Server load and timing
High server load is the likely cause when lakhs of candidates try to access neet.nta.nic.in at once. If you face repeated failures, wait and try during low-traffic hours. NTA released the exam city intimation before issuing the admit card.
What NTA details to note
The city intimation slip is the advance notification of your exam centre city; it is not the hall ticket. Keep your login details ready and avoid sharing them. No official helpline numbers or email addresses are provided on the slip; use the portal for further instructions.
