No regulator's approved intake is loaded for this institute, so the seat column says Not recorded.
Seats through JoSAA counselling are the institute's seats in the JoSAA seat matrix: every category, both seat pools (gender-neutral and female-only, the female-only figure including female supernumerary seats) and, where they apply, both home state and other state quotas.

Cutoffs
The first and last rank allotted a seat here in each counselling round, from the counselling body's own allotment lists. Ranks change every year, so treat them as a guide, not a promise.
These are JEE Advanced ranks as JoSAA published them. OPEN rows give the common rank list (CRL) rank; EWS, OBC-NCL, SC, ST and PwD rows give the rank within that category, as JoSAA prints it. Quotas: AI All India. 48 ranks on JoSAA's separate preparatory rank list (printed with a P) are left out, as they cannot be compared with these.
Showing 9 of 521 rows: Round 5, Gender-Neutral seats, AI quota, OPEN category.
