WBJEEB has postponed decentralised counselling 2026 registration due to revised eligibility criteria. Candidates should await new dates, eligibility details and the updated counselling brochure.
The WBJEE 2026 decentralised counselling dates have been postponed by the West Bengal Joint Entrance Examinations Board (WBJEEB). Candidates who were waiting for WBJEE decentralised counselling 2026 registration from September 2 will now have to wait for the revised schedule. WBJEEB will announce the new WBJEE 2026 counselling dates soon on its official website.
The postponement has been announced after changes were made to the eligibility criteria for WBJEE decentralised counselling 2026. The revised counselling brochure and schedule will be published after incorporating the necessary modifications. Candidates are advised to check the official WBJEEB website regularly for the latest WBJEE counselling 2026 updates.
Why WBJEE Decentralised Counselling 2026 Was Postponed?
The main reason behind postponing WBJEE decentralised counselling 2026 is the revision of eligibility conditions. WBJEEB has decided to modify the eligibility rules before starting the online counselling process.
The revised process will allow eligible candidates from different admission routes to participate. Candidates with valid WBJEE 2026, JEE Main 2026 and eligible Class 12 qualifications will be considered under the revised framework. The detailed eligibility conditions will be mentioned in the revised counselling brochure.
WBJEE 2026 Decentralised Counselling Eligibility
According to the latest update, candidates with a valid WBJEE rank, JEE Main rank or eligible Class 12 marks will be allowed to participate, subject to the detailed rules released by WBJEEB.
Candidates who have already secured admission to an institute can also participate in WBJEE 2026 decentralised counselling. This change is important for candidates who want to explore vacant seats or other available admission opportunities after the completion of the regular counselling process.
The final WBJEE decentralised counselling eligibility 2026 will be confirmed through the revised brochure. Therefore, candidates should check the official eligibility conditions before registering.
WBJEE Decentralised Counselling 2026: Choice Filling
The WBJEE 2026 decentralised counselling choice filling process will be conducted online. Fresh registration and choice filling will be allowed for each counselling round.
However, candidates will not be able to arrange or reorder their choices according to preference. This is an important point that candidates should remember while preparing for WBJEE counselling 2026.
Two phases of WBJEE decentralised counselling 2026 are expected under the revised process. Additional counselling rounds may be conducted if vacant seats remain after the scheduled phases.
WBJEE 2026 Decentralised Counselling for Vacant Seats
The primary purpose of WBJEE decentralised counselling 2026 is to fill vacant seats available at participating institutes after the regular counselling process.
Candidates who could not secure seats during the main WBJEE counselling 2026 process can use decentralised counselling to seek admission against available vacancies. Since the dates and eligibility rules have now been revised, candidates should keep their academic and rank documents ready.
The official WBJEEB website currently lists the revised decentralised counselling notification and related corrigendum under its 2026 current events section.
