The official CUET UG 2023 final answer key is available in a PDF hosted by the National Testing Agency (NTA): Download the CUET UG 2023 final answer key PDF. NTA originally announced the provisional key on 29 June 2023, with cuet.samarth.ac.in among the release sites; the NTA-hosted PDF is the dependable route to the archived final key.

NTA’s 29 June 2023 notice named both nta.ac.in and cuet.samarth.ac.in as places where provisional keys were uploaded. It also said candidates’ question papers and recorded responses would be available through cuet.samarth.ac.in for review and challenge. That establishes Samarth as an original release portal, but does not confirm that its old interface still serves those pages.
Provisional and final keys: what changed
The provisional key was the version candidates could challenge after reviewing their question papers and recorded responses. NTA’s challenge period ran from 29 June through 1 July 2023, with payment due by 11:50 p.m. on 1 July. The fee was ₹200 per question and non-refundable; NTA listed debit card, credit card, net banking and Paytm as payment methods. Challenges were accepted only through the prescribed online process, not by another medium.
#1 Best Overall
Subject experts reviewed submitted challenges. If a challenge was found correct, NTA said it would revise the key and apply the revision to all candidates who attempted the affected question. Candidates were not to be individually notified whether a challenge was accepted. As NTA put it in its 29 June 2023 notice, “The key finalized by the Experts after the challenge will be final.”
How the final key relates to CUET UG 2023 results
NTA said results would be prepared using the revised final answer key. Its later result notice confirms that final keys were used to prepare the result. The final PDF, rather than the earlier provisional version, is therefore the relevant reference for the answer key used in result preparation.
