Hello,

The cut off tends to change in subsequent rounds because the number of vacant seat will reduce in the subsequent rounds so the cut off rank changes. The cut off is determined by considering various factors such as total number of candidates applied for counselling, difficulty level of examination and total number of seats available etc. Depending on these factors the cut off may increase or decrease.
