Hello aspirant, If you have submitted the JEE Main form and paid Rs. 1000 online , you should first check the payment status : Confirm transaction: Check your bank statement / UPI / online payment history to see if the payment was successfully deducted. Check application status: Log in to the JEE Main portal using your application number and password to see if your form status shows “Payment Complete” . Recommended Payment failure: If the amount is deducted but not reflected in the portal, do not pay again immediately . Wait for 24–48 hours as it sometimes takes time for the payment to be updated. Contact NTA: If after 48 hours the payment still isn’t updated, contact NTA helpdesk at their official number/email for resolution. Tip: Always keep transaction ID and payment receipt handy while contacting NTA. This helps in quick verification. All the best!
