Hello aspirant
You will get four marks for one correct answer and if your answer is wrong then you will loose one mark . There are four marks for every correct answer and negative marks for incorrect answer . Fir example out if 10 questions you have attempted 8 questions . 4 of your answers are correct and four are wrong so for four correct answers you will get 4×4 = 16 marks , now for four incorrect answers 4 marks will be deducted from 16 ie 16-4= 12 marks you will get

Hello dear student,
JE mains exam is divided in two papers paper 1 and paper 2. In paper 1 students who are interested for BTech and BE courses appear while paper 2 is for B arch students. So as far as the marking scheme is concerned if you will attempt a right question then you will be awarded with 4 marks while for one wrong question you will be given negative one marks.
while for you for the information and understanding here I am attaching the link and I hope that will be helpful for you.
