Alerts and Updates for SHRESHTA

The SHRESHTA NETS Scheme 2025 exam was conducted on June 1, 2025, as part of the initiative to provide quality education to meritorious Scheduled Castes (SC) students in CBSE-affiliated residential schools. City intimation slips were released on May 20, followed by admit cards on May 25. The application window for this exam was open from April 15 to May 5, 2025.

The National Testing Agency (NTA) has released updates regarding the SHRESHTA NETS 2025 exam, including city allotment intimations and admit card releases. The scheme continues to focus on providing seats for SC students in top private residential schools across India. Candidates were also allowed to make corrections to their application forms for the 2025 exam cycle.

Eligibility criteria for the SHRESHTA NETS Scheme 2025 have been detailed, covering age limits, academic qualifications, and category requirements. This scheme targets SC students for admission into high-quality residential schools for Classes 9 and 11. Interested candidates are encouraged to review the specifics before applying for future cycles.

The Department of Social Justice and Empowerment, Government of India, has warned against fraudulent claims demanding payment for registration under the SHRESHTA scheme. Such actions are considered misrepresentation, and candidates are advised to be cautious and apply only through official channels.

Every year, the SHRESHTA scheme aims to select around 3,000 meritorious SC students through the National Entrance Test conducted by the NTA. The initiative focuses on filling educational gaps in SC-dominant areas by providing access to the best private residential schools for students in Classes 9 and 11.

Earlier updates for SHRESHTA NETS 2024 indicated a rescheduling of the exam date to May 11, 2024, due to elections in certain states of India. This demonstrates the NTA's efforts to accommodate external factors while ensuring the examination process remains smooth for candidates.
