No, mcq in jee mains has only one correct option, unless their is something wrong in that.

Hello

In JEE Mains there are only multiple choice questions and not multiple options correct questions (those questions will be asked in JEE Advanced after you clear JEE Mains). Also, in JEE 2021 there will be numerical questions too (which will not carry any negative marking). From 2021 there will be 20 MCQs and 10 numerical questions (out of which you have to do 5 numericals) for each subject, PCM .

Dear student,
In the history of jee mains it has happened multiple times that a question has more than one correct answers even if the question is only to choose one correct option. But a student can only choose one option. If questions that are incorrect or all the options given are incorrect then the students who attempted them gets bonus marks.
