CT Group of Institutions (CTGI), Maqsudan, admits students through different routes because each course is linked with a separate exam body, counselling authority, and seat type. B.Tech applicants may use JEE Main or IKGPTU counselling, while B.Sc. HHA applicants follow the NCHMCT JEE route for government quota seats. Fees vary by seat route, management quota B.Tech seats usually have a higher fee than government quota seats, and the Early Bird Scholarship can reduce tuition fee by up to 50%.

Students should first match their course with the right admission authority. The same campus can have IKGPTU based engineering admission, GNDU based law merit, NCHMCT based hotel management admission, PCI based pharmacy rules, and PSBTE&IT based diploma admission in one admission season.

  • B.Tech Lateral Entry (LEET): Students can enter through IKGPTU LEET counselling or directly through diploma merit.
  • M.Tech: GATE and IKGPTU PG counselling are used for admission.
  • B.Sc. HHA (Hotel Management): NCHMCT JEE is compulsory for government quota admission.
  • B.A. LL.B. / B.Com LL.B.: Admission depends on GNDU merit or Class 10+2 academic performance.
  • B.Pharmacy / D.Pharmacy: GPAT, PSEB 10+2 merit, and PCI norms apply as per the course route.

CT Group of Institutions Admission Process 2026

CT Group admission starts by selecting the correct course authority. Once the route is clear, the student can register, upload documents, attend counselling, report to campus, and pay the required fee.

Step 1: Choose the program and admission authority. Students must confirm the correct body for their course: IKGPTU for B.Tech/MBA/MCA, NCHMCT for B.Sc. HHA, GNDU for Law, PCI/Punjab Pharmacy Council for Pharmacy, and PSBTE&IT for Polytechnic Diplomas. Each body follows its own portal and deadline calendar.

Step 2: Register on the right portal. IKGPTU-affiliated courses require registration through the IKGPTU centralized counselling portal. For B.Sc. HHA through NCHMCT JEE, students register at nchmct.nic.in.

Step 3: Upload the required documents. B.Tech applicants upload Class 10 and 12 marksheets, transfer certificate, community/caste certificate if applicable, and JEE Main scorecard. LEET applicants also submit all diploma semester marksheets. Law applicants submit Class 12 marksheets and community certificates as per GNDU norms. Pharmacy applicants upload qualifying marksheets and GPAT scorecard where needed. M.Tech applicants submit their B.Tech degree or provisional certificate, all semester marksheets, and GATE scorecard.

Step 4: Add preferences and join counselling. For B.Tech government quota seats, students select CT Group of Institutions during IKGPTU centralized counselling and add branch preferences. B.Sc. HHA applicants attend NCHMCT JEE counselling rounds. Students applying directly for Law, Polytechnic, Fashion Design, BHMCT, or BTTM attend counselling on campus at the concerned CT Group institute.

Step 5: Accept the seat and report to campus. After allotment through IKGPTU, NCHMCT, GNDU, or direct admission, the student must report to the relevant CT Group campus within the given window with original documents. Physical reporting is required for seat confirmation.

Step 6: Verify documents and pay the fee. After document checking, the student pays the applicable program fee at the accounts office to confirm admission. Hostel admission is applied for separately during reporting and depends on availability.

The scholarship slab table is useful before admission because it affects the fee a student pays at the time of seat confirmation.

CT Group of Institutions Admissions FAQs

Que. For B.Tech at CT Group, how are JEE Main scores and Class 12 marks used?

Ans. JEE Main is used first for government quota B.Tech seats under IKGPTU centralized counselling. Class 12 PCM percentage is used for management quota seats filled directly by CT Group. A student with a good JEE Main score should try the IKGPTU route first. A student without JEE Main may still apply through management quota if seats are available.

Ques. Does D.Pharmacy allow lateral entry into B.Pharmacy at CT Group?

Ans. Yes. A student with a PCI-recognized Diploma in Pharmacy can apply for B.Pharmacy LEET at CTIPS/CTCP. The student enters the second year of the four-year B.Pharmacy course, so the remaining duration becomes 3 years. The admission follows PCI norms and Punjab Pharmacy Council rules. LEET does not mean entry into the third year, it means the first year is skipped.

Ques. Is NCHMCT JEE needed for every B.Sc. HHA seat at CTIHM?

Ans. NCHMCT JEE is compulsory for government quota B.Sc. HHA seats at CT Institute of Hotel Management because those seats are allotted through NCHMCT centralized counselling linked with JNU affiliation. For management quota or direct admission seats, CTIHM may use Class 12 merit, English as a subject, and minimum 50% marks instead of making NCHMCT JEE compulsory. Students should confirm the current direct admission process with CTIHM.

Que. Can a CT Group Polytechnic student apply for LEET B.Tech at CTIEMT after completing the diploma?

Ans. Yes. A student who completes a 3-year Engineering Diploma from CT Group's Polytechnic Wing, affiliated to PSBTE&IT, can apply for lateral entry into B.Tech at CTIEMT through IKGPTU LEET counselling. The required diploma score is minimum 45% aggregate, or 40% for reserved categories. Being from CT Group Polytechnic does not give automatic preference because LEET admission follows IKGPTU merit-based counselling.

Ques. What age rule applies to B.Pharmacy, Pharm.D, and M.Pharm admission?

Ans. For B.Pharmacy at CTIPS/CTCP, the student must be at least 17 years old as on December 31 of the admission year, as per PCI rules. PCI does not set an upper age limit for B.Pharmacy. Pharm.D also requires minimum age 17 years, and NIOS students are not eligible. M.Pharm has no age bar, so working pharmacists with a valid B.Pharmacy degree and the required marks can apply.

Ques. Is direct B.Tech admission possible if IKGPTU counselling does not give a seat?

Ans. Yes. If a student does not get a seat through IKGPTU centralized counselling, or does not receive the preferred branch through open merit, CT Group may fill management quota B.Tech seats through Class 12 PCM merit. Students can contact the CT Group Maqsudan admissions office for this route. Management quota seats usually have a different and usually higher fee, so students should check the applicable fee before confirming admission.
