Hi,

Only for general candidates the CRL rank is considered during JOSAA counselling.

If you belong to any of the reserved categories, then your category rank will be used for counselling. Try to fill many choices of branches and institutions during the choice filling procedure.

Since you know, there are limited seats for a particular category in any branch in any of the institutions so first your category will be seen for your first choice and then it will be checked that if seat is available for your category. If seat seat is available then good enough, you will be alloted that seat, if not then your respective next choice will be checked for seat availability. This will go on till you may or may not get a seat in your preferred branch/institution.

Hope that was helpful.
