Karnataka PGCET 2026 Mock Seat Allotment Results Expected Today

The Karnataka Examinations Authority (KEA) is set to release the mock seat allotment results for the Karnataka Post Graduate Common Entrance Test (PGCET) 2026 today, September 18. Candidates who participated in the option entry process have been awaiting the results, which were originally scheduled for release on September 17.

The delay in the announcement follows a decision by the KEA to extend the deadline for the option entry window, which officially closed at 10:00 AM today. The authority requires time to process the preferences submitted by all candidates before the mock allotment results can be generated and published. Based on previous scheduling patterns, the results are anticipated to be available after 6:00 PM this evening.

Understanding the Mock Allotment Process

The mock seat allotment serves as a preliminary indicator for candidates, allowing them to gauge their chances of securing a seat in their preferred MBA or MCA institutes across Karnataka based on their current choices. Once the results are declared, the KEA will provide a designated window for students to modify or reorder their exercised options if they wish to adjust their preferences before the final seat allotment process begins.

While the mock allotment provides essential guidance, it is not the final seat allocation. The KEA has not yet issued an official statement regarding a revised counselling schedule for the first round of seat allotment. It remains uncertain whether the original timeline will be maintained or if the authority will adjust the subsequent dates to account for the current delay. Candidates are advised to monitor the official KEA website for the most accurate and up-to-date information regarding the revised schedule and any changes to the modification window.
