Question 5: I have got a seat in the first round of JoSAA counselling but I am not interested in it. I want to wait for the next round to get a better seat. Do I need to do anything in this round?
Answer: After getting a seat in any round of JoSAA, you will have to complete certain steps for online reporting, which include (i) seat acceptance, (ii) document upload and (iii) seat acceptance fee payment. If you wish to be considered for a higher priority institute/higher priority seat within the allotted institute in subsequent rounds (except the final round), you will have to accept the seat and choose the float/slide option. If you fail to complete any of the three steps of online reporting for seat acceptance, your allotted seat will be cancelled and you will not be able to participate in the seat allocation process.
