IIT Roorkee has dismissed social media claims of cheating and irregularities in JEE Advanced 2026. The institute said a review of examination records found no evidence of malpractice, data manipulation, or system compromise.

The Indian Institute of Technology (IIT) Roorkee, the organising institution for JEE (Advanced) 2026, has refuted reports that have been spreading through social media about the existence of irregularities, foul play, and even cheating in the examination this year. According to the organising body, all the information circulating through online platforms about the rank, marks, and abnormal score differences are completely incorrect.

In a statement issued by IIT Roorkee, it was stated that certain candidates and parents have complained to the organising body about lists being circulated via online platforms which include information on the ranks, total marks, and discrepancies between the marks scored in Paper 1 and Paper 2.

Claims on social media found to be incorrect

Responding to the allegations, IIT Roorkee stated that none of the information appearing in the circulated data matches any officially released records. The institute categorically described the claims as factually incorrect and misleading.
