Seat Acceptance Fee for JoSAA 2026 Round 1
Candidates allotted a seat must pay the seat acceptance fee online to confirm their option. The fee has a non-refundable processing charge and an adjustable component.
| Category | Seat Acceptance Fee |
|---|---|
| General, OBC-NCL, and EWS | Rs 35,000 |
| SC, ST, and PwD | Rs 15,000 |
Of this amount, Rs 5,000 is retained as JoSAA processing charges. The remaining amount is adjusted against the admission fee at the allotted institute during physical reporting.
What Do Freeze Float and Slide Mean?
After viewing the allotted seat, candidates must select one of three options during online reporting. Each option has a different impact on future rounds of counselling.
- Freeze: Accept the allotted seat and exit further rounds. No upgrade will be considered.
- Float: Accept the seat but stay open to upgrade. The system may shift you to a higher-preference choice later.
- Slide: Accept the seat but seek a higher-preference branch within the same institute in later rounds.
