Hello Aspirant,

See preparatory course is different from regular courses offered in IITs and the seats for this course are allotted through JOSAA Counselling only. Now if we talk about commencement of classes for this course so for this year most probably classes will start in online mode and session for IITs has been started from November 1st due to COVID-19. In some places the colleges shall be opened within upcoming week by keeping COVID-19 Guidelines in mind.

I hope this information helps you.

Good Luck!!
