Hi Salini,

NEET entrance exam was having only three attempts limit earlier but now the rule has changed. The conducting body for NEET is now NTA (National Testing Agency). They provided a statement that "there will be no cap for number of attempts". So you are allowed for multiple number of attempts to give the entrance exam. For NEET (PG) there is also not mentioned any upper age limit so you have the option to take multiple chances.

One thing to note that NEET (UG) has age limits that will restrict candidates above 25 years age and below 17 years. For Backward category SC/ST/OBC there is a relaxation provided of 5 years in upper age limit that means they can attempt the exam till the age of 30.
