As of now since the Supreme Court has passed a verdict regarding no restriction of the upper age limit to sit for the Neet examinations the same should hold true for all Neet examinations of the subsequent years till any further changes notified by the supreme authority in this regard .
So as of now you should be able to appear for the Neet examination irrespective of water ages since it is not bound by any upper age limit for the examination until and unless the supreme court makes an amendment of its verdict in this regard in the subsequent years.

Yes ,
Upper age limit restriction has been removed by the supreme court
So if above 17 years and other eligibility criteria are fullfilled you can give the exam
