India, Aug. 6 -- The Centre on Tuesday, August 4, informed the Supreme Court that no final decision has yet been taken on conducting the National Eligibility cum Entrance Test for undergraduate (NEET UG) in computer-based test mode from 2027.

The Central government informed the apex court that the shift from the existing pen-and-paper format to a computer-based test (CBT) will depend on the recommendations of a high-powered task force headed by Infosys co-founder Nandan Nilekani. The submission came in the form of an affidavit filed by the Department of Higher Education ahead of the hearing on petitions related to the NEET-UG 2026 paper leak and examination reforms.
