JoSAA College Predictor 2026 — IIT and NIT Closing Ranks

Opening rank is the highest rank (best) at which a candidate was admitted to a branch. Closing rank is the lowest rank (last) at which admission was granted during that round.

JoSAA conducts 5 rounds of seat allocation for IITs, NITs, IIITs, and GFTIs, followed by 2 CSAB special rounds specifically for vacant seats in NITs and IIITs.

NITs reserve 50% of their total seats for candidates belonging to the state where the NIT is located (Home State quota). The other 50% is open to other states (OS quota).

No. Once you submit and lock your choices on the JoSAA portal, they cannot be modified under any circumstances. If unlocked, the system automatically locks the last saved choices.

Once a seat is allocated, you must upload required documents, select seat options (Freeze, Slide, Float), and pay the seat acceptance fee (typically ₹35,000 for General) online.
