JoSAA 2026 Physical Reporting: Key Details

Who Needs to Report Physically?

The physical reporting requirement applies to NIT+ candidates who have a provisionally allotted seat, have paid the required PAF and are not participating in CSAB 2026 Special Rounds and/or DASA 2026 (UG).

Candidates should check the individual reporting instructions of their allotted institute because physical reporting requirements can vary by institute. JoSAA has also stated that physical reporting schedules for participating institutes are available through the respective institute profiles.

JoSAA 2026 Reporting Deadline

The last date for this physical reporting window is August 18, 2026. Candidates should complete reporting within the prescribed period and carry the documents requested by their allotted institute.

The JoSAA website provides institute-wise reporting information and related resources, including reporting and verification centre details for the NIT+ system.

What Candidates Should Do Before Reporting

Candidates should:

1. Check the physical reporting instructions of the allotted institute.
2. Confirm that the PAF requirement has been completed.
3. Keep admission and identity documents ready.
4. Check whether additional institute-specific forms or fees are required.
5. Complete physical reporting before August 18, 2026.

Candidates who are participating in CSAB Special Rounds or DASA UG should follow the applicable admission process instead of the JoSAA physical-reporting route described above.
