According to a public notice issued by the NTA, the examination window has been extended to 195 minutes and will now run from 2:00 PM to 5:15 PM. The agency said the revised duration includes time required for mandatory examination formalities such as attendance verification and other invigilation procedures, ensuring that candidates receive the full intended time to attempt the paper. In another change, the NTA has increased the number of rough work pages in the question paper booklet from two to four.
