the sitting was cancelled because of a technical glitch and that NTA would issue a revised schedule. That report’s December 2025 cycle label conflicts with NTA’s archive, which places the rescheduling notice under the December 2024 records.
NTA’s archive identifies the relevant notice as “Reschedule of Exam held on 28th February 2025 (Shift-1 ONLY) in Assam Down Town University, Guwahati.” Check the NTA notice archive for the official notice and any candidate instructions. The technical-glitch explanation is reported by Scroll; it is not presented here as a direct NTA statement.
Was the December 2025 CSIR-UGC NET exam cancelled?
The February 2025 Assam cancellation does not establish that the December 2025 cycle was cancelled. The official schedule lists the separate Joint CSIR-UGC NET December 2025 examination for December 18, 2025. NTA’s archive also lists later milestones for that cycle, including admit cards, scores, and the final answer key.

For the scheduled date and cycle milestones, consult the official CSIR-NET website and NTA’s archive. The cycle name refers to the examination cycle; it should not be inferred from the calendar year in which an individual sitting took place.

The exact rescheduled date and candidate-specific instructions are not established by the available notice listing alone. Affected candidates should open the Assam rescheduling notice in NTA’s archive and follow the instructions there, rather than relying on the older report’s “revised schedule soon” wording as a current status. Check the official notice for any directions about the replacement date, centre, or required documents.
