TJEE 2026 seat matrix covers total B.Tech seats at Tripura Institute of Technology (TIET), ICFAI University Tripura, and Techno College of Engineering; NIT Agartala home state quota seats (~200) are filled separately through JoSAA 2026 based on JEE Main ranks — not through TJEE.
The Tripura Board of Joint Entrance Examinations (TBJEE) administers TJEE 2026 to fill engineering seats at state-level participating institutes. TJEE 2026 result was declared on May 22, 2026, and 1,745 PCM students are eligible for engineering counselling. NIT Agartala, as a centrally funded institute, does not participate in TJEE counselling directly; however, it offers approximately 200 home state quota seats to Tripura students through JoSAA 2026, which requires a valid JEE Main score. Both seat pools are covered here to help students plan their admissions.
- TJEE 2026 fills seats at TIET (221 seats, based on 2025 data), ICFAI University Tripura (~190 seats), and Techno College of Engineering, Agartala.
- NIT Agartala reserves approximately 200 home state quota seats for Tripura students through JoSAA 2026 (JEE Main required).
- TIET seat matrix is divided into UR, SC, and ST categories across 5 B.Tech branches.
- Round 1 TJEE 2026 seat allotment is expected on July 16, 2026.

Within the NIT Agartala home state quota, seats are further split by category under central government norms: OBC-NCL 27%, SC 15%, ST 7.5%, EWS 10%, General/UR 40.5%. A 5% horizontal PwD reservation applies across all categories. CSE and ECE home state quota seats at NIT Agartala are the most competitive for Tripura students due to lower supply and high demand.
TIET Seat Matrix under TJEE 2026
Tripura Institute of Technology (TIET), Narsingarh is the main government engineering college admitting students through TJEE 2026. TIET offers B.Tech programmes in 5 branches with seats divided across UR (Unreserved), SC, and ST categories as per Tripura state norms. The expected TIET seat matrix for TJEE 2026, based on 2025 data, is given below.

Category-wise Reservation Policy for TJEE 2026
State colleges under TJEE 2026 follow Tripura state reservation norms, while NIT Agartala follows central government reservation norms. Students must submit valid and current caste and category certificates during document verification to secure reserved seats.
| Category | State Colleges (TIET, ICFAI, Techno) — TJEE 2026 | NIT Agartala (Central Norms) — JoSAA 2026 |
|---|---|---|
| General / UR (Open to All) | Unreserved / Open seats | 40.5% |
| Scheduled Tribe (ST) | As per Tripura state ST reservation norms | 7.5% |
| Scheduled Caste (SC) | As per Tripura state SC reservation norms | 15% |
| OBC-NCL | As per Tripura OBC list | 27% |
| EWS (Economically Weaker Section) | As per Tripura state norms | 10% |
| PwD — Horizontal Reservation | 5% across categories | 5% across categories |
Tripura has a large Scheduled Tribe population and state engineering colleges reflect this in their seat allocation. Students belonging to ST and SC categories should note that the Tripura state reservation percentages differ significantly from central government norms used at NIT Agartala. Female supernumerary seats at NIT Agartala add approximately 20% extra seats on top of the regular seat count to promote gender diversity in engineering.
