IIT Mumbai has 47 seats for 4-year energy engineering, IIT Roorkee has 40 seats in data science and artificial engineering, IIT Guwahati has 20 seats in energy engineering, IIT Hyderabad has 16 seats in electrical engineering with IC design and technology, IIT Gandhinagar has 20 seats each for five-year computer of science and electrical engineering, IIT Jodhpur has 32 seats for physics with specialization and chemistry, IIT Ropar has 25 seats for engineering physics, IIT Dharwar has 15 seats for chemical and biochemical engineering, 28 seats for mathematics and computing, 15 seats for civil and infrastructure engineering, 57 seats for Interdisciplinary Sciences, IIT Bhilai has 20 for Mechatronics Engineering, and IIT Palakkad has newly added 28 seats for Data Science and Engineering on which admission has been started. Admission will be given on the 383 seats of the new branches of these 10 IITs.

Ahuja informed that the JoSAA counseling for admission to IIT-NIT is underway in which students are seen busy filling more than 469 programs of 112 engineering colleges in descending order of priority. For this, considering the scope of the branches and their own interest, the students should prepare the college branch preference so that they can participate in the counseling of the next round by selecting the option of float and slide if the seat is allotted in any round of JoSAA counseling.

How to do Choice Filling

Ahuja said that the students have been given the option of choice filling only once, so students should fill the choice of the maximum number of colleges in the decreasing order of their priority. Students can get an idea of the trend of choosing colleges by looking at the opening and closing ranks of the colleges of the previous years. According to their rank, the college branches ranked below the closing rank of the previous years should also be included in the college priority list according to their interest. Before filling the colleges in JoSAA counseling, make a list of your priority colleges on paper and fill it online only after assessing it so that there is no possibility of committing a mistake. Before locking the college choice, students must do a complete check because after locking it will not be possible to change it.

Which branch will be available in which IIT on which rank’?

Amit Ahuja told that after the result of JEE-Advanced, now the biggest curiosity among the students and parents is the selection of colleges and branches. Every student wants the desired branch with a good IIT. Students whose All India rank is under-100, they are likely to get computer science in top IIT Bombay, Delhi, Kanpur, and Madras. If you look at the first choice of the students, then the CS branch of IIT Mumbai gets closed for the top 60 AIR Ranks. After this, students give second priority to the CS branch of IIT Delhi. The third priority is given to the Computer Science branch of Kanpur and Madras. Between 100 to 500 rank, MNC of Delhi, Kanpur, Electrical branch of above four IITs, and CS of Kharagpur can be found. Between 500 to 1000, there is a possibility of getting core branches of BHU, Roorkee, Hyderabad, CS of Guwahati, Mumbai, Delhi, and Kanpur. Students securing ranks between 1000 to 4000 can get computer science in Gandhi Nagar, Indore, Rupar, Mandi, Jodhpur, Dhanbad, Patna, Bhubaneshwar, and other branches in addition to computer science branches in Mumbai, Delhi, Kanpur, Kharagpur IITs Mechanical, and Chemical branch. There is a possibility of getting into civil, aerospace, production, etc. Between 4000 to 8000, students can get admission in Civil, Chemical, Metallurgy in IIT Roorkee, Guwahati, Kharagpur, Hyderabad, Varanasi, and Lower Branches in IIT Mumbai, and CS in IIT Delhi, Kanpur, Madras, Palakkad, Tirupati, Goa, Dharwad, Bhilai, and Jammu. Students securing ranks between 8000 to 12000 can get core branches at IIT Ropar, Mandi, Indore, Gandhinagar, Jodhpur, Bhubaneshwar, Patna, and Dhanbad as well as other branches of the old seven IITs such as Biological Science, Naval Architecture, Mining Engineering, polymer science, and ceramic engineering. Students who get rank between 12000 to 15000 are likely to get other branches of new IITs like Palakkad, Tirupati, Goa, Dharwad, Bhilai, and Jammu. The chances of getting an IIT branch at the above rank vary by category. Also, the 20 percent female pool quota given to girl students brightens their chances of getting a branch in the above IIT ranks far below.

Ahuja said that such students, whose JEE-Advanced All India rank is far behind, can apply to IIPE Visakhapatnam, Rajiv Gandhi Petroleum, IISER, and IIST on the basis of JEE-Advanced. The application process for all these institutes has already started.
