Q:   Will there be any JoSAA spot round of seat allocation at any of the IITs?

A:

NO. There will be no spot round of seat allocation at any of the IITs.

Q:   What is the lowest rank required to get a seat through JoSAA or CSAB counseling?

A:

The least rank to get a seat through JoSAA or CSAB counselling can vary greatly depending on the course and the institute. However, here are some general observations:

For JoSAA counselling, candidates can get admission in NITs, IIITs, IITs, and GFTIs1. While admission is possible up to a 3 Lacs rank in JEE Main, securing admission in popular NITs and B.Tech specializations is limited for a low rank in JEE Main (above 1,00,000).
After the conclusion of six rounds of JoSAA counselling, two special rounds are conducted by CSAB (Central Seat Allocation Board) for the vacant seats1. The list of vacant seats shall be displayed in advance so that the candidates can plan college options and participate in the counselling process.

Please note that these are approximate figures and the actual cutoff may vary each year based on several factors such as the difficulty level of the JEE Main exam, number of applicants, number of seats available, and the category of the candidate.

For the most accurate information, I recommend checking the official JoSAA or CSAB websites during the admission season as they release the category-wise opening and closing ranks after each round of counselling.

Check out this article for more details: Best Colleges for Low JEE Main Rank/Scores

Q:   How can I get admission in an IIIT after 6 rounds of JoSAA?

A:

There are a few ways to get admission in an IIIT Delhi after 6 grounds of JoSAA.

  • Spot Round: The Spot Round is conducted by JoSAA after the 6 grounds of counseling. In this round, vacant seats are filled on a first-come, first-served basis
  • Direct Admission: Some IIITs offer direct admission to students who have a good academic record and have scored well in the JEE Main or other entrance exams.
  • Special Grounds: JoSAA conducts special grounds to fill vacant seats after the Spot Round. These grounds are usually conducted in the month of July or August.
  • Management Quota: Some IIITs offer seats under the management quota. These seats are filled through a separate process, and the feels are usually higher than the regular seats.

If you are unable to get admission in an IIIT through JoSAA, you can try applying for admission through one of the other methods mentioned above. You can also try applying for admission to other top engineering colleges in India.

Q:   Is a domicile Certificate required for admission to NITs?

A:

Candidates do not need to present a domicile certificate in order to be admitted to IIT, NIT, or IIIT via JEE. The only university where admission is granted based on the Home State Quota is NIT. The state in which you take your 12th board test is used to determine admission, not your home state. When receiving JoSAA counselling, the domicile certificate is not necessary. The JEE score of the applicants determines their admission.

Q:   If I pay seat acceptance fee and partial admission fee in JOSAA & participate in CSAB and got a seat? Will these fees be adjusted there?

A:
If you have are allotted any seat in JoSAA counseling and you have paid your seat acceptance fees, and if you got allotted any seat in CSAB special round counseling and you accept it, then in that case you don't have to pay the seat acceptance fees, because you have already paid once in JoSAA.

Q:   Which colleges can I get through JoSAA or CSAB with 66000 rank in JEE? I have a domicile in Chhattisgarh.

A:

You can apply for admission to a number of NITs (National Institutes of Technology), IIITs (Indian Institutes of Information Technology), and other GFTIs (Government Funded Technical Institutes) through JoSAA (Joint Seat Allocation Authority) or CSAB (Central Seat Allocation Board) counselling if you have a JEE Main rank of 66000 and you live in Chhattisgarh. The following are some options to think about: NITs: Depending on their various cutoff ranks from prior years, you may have opportunities at NITs like NIT Raipur, NIT Nagpur, NIT Surathkal, and NIT Warangal. IIITs: You may be able to access establishments such as IIIT Guwahati, IIIT Kalyani, IIITDM Jabalpur, IIIT Kota, and IIIT Naya Raipur. additional GFTIs: A number of additional institutions take part in CSAB counselling, including GFTI Hyderabad, GFTI Gandhinagar, and GFTI Bhopal.

Q:   What should be my rank in JEE Advanced to get admission in top IITs?

A:
To secure admission to the prestigious Indian Institutes of Technology (IITs), obtaining a rank around 5000 in the JEE Advanced examination is generally considered necessary. However, for admission to the top IITs, achieving a rank within the approximate range of 2000-2500 is typically required. It's important to note that the exact cutoff can differ each year due to factors such as the number of candidates, the difficulty level of the exam, and the availability of seats.

To get a government engineering college in Punjab through JoSAA, aim for a JEE Mains rank within 10,000–30,000 for top colleges like PEC and NIT Jalandhar. Rankings of 70,000 or higher may be adequate for state quotas or lower-tier universities, depending on the branch and category.
