How does IIT Kanpur rank among engineering institutions in India for BTech programmes?

IIT Kanpur BTech programme first year fee is INR 56,160 for GEN/OBC/EWS, SC/ST/PwD, and MEB categories. For OEB category students, first-year fee is higher at INR 89,493 due to the tuition fee component. This amount includes one-time charges, semester fees, and annual fees.

The detailed IIT Kanpur BTech seat distribution for 2026 including branch-wise and category-wise seats will be published in the JoSAA seat matrix on the official JoSAA admissions portal (josaa.nic.in) ahead of counselling.

IIT Kanpur BTech seat matrix is divided by branch (such as Computer Science, Electrical, Mechanical, Civil, Aerospace, etc.) and by category-wise reservation, with gender-neutral and female-only seats for each programme, as reflected in recent JoSAA data.

The JoSAA seat matrix for IIT Kanpur will be officially released on the JoSAA website prior to counselling, showing the exact number of seats for each BTech discipline. In previous years, the total combined intake for BTech (across branches) has been around what was seen in IIT Kanpur's earlier matrix, giving an indication of similar scale this year.

Following JEE Advanced results, the JoSAA 2026 counselling process for seat allocation — which determines admission into the BTech programme at IIT Kanpur is expected to begin on June 2 with detailed schedule and rounds announced soon on the JoSAA portal.
