Central Seat Allocation Board

The Central Seat Allocation Board runs the rounds that come after JoSAA closes. Seats fall vacant at the NITs, IIITs and other government-funded technical institutes when candidates withdraw or fail to report, and CSAB fills them through special rounds held in July and August. It also runs the supernumerary rounds for candidates from the North Eastern states and the Union Territories, which are additional seats rather than a share of the general pool. For a candidate this is the last route into that group of institutions in a given year.
