West Bengal engineering aspirants get a crucial update as WBJEE 2026 Decentralised Counselling releases Phase 1 Round 2 seat allotment today, September 20, 2026. The decision fixes institute, branch, and fee headroom for many. Anxiety now shifts to login steps, reporting cut-offs, and upgrade choices that prevent seat cancellation.
Decentralised counselling means the portal allots a seat, but institutes complete verification and admission. Check the portal banner for the exact release time today, then download the allotment letter. Follow reporting instructions stated there. Keep documents organised and originals protected. Missing the institute reporting window, even after online acceptance, triggers automatic cancellation.

Visit the official counselling portal and log in using application number, password, and security pin. Open the "Seat Allotment Round 2" tab, review program and category, and download the allotment letter. Read the reporting mode, venue, and last date mentioned there.
Complete seat acceptance on the portal within the shown window. Then report to the allotted institute as instructed. Carry originals and photocopies of admit card, rank card, allotment letter, and government identity. Add address proof, academic mark sheets, transfer or migration certificate, and category or income documents if applicable. Keep two recent passport photos clipped.
Choose Freeze if satisfied with the allotted seat and institute. Select Upgrade to retain the seat while seeking a higher preference, subject to vacancy, eligibility, and rules shown on the portal. Upgradation is not guaranteed. If upgraded, follow fresh reporting instructions. If not, your previously accepted seat remains available.
Ensure the certificate details match your application, including name, category, subcategory, and issuing district. Carry the original certificate with seal, signature, and reference number, plus multiple self-attested copies. Mismatches usually convert candidature to the General category. Also bring domicile, income, or disability documents if claimed, and verify validity periods on the portal.
If unallotted today, keep your registration active and monitor the counselling portal for the next schedule. Track vacancy updates, choice editing windows, and any mop-up or spot notices. Review preferences realistically using past cut-off patterns from your category. Keep documents ready, ensure payment instruments work, and avoid last-minute uploads under network pressure.
