MH CET LLB CAP Seat Allocation 2026 Rules Released: No Auto-Freeze Option for First Preference

MH CET Law 2026 Seat Allotment Process: Freeze Option

Candidates who have been allotted a seat in the MH CET Law 2026 seat allotment based on their first preference shall select the freeze option under the ‘Set Seat Acceptance Status’ tab to accept the seat. The allotted seat will not be frozen automatically, unlike previous years. Candidates who have not been allotted a seat based on their first preference but wish to accept it can also exercise this option.

Candidates must log in to their registered account on the official website, select the freeze option, and pay the seat acceptance fee of Rs 1,000. They must report to the allotted college before the deadline to complete the admission process. This option is best for candidates who have been allotted a seat of their preference and do not wish to participate in the subsequent allotment rounds.

If a candidate selects the freeze option but fails to pay the seat acceptance fee, then the allotted seat will be cancelled. Such candidates can participate in the subsequent MH CET Law 2026 CAP rounds after filling out the choice filling.

MH CET Law 2026 Seat Allotment Process: Betterment

The CET Cell has revised the betterment option rules for CAP Round II for both 3-year and 5-year LLB admissions for the 2026–27 academic year. Candidates who are allotted a seat in the MH CET Law 2026 Round 1 CAP but wish to be considered for a higher preferred college must exercise the betterment option. They will be eligible to participate in the subsequent rounds of the counselling only after filling out fresh web options.

Candidates opting for betterment can change or rearrange their college preference order submitted in MH CET Law 2026 choice filling Round I. However, if a new college is allotted based on the revised preference list, the candidate's claim on the Round I allotted seat will be cancelled. For example, if a candidate was allotted College C in Round I but rearranges their preferences in Round II and is allotted College D, the candidate will receive College D and will no longer have a claim over College C.
