Missing the June 25 fee payment deadline means your allotted seat is cancelled automatically. JAC Delhi does not send individual reminders — you are responsible for tracking the portal. If your payment goes through but doesn't reflect in your login, the amount is refunded within 7 working days. In that case, pay again immediately and contact the JAC helpdesk at payment.jacdelhi2026@dtu.ac.in with your transaction details. Do not wait for the refund to pay again — your seat is at risk.
Seat Acceptance Fee — Amount, Payment Method, and What It Covers
The JAC Delhi 2026 seat acceptance fee is ₹95,000 for all four participating institutions — DTU, NSUT, IIIT Delhi, and IGDTUW. This is not an extra charge. The ₹95,000 is adjusted against your first semester tuition fee at the allotted institute, so you are essentially paying the semester fee upfront to confirm your seat. IIIT Delhi candidates must also pay a separate Alumni Association fee of ₹2,000 directly to the Alumni Association at the time of physical verification — this is not collected on the portal. Payment must be made online through the JAC Delhi portal or via SBI e-Challan at any SBI branch. Demand drafts, cheques, and cash at university counters are not accepted. Check your net banking and card single-transaction limits before the result drops — portal congestion during peak hours is common.
Freeze vs Upgradation — Which Option Should You Pick?
After checking your Round 1 allotment, you must choose between two options. Freeze means you are fully satisfied with the allotted seat and do not want to participate in further rounds. Once you freeze, the seat is locked permanently and cannot be unfrozen. Choose this only if you got your first preference at your target institute. Upgradation (equivalent to Float in JoSAA) means you accept the current seat but stay in the pool for better options in Rounds 2, 3, and 4. JAC Delhi automatically considers you for higher choices — you don't need to do anything extra. Candidates not allotted their first-choice seat in Round 1 are automatically placed in the upgradation pool. Use the JAC Delhi College Predictor to estimate whether your target branch or institute is realistically achievable in later rounds before deciding. Most candidates with mid-range ranks should go with upgradation — Round 1 cutoffs are typically tighter than later rounds.
Expected JAC Delhi Round 1 Closing Ranks 2026 — Institute Wise
- IIIT Delhi — CSE (Outside Delhi, General): AIR 1,000 to 1,250 (expected)
- DTU — CSE (Outside Delhi, General): AIR 2,100 to 2,400 (expected)
- NSUT — Computer Engineering (Outside Delhi, General): AIR 2,500 to 2,700 (expected)
- IGDTUW — CSE (Women, Outside Delhi): AIR 3,500 to 4,500 (expected)
- DTU — ECE and IT branches: AIR 3,000 to 5,500 (expected)
- NSUT — ECE and IT branches: AIR 3,500 to 6,000 (expected)
- Delhi region quota candidates typically see 15 to 25% relaxation in closing ranks
These are estimates based on previous years' trends. The actual jacdelhi.admissions.nic.in portal will publish official opening and closing ranks (OR-CR) after each round. You can also cross-check historical cutoffs for DTU and NSUT on their respective pages to understand year-on-year movement.

What If You Didn't Get a Seat in JAC Delhi Round 1?
Not getting a seat in Round 1 is not the end — it happens to thousands of candidates every year, especially those who prioritized top branches and institutes in their choice list. The system processes choices from the top and allots the best available seat at the time of processing. If no vacancy existed for any of your choices in Round 1, you remain active in the system and will be considered in Rounds 2, 3, and 4 as frozen candidates vacate or withdraw seats. You do not need to re-register. Stay updated on JAC Delhi 2026 official announcements and check the portal regularly. Meanwhile, also consider using the Engineering College Predictor to explore other counselling options running in parallel — UPTAC for AKTU colleges, state counsellings, and private university admissions often have overlapping timelines.
JAC Delhi 2026 vs JoSAA — Can You Participate in Both?
Yes, you can participate in both JAC Delhi 2026 and JoSAA counselling simultaneously. They are completely independent processes. If you get a seat in both, you must decide which one to accept and formally withdraw from the other — holding seats in both is not permitted. The seat acceptance fees paid to JAC Delhi and JoSAA are separate. If you accept a JoSAA seat and withdraw from JAC Delhi within the withdrawal window, your JAC Delhi fee refund follows JAC Delhi's own refund policy. Coordinate your timelines carefully — the nta.ac.in portal has JEE Main-linked data you may need for both processes.
