How much fee do I need to pay to cancel the seat allotted by KEA after completion of all rounds for MCA admission? I belong to ST category.

Before the first round of counselling starts, KEA conducts a mock allotment round to familiarise candidates with the Karnataka PGCET counselling process, including the release of mock allotment results, and mock round cutoffs.

Candidates will not get admission into Karnataka PGCET participating colleges based on the mock allotment results.

Karnataka PGCET draft seat matrix is released soon after the result declaration. The draft seat matrix indicates the total seats available at Karnataka PGCET participating colleges. These seats are submitted by the PGCET participating institutes to KEA to provide an idea before the counselling process begins.

Karnataka PGCET verification slip is downloadable from the official exam website. Candidates have to login to download the PGCET verification slip. PGCET verification slip is required during the counselling process. Candidates who have the Karnataka PGCET verification slip will be allowed to participate in the option entry process.

With a PGCET MBA rank of around 5000 under the OBC-NCL category, plus having the NCC quota, you stand a good chance of getting admission into reputed colleges. Based on previous year cutoffs, colleges like Acharya Institute of Technology, Dayananda Sagar University, RNS Institute of Technology, NMAM Institute of Technology, IFIM Institutions, BN Bahadur Institute of Management, and Christ Academy are all possible options. Since OBC seats usually go higher and NCC quota adds weightage, you should actively participate in all counselling rounds for better chances.

The results for the Karnataka PGCET exam 2025 are scheduled to be released in the month of July. After that, the counseling process for PGCET is scheduled between August and October. Candidates who have appeared for the Karnataka PGCET exam are advised to check the official website during July to remain updated on the result decleration for Karnataka PGCET and further details on the counseling process.
