The Joint Seat Allocation Authority (JoSAA) released Round 3 seat allotment results and cut-offs for the 2026 academic session. Candidates can now check their status and required ranks on josaa.nic.in. This data impacts admissions to 138 technical institutions, including IITs, NITs, IIITs, and GFTIs. IIT admissions rely on JEE Advanced ranks. NIT+ admissions use JEE Main ranks. Students allocated new seats or seeking upgrades must complete online reporting, document uploads, and fee payment. Failure to do so by the deadline will forfeit the allocated seat and disqualify candidates from further rounds.
