Karnataka PGCET 2026: Round 1 Provisional Seat Allotment Results Released

The Karnataka Examinations Authority (KEA) has officially released the provisional seat allotment results for the first round of the PGCET 2026 counselling process. Students who participated in the initial round can now access their allotment status by visiting the official KEA portal at cetonline.karnataka.gov.in/kea/pgcet2026.

To view the results, candidates are required to log in to the website using their unique PGCET number. This provisional list marks a significant step in the admission process for postgraduate courses across the state, allowing students to verify their assigned seats before the final allotment is confirmed.

Objection Window and Next Steps

Following the publication of the provisional results, the KEA has opened a window for candidates to raise any objections regarding the allotment. This facility is available until September 24. The authority will review these submissions before proceeding to the final seat allotment stage. Once the final results are published, the KEA will also release the course-wise cutoff lists, providing further clarity on admission trends.

Candidates who have been allotted a seat in this round are required to make a decision regarding their placement. The KEA provides four distinct choices for students to either accept or reject the allotment. These choices must be exercised before the commencement of the second round of counselling. Those who did not receive an allotment or are seeking an upgrade are encouraged to monitor the official website for updates on subsequent rounds and closing rank movements.
