The Joint Admission Committee (JAC) Delhi has officially released the JAC Delhi Counselling Cutoff 2026 for Round 1 following the seat allotment result announced on June 15, 2026. The cutoff, in the form of opening rank (OR) and closing rank (CR), is now live for four of the five participating institutes on the official portal jacdelhi.admissions.nic.in.
Candidates who appeared for JEE Main 2026 and registered for JAC Delhi counselling can now check their allotted institute and branch's opening and closing ranks for Round 1. This data is critical for deciding whether to Freeze or Float your seat before Round 2.
Four out of five participating institutes have published their Round 1 OR-CR data:
Delhi Technological University (DTU) — Round 1 OR-CR available
Netaji Subhas University of Technology (NSUT) — Round 1 OR-CR available
Delhi Skill and Entrepreneurship University (DSEU) — Round 1 OR-CR available

FAQ: What is the JAC Delhi Round 1 Cutoff 2026? The JAC Delhi Round 1 cutoff 2026 refers to the opening rank (first seat allotted) and closing rank (last seat allotted) for each branch and category in DTU, NSUT, IIITD, and DSEU after the first round of seat allotment on June 15, 2026.
While the official PDF is available for download at jacdelhi.admissions.nic.in, historically CSE at DTU has seen closing ranks between 600–1,200 (Delhi General) in Round 1. Candidates are advised to download the official OR-CR PDFs for accurate, category-wise, branch-wise figures. Do not rely on estimated cutoffs — always verify from the official source.

Decide: Freeze (lock your current seat) or Float (upgrade in Round 2 if a better option becomes available).
Report physically to your allotted institute for document verification between June 17 and June 25, 2026, in rank order.

Class 10 Mark Sheet and Certificate
Class 12 Mark Sheet and Certificate

FAQ: What happens if I did not get a seat in JAC Delhi Round 1? Candidates with "No Seat Allotted" status in Round 1 do not need to take any action or pay any fees. They are automatically carried forward to Round 2 of JAC Delhi 2026 counselling, where vacancies from Round 1 withdrawals and migrations are redistributed.
| Event | Date |
| Round 1 Seat Allotment Result | June 15, 2026 |
| Document Verification (Round 1) | June 17–25, 2026 |
| New Registration & Choice Filling (Fresh Window) | June 26, 2026 |
| Round 2 Seat Allotment Result | July 1, 2026 |
| Total Regular Rounds | 4 |
| Additional Rounds | 1 Upgradation + 1 Online Spot Round (if required) |
This is the most critical decision after Round 1 allotment:
Freeze: You are satisfied with the allotted seat. Lock it in. No further upgrades will be processed for you.
Float: You want to try for a better branch or institute in subsequent rounds. Your current seat is held, and you will be automatically considered for upgrades in Round 2 based on your locked choices.
Candidates who Float and do not get an upgrade in Round 2 retain their Round 1 seat. Choosing Float does not risk losing your existing allotment as long as you complete document verification.
FAQ: When will IGDTUW JAC Delhi cutoff 2026 be released? The JAC Delhi cutoff 2026 for Indira Gandhi Delhi Technical University for Women (IGDTUW) has not yet been released. It is expected to be published on jacdelhi.admissions.nic.in shortly. Candidates should check the official portal regularly for updates.
JAC Delhi 2026: Delhi Region vs Outside Delhi — Key Difference
JAC Delhi operates a dual-quota system. Delhi Region candidates — those with a valid Delhi domicile — have access to a significantly larger proportion of seats and have historically secured admissions at relaxed closing ranks across all institutes and branches. Outside Delhi (OD) candidates compete for a smaller quota, meaning their qualifying ranks need to be considerably higher.
FAQ: Can I register fresh for JAC Delhi 2026 if I missed the first registration window? Yes. JAC Delhi 2026 will open a fresh registration and choice filling window on June 26, 2026 for candidates who missed the initial registration. No fresh registration is permitted for the Spot Round.
JAC Delhi conducts centralised online counselling for BTech and BArch admissions to five premier Delhi government technical universities based on JEE Main 2026 scores. The five participating institutes are DTU, NSUT, IIITD, IGDTUW, and DSEU. The counselling process for each round includes registration, choice filling, seat allotment, fee payment, and physical reporting at the allotted institute.
