After reading this message, we realized that most of the NEET aspirants feel anxious, as many of them face trouble while updating their Aadhaar data on the site. Our faculty member, Garima Goel, talked to the NTA helpline and answered all the questions raised by the students.
Possible ways for Successful NEET Aadhar Authentication
Most of the students who do not see the Aadhar number on the NEET Application form currently face two types of difficulties as follows:
- Not received the NEET 2025 Aadhar Authentication Link
A few students reported that the latest NTA NEET 2025 Aadhar Authentication link was not received in their registered email. In that case, we are advised to check the SPAM folder in your Mailbox or wait a few hours to get the NTA mail.
Apart from this, you are required to log in to your Dashboard available at the NTA NEET Official Website (https://neet.nta.nic.in/)
- Failed Massage pop-up at the time of Authentication
A huge number of students faced error messages while updating their Aadhar details on the authentication link. The possible reason for this issue is a mismatch between the name and date of birth on the Aadhar card and the NEET application form.
When we asked the NTA helpline, they suggested visiting the nearest Aadhaar correction center and rectifying the details with the proper documentation. After the correction is done, the enrollment ID will be valid for processing the NEET UG 2025 Aadhaar Authentication.
