Hello

Irrespective of whether you have been alloted a seat or not, if you wish to participate in further rounds of IPU counselling, then you will need to submit the required amount of money.

So submit that amount of money to participate in further rounds of counselling.

Thank You!!!

If you've been allotted a seat in the first round of IPU counselling but are not satisfied with it and wish to explore options in subsequent rounds.

Firstly, you must pay the part academic fee, which is Rs. 60,000 in your case. This payment confirms your acceptance of the allotted seat, although you are not committed to joining that particular course or institution yet.

According to the Guru Gobind Singh Indraprastha University, if you fail to pay this fee, you will forfeit your claim to the allotted seat and will not be allowed to participate in any further counselling rounds. After paying the fee, you need to choose the "Float" option within the counselling portal.

This indicates that you are interested in being considered for a higher preference in the upcoming rounds while holding onto your current seat as a backup.

You can then participate in the subsequent rounds, including the sliding round and potentially even spot rounds, to try and secure a better seat based on your preferences and merit.

Remember to stay informed about the counselling schedule and any updates on the official IPU website to ensure you don't miss out on important deadlines or announcements.

Good luck!!
