UGC (University Education Commission) is an autonomous body of Government of India. That was established in 1948. But formally inaugurated by Maulana Abul Kalam Azad  (then Education Minister) in 1953. 

UGC regulates all grant in funds to all central and center funded universities and institutions in India. 

In 1956, UGC was made statutory body of Government. Enabling UGC to coordinate, determine, and maintain standards of higher education in India.

UGC main head office is located at Bahadur Shah Zafar Marg in New Delhi. While other offices are located at Feroz Shah Road and Delhi University South Campus. 

UGC used to conduct – UGC NET JRF exam. This exam allows aspirants to be eligible for Assistant Professor jobs across UGC affiliated universities. 

It is by rule that UGC affiliated universities have to hire NET or NET JRF qualified teachers only for the post of adhoc/assistant/associate professor or for the research. 

In 2015, UGC have had handed NET exam to CBSE after the consent of HRD Ministry. Making CBSE India’s largest exam conducting body. 

However, in 2017 National Testing Agency was formed to handle top entrance and competitive exams. The conducting of NET exam was handed over to NTA after CBSE. 

NTA (National Testing Agency) made changes to the exam pattern, syllabus and introduced CBT (computer based testing) to the NET exams. 

Therefore, from UGC NET JRF Exam it is now converted to NTA UGC NET-JRF Exam.
