In view of the C0VID-19 pandemic, it has been decided to do away with the physical reporting of the candidates after seat allotment for document verification in order to confirm the seats. Instead of this , the document verification process will be completely online this year. The detailed procedure and guidelines along with fee remittance details is given on JoSAA website.

In case, the situation does not permit the physical presence of a candidate at the admitting institute, the process also will be done online. The non-compliance of any of the steps 1, 3 or 4 by the candidate will result in the removal of the candidate from the counselling process and cancellation of the seat allotted, if any.

The first round of seat allocation will be published on the JoSAA website on October 17, which will be followed by first round online reporting fee remittance, document upload, response by candidate to query (if required) and seat acceptance from October 17 to 19. There will be a total of six regular rounds of seat allocation and online reporting. Detailed schedule of all the rounds is available at the counselling link of the JoSAA website.
