NCET 2025 Registration Extended: The National Testing Agency (NTA) has extended the registration date for the National Common Entrance Test (NCET) 2025, giving aspiring teachers more time to apply. The new deadline to submit online applications is now March 31, 2025, until 9 PM. Candidates can pay the application fee until 11:50 PM on the same day.

The registration deadline was extended after students, educational institutions, and other stakeholders requested it. The extension was recommended by the National Council for Teacher Education (NCTE) to help students who are struggling to meet the original deadline because of ongoing CBSE and other board exams.
