The Joint Seat Allocation Authority (JoSAA) confirmed that Mock Allotment Round 1 is live from 2:00 PM today, June 8, 2026 at the official portal @josaa.nic.in. All registered candidates who have filled at least one choice before the June 7 cutoff at 8:00 PM can now see their simulated seat allocation. This is a non-binding preview of the seat likely to be allotted in the actual Round 1 on June 13. Two mock rounds — June 8 and June 10 — are available before the final choice lock deadline on June 11 at 5:00 PM.
With 67,323 seats across 23 IITs, 31 NITs, 26 IIITs, and 40 plus GFTIs at stake, candidates must use both mock rounds strategically to finalise their preference lists before June 11.
