If they are not able to deposit the fee and their seat is allotted in the first round, they are eligible for the second round, but the choice they made above the seat allotment will not attack them in the second round. They can make their selection.

In the first round, those candidates who are assigned a seat will be required to choose one of the following options:

They must pay a one-year fee online (RTGS/NEFT) before they can participate in the second round. If their seat is upgraded, they will not have to pay the fee again; it will be adjest. If the seat is not upgraded, the seat taken will remain unchanged.

Choice No. 03 – If they are dissatisfied with their assigned seat in the first round and want to participate in the second round, they must fill Choice No. 03 first. There are no fees to pay in this case. After selecting this option, they will be able to participate in the subsequent rounds, but the allotted seat from the first round will not attack them. 

Choice No. 04 – If they are dissatisfied with their allotted seat in the first round and do not wish to participate in the second round, they must select Choice No. 04, which must be filled. Following this, they will be baffled by the subsequent counseling process.

Seat allocation is also done online in the second round. If they are assigned a seat in the second round, they must pay a one-year fee online (RTGS/NEFT) and visit the kea office in Bangalore to submit the original documents. The allocation letter will be sent from the kea office in Bangalore, and the original submitted documents will be received.
