The deadline to pay the JoSAA Round 1 seat acceptance fee is today, June 26, 2026 , by 5 PM. Candidates must also upload all required documents by this time. Failure to complete these steps will result in the forfeiture of the allotted seat.
Fee Payment and Document Upload
Students must access the official JoSAA website, josaa.nic.in, to make the payment. Log in using your application number, password, and security pin. Navigate to your candidate profile to proceed with the payment and document submission.
The process involves checking your Round 1 seat allotment. You will then select your option to freeze, float, or slide your seat. Following this, you will upload the necessary documents and pay the seat acceptance fee. Upon successful payment, download your seat acceptance letter as a PDF for your records.
Payment Issues and Correction Window
If payment issues occur before the deadline, such as a failed transaction, a correction window will be available until June 29, 2026 . This extension applies only to payments attempted before the June 26 deadline.
