All state quote or other state quote is same in JEE main Jossa counseling

Home State (or HS) Quota- Under the home state quota, the seats are reserved for candidates based on their state of eligibility which is basically the state where they have completed their Class 11th and 12th from. Remember, your home state quota is filled as per as your All India Rank. Almost 50% seats are reserved for HS quota students.



Other State (or OS) Quota- Under the Other State Quota, the seats are reserved for candidates of beyond the Home State. Here also, around 50% seats are reserved for OS quota students.



To make the above concept clearer, here is an example:



Rahul stays in Kerala and acquires a certain rank in JEE Main. Since, Rahul has a domicile of Kerala, he can apply to a Kerala college through the home state quota.



Now, in case, he got a rank around 1000 and NIT Calicut, in the 1st round, is offering a computer science seat at an All India rank of 900. Since Rahul has a home state quota, same seat would be offered to him at a rank of 1000 or even at 2000 also. Thus, Rahul is left with two options- First, to apply through the All India route or second, to apply via home state quota route. Here the choice completely depends on Rahul.



State of Eligibility: It is the state from where the candidate has passed the qualifying examination.
