The postponement of JEE Mains is likely to result in a clash with state entrance exams, which can create problems for students since many students will be appearing simultaneously for JEE Main and state entrance exams as the seats in IITs, NITs and other central universities, institutes are limited in number.

As per the MHT CET exam date 2022 and KEAM 2022 exam date mentioned in the datasheet, there will be a clash between MH CET 2022, and KEAM 2022 with JEE Main 2022 exam date. In an ideal situation, these exams are expected to revise their datasheet, but there's no confirmation on this as of yet. Candidates can keep checking the official websites for further updates.
