Cut-Off Marks & Merit List

The HPCET 2026 seat allotment is based on a candidate's rank in the entrance examination, category (SC/ST/OBC/EWS/General), the preferences locked during choice filling, and seat availability at the time of allotment. There is no separate cut-off mark published for the allotment process; instead, the merit list is prepared based on HPCET 2026 scores (and JEE Main scores for 50% of B.Tech seats). Candidates can check their position in the merit list and corresponding allotment by logging into the counselling portal. The official counselling brochure on himtu.ac.in contains detailed category-wise seat matrix and merit preparation criteria. For exact cut-off trends or previous year data, candidates should refer to the official notification or contact the university helpdesk.
