KCET Round 2 result: The Karnataka Examinations Authority (KEA) had originally scheduled the KCET 2026 Round 2 provisional seat allotment result for August 19. That date has since been postponed, and as of now, KEA has not announced a confirmed new release date. Candidates are advised to keep checking the official counselling portal, cetonline.karnataka.gov.in, for the allotment link rather than relying on any fixed time.
The delay follows an extended window for candidates to revise their college and course preferences based on the Round 2 mock allotment, which KEA released on August 17. Once seats are allotted, results can be checked using the CET application number and date of birth. This round is significant for the roughly 3.3 lakh candidates who appeared for KCET 2026, many of whom are hoping to upgrade from their Round 1 allotment or secure a seat for the first time.
What Led to the Delay
KCET Round 2 result option entry initially closed on August 13. After the mock allotment came out on August 17, KEA opened a fresh modification window, letting candidates add, delete, or reorder their choices based on their indicative allotment. This window was extended in stages, most recently closing on August 20 at 9:00 AM. Because data locking and final processing follow the close of this window, the provisional seat allotment result has moved past its original date, and no fresh date has been officially confirmed yet.
