I. GENERAL
1) BACKGROUND:
Admission to NITs, IIITs, and GFTIs were conducted through JOSAA 2015 and admission/
reporting in different participating institutes from 1st to 4th round was evaluated by the core
committee of CSAB on 5th August 2015. The analysis of the admission data indicated that
although in every round seats were allocated in different participating institutes but final
reporting at the allotted institutes were lower (approx. 3000+ seats).
Further majority of the seats (approx. 50 %) on which candidates did not report, they are
either from Computer Science or Electronics and Communication Engineering. These all seats
were kept blocked by candidates having higher ranking, till 4th round. Therefore, the CSAB core
committee decided to hold one special round of counselling for vacant seats.
As per JoSAA meeting held on 1st Aug 2015, CSAB -2015 has been authorized to take
independent decision to hold another round of counselling, therefore proposed next
counselling will be held under CSAB 2015. This round may be called as Special Round of CSAB
2015 for NITs+ systems.
The committee reviewed the whole situation, in view of the paucity of time and offered
maximum opportunity to the candidates who have already taken admission at different
institutes and who could not joined the previous counselling the different modalities were
decided.

PARTITIONING OF CANDIDATES
7) For the purpose of seat allocation, qualified candidates are partitioned into different categories
based on (birth) categories, presence or absence of disability and nationality. On the basis of
such a partition, each candidate is assigned a category tag as given below.
(i) Category tag GEN: This is assigned to Indian nationals who do NOT belong to OBC-NCL, SC or
ST category (or who fail to produce valid OBC-NCL, SC or ST certificate) and are NOT Persons
with Disabilities.
(ii) Category tag GEN-PwD: This is assigned to Indian nationals who do NOT belong to OBC-NCL,
SC or ST category (or who fail to produce valid OBC-NCL, SC or ST certificate) and are Persons
with Disabilities. Candidates must produce a valid PwD certificate to be assigned this tag.
(iii) Category tag OBC-NCL: This is assigned to Indian nationals who belong to the Non-Creamy
Layer of Other Backward Classes and are NOT Persons with Disabilities. Candidates must
produce a valid OBC-NCL certificate to be assigned this tag. The backward class must be in the
Central List of OBCs.
(iv) Category tag OBC-NCL-PwD: This is assigned to Indian nationals who belong to the NonCreamy Layer of Other Backward Classes and are Persons with Disabilities. Candidates must
produce valid OBC-NCL and PwD certificates to be assigned this tag. The backward class must be
in the Central List of OBCs.
Thus, candidates belonging to the Non-Creamy Layer of Other Backward Classes are divided
into two mutually exclusive categories and are assigned either one of the tags OBC-NCL or OBCNCL-PwD.

NOT Persons with Disabilities. Candidates must produce a valid ST certificate to be assigned this
