Have a question related to IISER Mohali ?

I have attended iiser exam but i don't know how to put it into online councilling can you please help me i got 10455 rank but i didn't get category rank

Since you’ve cleared the IISER Aptitude Test, you now need to register online for the counselling at the official portal (iiseradmission.in). Fill out the preference form with your IISER choices, verify documents if shortlisted, and pay the seat acceptance fee. Keep checking the site for counselling dates and steps.

In iiser 2025 results a sc category student score 8000 rank seat getting possibility avaible or not?

If you see last year data the closing rank for SC at the least competitive IISER Berhampur in 2024 was 965. It shows that even for newer and less competitive IISERs, the closing ranks for the SC category were far below 8000. So unfortunately possibility is very low.

Good luck..

I have uploaded my tn obc-ncl certificate which is centralized has qr code but not in the format does my obc-ncl reservation will be canceled All the informations are perfect expect the format is not per centralIts in my state format It is a digitally signed one and also has a qr code to verify it Actually mine is centralized obc-ncl only the format alone is slightly different My caste is under central obc list and contains main points regarding obc It's upto valid issued after April 1st I asked iiser help desk they replied Dear Candidate, If you have uploaded the valid document on the Application Portal before the deadline, it should be fine. Best Regards, JAC 2025 Office

Hello,

If your OBC-NCL certificate is valid, issued after April 1st, digitally signed, has a QR code, and mentions all the required details, then there should not be any problem.

Even if the format is slightly different, the main thing is that it proves your OBC-NCL status under the central list. Also, since the IISER help desk has confirmed that uploading a valid document before the deadline is fine, your reservation is not likely to be cancelled.

Hope it helps !
