Mumbai: The Maharashtra State CET Cell has implemented new rules to improve transparency in technical admissions for the 2026-27 academic year. These rules apply to remaining seats after Centralised Admission Process (CAP) and institutional quota admissions. Colleges must adhere to the admission information brochure during institution-level admissions.
Observers will be appointed to oversee key stages like document verification, merit list preparation, fee payment, and seat allotment. Under CCTV surveillance, video recordings will be kept for inspection and shared with the competent authority if needed. Admissions will be strictly merit-based, with vacant seats filled based on inter-se merit among eligible applicants.
Colleges must publish admission rules and procedures on their websites and use both direct applications and CET Cell-provided lists to create official merit lists. Daily reports on attendees must be submitted to the CET Cell. Students are warned against agents and misleading information from social media or private links. Colleges found violating rules face legal and administrative consequences.
