Log in to JoSAA with your JEE credentials. Then you would need to list your preferred institutes and branches in order of priority. Mention IIIT Vadodara (Institute Code 308) and your desired branch (CSE or IT) higher in your list to increase allotment chances based on your rank.

The NIT Srinagar BTech seat allotment is first done through the JoSAA counseling. The allotment of seats is based on a candidate's JEE Mains score. However, if after the seat allotment, there are still some vacant seats for the BTech course, they are filled through the CSAB counseling.
