Karnataka PGCET 2025 Counselling Round 2: Candidates Must Complete Fee Payment

Today, October 29, 2025, is the final deadline for candidates allotted seats in the Karnataka PGCET 2025 Round 2 Counselling for admission to M.Tech./MBA/MCA courses. Aspirants must complete the crucial steps of fee payment and downloading the Admission Order/Confirmation Slip on the official KEA website. Failure to complete this process by the end of today will lead to the cancellation of the allotted seat. This is your last opportunity before the mandatory college reporting, which has a separate, immediate deadline. Act now to finalise your postgraduate admission.

The pursuit of a Master's degree in Engineering (M.Tech.), Business Administration (MBA), or Computer Applications (MCA) in Karnataka is reaching a crucial final stage. For all candidates who have been successfully allotted a seat in the Karnataka PGCET 2025 Round 2 Counselling, today, October 29, 2025, marks the strict final deadline to complete the essential post-allotment formalities. The Karnataka Examinations Authority (KEA) has made it abundantly clear that this cutoff is non-negotiable, and failing to adhere to it will result in the immediate cancellation of the coveted seat. Aspirants must log in to the official KEA portal without delay to complete the required fee payment and download the indispensable Admission Order/Confirmation Slip. This process is the legal conclusion of the allotment round and the prerequisite for physically reporting to the respective college. The clock is ticking—finalise your admission today.

​Immediate Action Required: Fee Payment and Confirmation Slip

​This is the most critical step for all students who exercised either Choice 1 (Accept and Report) or Choice 2 (Accept and Upgrade/Float) following the Round 2 seat allotment. Non-compliance by the end of today will terminate your admission process.

• ​Final Deadline Confirmation:
  • ​Date: Today, October 29, 2025 is the absolute last date for payment of the admission fee.
  • ​Mandatory Step: Candidates must pay the prescribed university fee (which varies based on course and category) exclusively through the online link provided on the official KEA website.
  • ​Consequence of Delay: Any fee payment initiated or completed after the today's deadline, regardless of the reason, will not be accepted, and the allotted seat will be deemed vacant for subsequent rounds.
• ​Downloading the Admission Order/Confirmation Slip: 
  • ​After successfully paying the fee, the KEA system will generate the Admission Order (also known as the Confirmation Slip).
  • ​This document is indispensable as it is the official letter confirming your seat allotment and fee payment.
  • ​Procedure: Aspirants must log in to the KEA official portal using their PGCET Number and other credentials, locate the link for "Download Allotment Order/Fee Payment," and print multiple copies of this slip.
• ​The Role of the Confirmation Slip:
  • ​It is the primary document to be presented at the time of physical reporting to the allotted college.
  • ​It serves as a receipt and proof that the candidate has officially accepted the seat and paid the required tuition fee component to KEA.

​ Post-Deadline Steps: Reporting to the Allotted College 

​While today is the fee payment deadline, the next immediate and equally important step is the physical reporting to the college, which has a final deadline of its own.

• ​Reporting Deadline: 
  • ​Candidates who have completed the fee payment and downloaded the Admission Order must physically report to their allotted college by October 30, 2025 (Tomorrow), as per the counselling schedule.
  • ​This deadline is strictly for candidates who opted for Choice 1 (Accept and Report). Those who opted for Choice 2 (Accept and Float) do not need to report physically at this stage.
• ​Mandatory Documents for Verification:
  • ​Candidates must carry a comprehensive list of documents to the college for verification. Failure to produce originals will jeopardise the final admission.
  • ​Key Documents: 
    • ​Final Admission Order/Confirmation Slip (Downloaded today, October 29th).
    • ​Original and attested photocopies of the Karnataka PGCET 2025 Admit Card and Scorecard.
    • ​Original and photocopies of Degree/Qualifying Exam Mark Sheets and Provisional/Degree Certificate.
    • ​Class 10th and 12th Mark Sheets (for proof of date of birth and basic qualification).
    • ​Relevant Category/Caste/Income Certificates (if admission is under a reserved quota).
• ​Final Admission Process: 
  • ​The college will verify all original documents against the copies submitted during the document verification stage.
  • ​Upon successful verification, the college will issue the final admission letter, officially enrolling the student into the M.Tech./MBA/MCA program.

​ What if I Missed the Fee Payment or Hope for Another Round

​A missed deadline today has significant implications, but candidates who chose to float (Choice 2) must remain vigilant for future possibilities.

• ​Consequences of Missing Today's Deadline:
  • ​The allotted seat is automatically cancelled, and the candidate will lose all claim to it.
  • ​Such a candidate will not be eligible to participate in any subsequent rounds (Special/Mop-up) of the Karnataka PGCET 2025 counselling process for the current academic year.
  • ​All efforts up to this point—the PGCET exam, document verification, and option entry—will be negated.
• ​For Choice 2 (Accept and Float) Candidates:
  • ​Since they have paid the fee by today's deadline and secured their Round 2 seat, they will be considered for seat upgrade if a higher-preferred option becomes available in any subsequent special or mop-up rounds.
  • ​They must not report to the Round 2 allotted college yet, and must wait for the notification for the next round's allotment result.
• ​Future Round Possibility:
  • ​While Round 2 is one of the final major allotments, the KEA reserves the right to conduct a Special Round or Mop-Up Round if a significant number of seats remain vacant after the Choice 1 candidates report tomorrow, October 30, 2025.
  • ​Aspirants hoping for an upgrade (Choice 2) or a seat in a special round must closely monitor the KEA official website for any further announcements.

​Conclusion

​Today is the moment of truth for all Karnataka PGCET 2025 Round 2 aspirants. Completing the fee payment and downloading the official Confirmation Slip by the end of October 29, 2025, is the definitive action required to convert a provisional seat allotment into a confirmed admission. Do not underestimate the need for urgency. Login to the KEA portal, secure your admission through timely payment, and prepare your documents for the mandatory physical reporting to your college by October 30, 2025. Your postgraduate engineering or management career hinges on the actions you take in the next few hours.
