The Joint Seat Allocation Authority will commence the JoSAA counselling process today offering admission to 62,853 engineering seats across India’s top colleges. This year, 128 institutes — including 23 IITs, 31 NITs, IIEST Shibpur, 26 IIITs and 47 Other-Government Funded Technical Institutes (Other-GFTIs) — will be participating in the JoSAA counselling based on JEE ranks.

There has been a slight increase in the total number of engineering seats in IITs — from 17,760 last year to 18,160 this year. In a continued push for gender inclusivity, female supernumerary seats have been reserved for girl students.

The number of supernumerary seats in various programs will be decided by individual IITs ensuring that every institute has at least 20% female enrolment in undergraduate program(s), as per the directions issued by the ministry of education and decision made by the IIT Council.

After the JoSAA counselling rounds conclude, the Central Seat Allocation Board (CSAB) will conduct the Direct Admission of Students Abroad (DASA) and CSAB counselling 2025 for vacant seats in NIT+ system. As per the eligibility criteria, candidates who are OCI/ PIO(I) or Non-Resident Indians (NRIs) are eligible to participate in DASA, CSAB counselling 2025.
