After all JoSAA 2026 counselling rounds are completed, many engineering college seats remain unfilled. These seats become available because some candidates withdraw from counselling, fail to report to their allotted institute, do not complete admission formalities, or choose admission through another institute or counselling process. Therefore, the Central Seat Allocation Board conducts CSAB Special Rounds for NITs, IITs and GFITs to fill the remaining seats. The CSAB vacant seats 2026 include detailed information about the seat available across the participating institutes and help candidates to make informed decisions during the choice filling period.
