Allotted candidates must carefully choose between three options — Freeze, Float, or Exit — before the counselling deadline.
- Freeze option: Candidates who accept the allotted seat and do not wish to participate in further rounds of counselling can choose to freeze their seat. To freeze their seat, candidates must pay the non-refundable confirmation fee within the stipulated time.
- Float option: Candidates who have been allotted a seat but wish to remain open to the possibility of securing a higher-preference NLU in subsequent rounds may opt for the float option. However, even these candidates need to pay the confirmation fee.
- Exit option: Candidates who decide not to continue with the counselling process at any stage after registration can choose to exit.
Following this, they must pay the confirmation fee and complete the admission process at their respective NLUs by January 29.
According to the official schedule, the counselling will be held for a total of five rounds, with the third, fourth, and fifth seat allotment result release scheduled for February 5, May 2, and May 15, 2026, respectively.
