  • Being listed in the merit list does not confirm admission. Candidates must finish counselling, seat acceptance, and admission formalities within the given deadlines.
  • Registered email ID and mobile number cannot be corrected later if entered incorrectly during application. Candidates must enter correct contact details during registration.
