Hello aspirant,
The number of students who haven given exam is definitely greater than the seats available in west bengal for admission.
Therefore the rank list is also greater than available seats for admission.
Because every student whose rank is upto 33,000 is not necessary to take admission for that particular course in west Bengal or he/ she also go for different course or different state.
For example a candidate whose rank is suppose 15,000 probably  his/her jee rank is also good and he /she will take admission in IIT or NIt.
For that purpose rank list is till 72,000 and above because the seats won't remain vacant after counseling procedure.
Hope this helps!
