    Opened https://jeemain.nta.nic.in/ on 2026-09-25; its Information > Syllabus menu entry points to this PDF. The PDF is stored on the government's S3WaaS file host (cdnbbsr.s3waas.gov.in) that serves the NTA's own site, so the address is not under nta.nic.in itself. Downloaded the 17-page PDF twice (byte-identical both times) and read it. Its page 1 reads 'Syllabus for JEE (Main) - 2026 / Syllabus for JEE Main Paper 1 (B.E./B.Tech.)- Mathematics, Physics and Chemistry'; pp. 12-14 are 'Syllabus for JEE (Main) Paper 2A (B.Arch.) - Mathematics, Aptitude Test and Drawing Test' and pp. 15-17 'Syllabus for JEE (Main) Paper 2B (B.Planning) - Mathematics, Aptitude Test and Planning'. After writing this file I re-opened the PDF and compared all 90 chapters with a second text extractor: every chapter's topic text is found in the PDF, on the page named in its locator, in the same wording; the count of UNIT headings matches (Mathematics 14, Physics 20, Chemistry 20, Paper 2A Mathematics 14 + Aptitude Test 2 + Drawing Test 1, Paper 2B Mathematics 14 + Aptitude Test 2 + Planning 3); and nothing in the PDF is left uncovered except the unit headings themselves and one note about bringing pencils to the Drawing Test (not syllabus). Five items cannot be read from the PDF's text layer, so I rendered those pages to pictures and read them by eye: the ten standard-integral forms in Unit 8 (a picture on pp. 2, 12 and 15 - the same picture, identical bytes), the equation dy/dx + p(x)y = q(x) in Unit 9 (pp. 2, 13, 16), 'psi and psi squared' in Chemistry Unit 2 (p. 7), and the Greek letter alpha before '-hydrogen' (Unit 17, p. 10) and '-amino acids' (Unit 19, p. 10). These were compared by eye only, not by text.

Only Chapter 2 (Examination Scheme: 2.1 Mode of Examination, 2.3 Scheme of Examination, 2.4 Pattern of Examination, 2.5 Duration of Test; PDF pp. 16-22, printed pp. 10-16) was used, for the pattern note and for the marks of each paper. After writing the note I re-read those pages with a second text extractor and compared every number in it (questions, sections, marks, marking, mode, duration): all match.
