State of Eligibility (NOT domicile)
State of Eligibility = where you first appeared for Class XII.
45 secFreeze vs Float vs Slide
Understand #1 preference freeze and upgraded-seat rejection risk.
45 secFee deadlines and PAF traps
Missing seat acceptance fee or PAF can cancel the seat.
30 secThe #1 Mistake students make
Wrong State of Eligibility silently breaks Home State logic in NIT+.
Golden Rule
State of Eligibility = where you first appeared for Class XII.
Example: Class XII in Delhi + residence in Noida => State code is Delhi.
Wrong input
Choosing the wrong state code can fail document checks later.
Correct input
Lock correct state first, then optimize list and willingness decisions.
