CCMT 2026 Round 3 seat allotment is available at ccmt.admissions.nic.in — students who receive an offer must log in, choose their response (Freeze, Float or Slide) and pay the seat acceptance fee online to secure their seat at an NIT or GFTI.
Centralized Counselling for M.Tech./M.Arch./M.Plan. (CCMT) 2026 Round 3 is a decisive stage for GATE-qualified students seeking postgraduate engineering seats at NITs, IIITs and other Government Funded Technical Institutes. Once the allotment is published, you have a limited window to accept your offer and complete fee payment — missing the deadline causes automatic cancellation of your allotment with no recourse.
- Round 3 seat allotment result is declared on 2 July 2026 at ccmt.admissions.nic.in.
- Login with your GATE Registration Number and Date of Birth to view your allotted seat.
- Choose one of four responses: Freeze, Float, Slide or Withdraw within the stipulated deadline.
- Pay the seat acceptance fee online to confirm your allotment — non-payment forfeits the offer.
- Students who choose Float or Slide will be considered for seat upgrades in subsequent rounds if seats remain vacant.
- Report to the allotted NIT or GFTI with original documents on the date specified by the institute.

Seat Response Options: Freeze, Float, Slide and Withdraw
After viewing your Round 3 allotment you must submit a response within the deadline. Not responding within the deadline is treated as rejection and your seat is cancelled automatically. The four available choices are explained below:
| Response Option | What It Means | Upgrade in Future Rounds? |
|---|---|---|
| Freeze | Accept the allotted seat and opt out of all future upgrades | No |
| Float | Accept the seat and be considered for upgrades across any higher-preference choice in future rounds | Yes — any higher choice |
| Slide | Accept the seat and be considered for upgrades within the same allotted institute only | Yes — same institute only |
| Withdraw | Reject the allotted seat and exit CCMT 2026 counselling entirely | No — exits counselling permanently |
Students who choose Freeze, Float or Slide must complete fee payment to lock their allotment. Choosing Withdraw requires no fee payment but permanently ends your participation in all remaining CCMT 2026 rounds.
