DoTE is expected to announce the detailed counselling schedule shortly after the list is published. Candidates will get a window to raise grievances regarding their rank, marks normalisation, or any other concern they wish to raise. In case of any error or inaccuracy, they are advised to correct it within the stipulated time period. After the grievance redressal process is over, the online counselling will proceed to the next stage.
Counselling will begin with choice filling, where candidates can list up to 100 preferred colleges and branches in order of priority. Seat allotment will then follow across multiple rounds, based on this preference order along with rank, reservation category, and seat availability.
The complete counselling calendar is expected to be released by DoTE shortly after the rank list.
