How to Check the UPTAC 2026 Round 1 Seat Allotment Result
- Visit the official UPTAC counselling website: uptac.samarth.edu.in.
- Log in using your Registration Number or Registered Email ID, along with your password.
- Go to the 'Allotment' section on your candidate dashboard.
- Your allotted institute, course/branch, and category details will be displayed on screen.
- Download and print the allotment letter for future reference and physical reporting, if required.
What to Do After the Result: Freeze, Float, or Withdraw
Once the Round 1 result is out, allotted candidates must choose one of the following options on the portal before the deadline:
| Option | What It Means |
|---|---|
| Freeze | Candidate accepts the allotted seat as final and pays the seat acceptance fee. Once frozen, the candidate cannot participate in further counselling rounds. |
| Float | Candidate accepts the current seat but wants to be considered for an upgrade in the next round based on rank and choices. |
| Withdrawal | Candidate chooses to exit the counselling process entirely. |
Candidates who do not submit their choice or fail to pay the required fee by the deadline risk automatic cancellation of the allotted seat.
UPTAC Seat Acceptance Fee
Reported seat acceptance/confirmation fee amounts vary slightly across sources, and exact category-wise figures are not consistently confirmed. Commonly reported figures include approximately Rs 20,000 for most candidates, with a different amount reported for government institutes or specific categories. Because this detail is not uniformly confirmed across the sources reviewed, candidates should verify the exact fee applicable to their category and institute type directly on uptac.samarth.edu.in before making payment.
Required Documents
Candidates proceeding after seat allotment are generally expected to keep the following ready for verification and reporting, based on standard UPTAC counselling requirements:
- JEE Main 2026 admit card and scorecard
- Class 10 and Class 12 mark sheets and certificates
- Category certificate (SC/ST/OBC/EWS), if applicable
- Valid photo ID proof
- Recent passport-size photographs
- UPTAC registration and choice-locking confirmation
- Seat allotment letter (after download)
The complete, official document checklist should be confirmed from the UPTAC information brochure, as specific additional requirements may apply.

- Use only your original UPTAC registration credentials to log in; do not share your password.
- Cross-check the allotted institute, branch, and category shown in the allotment letter carefully before choosing freeze or float.
- Complete the seat acceptance fee payment strictly before the July 20, 2026 deadline to avoid automatic cancellation.
