The seat allocation process in JoSAA Counselling is based on the candidate's JEE Main and JEE Advanced ranks, preferred choices, and seat availability.

[{"selector":"#anim-8aa5eaaf-acdf-4b2b-b5aa-d88da15d7976","keyframes":{"opacity":[0,1]},"delay":0,"duration":600,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.2, 0.6, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}] [{"selector":"#anim-7e684dd7-9db6-40cb-8640-7636b4bb17e1","keyframes":{"transform":["rotate(-60deg) translate3d(0px, 58.34458%, 0) rotate(60deg)","rotate(-60deg) translate3d(0px, 0px, 0) rotate(60deg)"]},"delay":0,"duration":600,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.2, 0.6, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}] [{"selector":"#anim-6acc50bd-78cc-4632-94ac-77d941c14126","keyframes":{"opacity":[0,1]},"delay":0,"duration":600,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.2, 0.6, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}] [{"selector":"#anim-f2f4d8b0-b4d3-43f4-a890-d529e987f770","keyframes":{"transform":["translate3d(-103.90625%, 0px, 0)","translate3d(0px, 0px, 0)"]},"delay":0,"duration":600,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.2, 0.6, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}]

The process involves several rounds of counselling, during which candidates can modify their preferences or accept the allotted seat

[{"selector":"#anim-2700fb2d-88e8-460c-a414-25d745cbf180","keyframes":{"opacity":[0,1]},"delay":0,"duration":600,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.2, 0.6, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}] [{"selector":"#anim-4a1d3844-9c81-4143-8363-3c95b09dd60a","keyframes":{"transform":["rotate(-60deg) translate3d(0px, 58.34458%, 0) rotate(60deg)","rotate(-60deg) translate3d(0px, 0px, 0) rotate(60deg)"]},"delay":0,"duration":600,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.2, 0.6, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}] [{"selector":"#anim-878c5214-cd3b-4d1f-954e-c1f77ff5fd31","keyframes":{"opacity":[0,1]},"delay":0,"duration":600,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.2, 0.6, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}] [{"selector":"#anim-4c06b4f5-96df-4be2-9ae6-1fb3482e045c","keyframes":{"transform":["translate3d(-103.90625%, 0px, 0)","translate3d(0px, 0px, 0)"]},"delay":0,"duration":600,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.2, 0.6, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}]

JoSAA uses a computerized algorithm to allocate seats based on the candidate's rank, category, and preference

[{"selector":"#anim-bb83936f-865e-4885-aa67-c79b67296499","keyframes":{"opacity":[0,1]},"delay":0,"duration":600,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.2, 0.6, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}] [{"selector":"#anim-a43e254a-e416-4114-a7fe-8372726dff12","keyframes":{"transform":["rotate(-60deg) translate3d(0px, 58.34458%, 0) rotate(60deg)","rotate(-60deg) translate3d(0px, 0px, 0) rotate(60deg)"]},"delay":0,"duration":600,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.2, 0.6, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}] [{"selector":"#anim-8c304caa-d2a8-408d-8a24-85eb5169248d","keyframes":{"opacity":[0,1]},"delay":0,"duration":600,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.2, 0.6, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}] [{"selector":"#anim-b7c8f508-80dd-4dff-8753-cdb61143ac49","keyframes":{"transform":["translate3d(-103.90625%, 0px, 0)","translate3d(0px, 0px, 0)"]},"delay":0,"duration":600,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.2, 0.6, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}]

The algorithm ensures that seats are allocated in a fair and transparent manner

[{"selector":"#anim-a3af5339-36b9-4491-afb3-81ca31ded2e5","keyframes":{"opacity":[0,1]},"delay":0,"duration":600,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.2, 0.6, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}] [{"selector":"#anim-830a57c9-0054-4645-a8bd-89a533fe0646","keyframes":{"transform":["rotate(-60deg) translate3d(0px, 58.34458%, 0) rotate(60deg)","rotate(-60deg) translate3d(0px, 0px, 0) rotate(60deg)"]},"delay":0,"duration":600,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.2, 0.6, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}] [{"selector":"#anim-4f3a0078-8009-49f7-9747-6f8680f7e674","keyframes":{"opacity":[0,1]},"delay":0,"duration":600,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.2, 0.6, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}] [{"selector":"#anim-e2f0c316-1d08-4f8a-adf6-0cfd403485ec","keyframes":{"transform":["translate3d(-103.90625%, 0px, 0)","translate3d(0px, 0px, 0)"]},"delay":0,"duration":600,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.2, 0.6, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}]

Once the seat is allocated, candidates must report to the designated reporting center to complete the admission formalities

[{"selector":"#anim-96f76bf9-895d-438b-9f1d-6631ba1c1730","keyframes":{"opacity":[0,1]},"delay":0,"duration":600,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.2, 0.6, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}] [{"selector":"#anim-71915f3f-6ece-4371-b893-29a1e246f62d","keyframes":{"transform":["rotate(-60deg) translate3d(0px, 58.34458%, 0) rotate(60deg)","rotate(-60deg) translate3d(0px, 0px, 0) rotate(60deg)"]},"delay":0,"duration":600,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.2, 0.6, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}] [{"selector":"#anim-51002b2b-9aa1-47ab-8013-64faf91910f5","keyframes":{"opacity":[0,1]},"delay":0,"duration":600,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.2, 0.6, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}] [{"selector":"#anim-0176e253-0594-4daa-8c5e-43e00aba230a","keyframes":{"transform":["translate3d(-103.90625%, 0px, 0)","translate3d(0px, 0px, 0)"]},"delay":0,"duration":600,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.2, 0.6, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}]
