CG PET 2026 Cut Offs

CG PET 2026 Cut Offs

CG PET 2026 cutoffs, released by the Directorate of Technical Education (DTE) Chhattisgarh after each counseling round on cgdte.admissions.nic.in, represent the minimum opening and closing ranks or marks required for seat allocation in BE/B. Tech programs across 41 participating colleges, determined by factors like exam difficulty, candidate numbers (around 15,000-20,000), seat availability (approx. 30,000), and category reservations. These round-wise PDFs, published post-allotment from June-August 2026, guide choice filling by indicating competitiveness—e.g., CSE in top colleges like GEC Raipur demands ranks under 500-1000 for General category, while branches like Mining or Civil extend to 20,000+ ranks. No fixed qualifying cutoff exists pre-counseling; all appeared candidates enter the merit pool, but practical cutoffs emerge via allotments, varying yearly based on performance trends.

Factors Influencing CG PET 2026 Cutoffs

CG PET Cutoffs fluctuate due to higher applicant pools raising competition (e.g., 2025 saw tighter CSE thresholds), easier papers lowering marks needed for top ranks, and seat matrix expansions in newer branches. Category-wise relaxations apply: General cutoffs highest, followed by OBC (5-10% lower ranks), SC (20-30% lenient), ST (30-40% higher ranks accessible), and PH/EWS with additional quotas; home-state domicile prioritizes Chhattisgarh natives. JEE Main integration for 30% seats indirectly impacts CG PET cutoffs in hybrid colleges, while spot rounds fill residuals at inflated ranks.

Previous trends show General category needing 90-100+ marks (out of 150) for premier institutes, dropping to 50-60 for mid-tier privates; 2025 data predicts similar for 2026 absent major shifts.
