Commonly asked questions
Yes, it is possible to get a B.Tech in Mechanical Engineering through JOSAA (Joint Seat Allocation Authority) or CSAB (Central Seat Allocation Board) in lower NITs (National Institutes of Technology). JOSAA handles the initial seat allocation for IITs, NITs, IIEST, IIITs, and other GFTIs based on JEE Main ranks. If there are any vacant seats remaining after the JoSAA rounds, CSAB conducts special rounds to fill those, also based on JEE Main scores.
The CSAB (Central Seat Allocation Board) portal typically displays the category rank for the EWS (Economically Weaker Section) category. This rank is specific to the EWS candidates and helps determine seat allocation during counseling and admissions.
CRL refers to Common Rank List (CRL). CRL is the merit list that consists of all the ranks of students who appeared for JEE Mains exam. JEE Main CRL includes name of the candidates along with their caste, gender, JEE Main all India rank and category-wise rank.

What is CSAB?
The CSAB conducts three specialised counselling rounds to optimise seat allocation across technical institutes. The Special Round focuses on filling vacant spots within the NIT+ System following the conclusion of JoSAA. Meanwhile, the NEUT round is tailored for candidates from North-Eastern States and Union Territories, providing access to AICTE-approved institutions and regional universities. Finally, the Supernumerary round serves students from specific Union Territories, including Lakshadweep and Daman & Diu, offering dedicated seats at NIT Calicut, NIT Durgapur, and SVNIT Surat. Together, these rounds ensure diverse demographics have equitable access to premier engineering education across India.
