CSAB

According to last year statistics, an OBC-NCL rank of around 5,751 to 11,994 is typically required for admission to IIIT Trichy through JoSAA or CSAB in the Computer Science and Engineering (CSE) stream.
It can be challenging to get a seat in the CSE branch with your OBC-NCL rank of 16,500. OBC-NCL students have a little more hope of getting admitted to the Electronics and Communication Engineering (ECE) branch, where closing ranks have reached 15,120.

No, if the candidate has physically reported at the allotted institute, then withdrawal is not permitted from the CSAB account. The CSAB headquarters will transfer the collected fee to the allotted/admitted institute. Thereafter, the cancellation and refund/forfeiture will be handled by the allotted institute as per their rules/norms.

Being an EWS candidate with a CRL rating of 62,789, you may be able to obtain greater possibilities through CSAB or JoSAA counselling as opposed to VIT Bhopal. Waiting may produce better results because these counselling sessions frequently provide access to preferred branches or higher-ranked colleges.

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.
