DCECE 2026 Seat Allotment and Reporting
After the choice-filling process concludes, BCECEB will publish the seat allotment result on the official portal. Candidates allotted seats must report to the designated verification/reporting centre with all required original documents.
Those who do not secure a seat in the first round can participate in subsequent rounds. Candidates who remain unallotted after the main counselling rounds may apply for the mop-up round, which is conducted to fill remaining vacant seats.
It is advisable for candidates to regularly check the official website for updates regarding seat allotment results, reporting dates, and further counselling instructions.
Choice filling decides the institute and branch a candidate receives. Locking strong preferences early protects the rank advantage. Many DCECE seats fill in the first round of allotment itself.
Action Plan for Candidates
- Visit bceceboard.bihar.gov.in and read both official notices.
- Keep your DCECE registration number and password ready.
- Shortlist polytechnic institutes and branches by your rank.
- Log in on June 23 2026 and start choice filling.
- Lock your final list before the choice filling deadline.
- Save the choice slip and prepare your documents for reporting.
Watch the BCECEB portal for the choice filling end date and the first round seat allotment result. Counselling notices for PM and PMM streams may follow soon.
