REAP 2027 Reservation Matrix & Category Rules
Detailed breakdown of vertical category reservations, horizontal sub-quotas, supernumerary provisions, and the official seat cascading procedure notified by the Government of Rajasthan.
Vertical Reservation Distribution (85% State Quota)
| Category | Quota % | Statutory Conditions |
|---|---|---|
| General (Unreserved / Open) | 36% | Open to all merit candidates irrespective of category or state domicile |
| OBC-NCL (Other Backward Classes) | 21% | Non-Creamy Layer certificate valid as on the date of physical reporting |
| SC (Scheduled Castes) | 16% | Permanent caste certificate issued by Rajasthan Tehsildar/SDM |
| ST (Scheduled Tribes) | 12% | Includes 45% reservation for Scheduled Area (TSP) in tribal sub-plan regions |
| GEN-EWS (Economically Weaker) | 10% | Family income < ₹8.00 Lakhs and prescribed land/property holding criteria |
| MBC-NCL (Most Backward Classes) | 5% | Non-Creamy Layer certificate for eligible communities in Rajasthan |
Horizontal & Supernumerary Quotas
25% of seats within each category (GEN, SC, ST, OBC, MBC, EWS) are reserved horizontally for female candidates across all courses.
5% horizontal quota in every category for candidates having not less than 40% certified benchmark disability.
Prioritized from Priority 1 (widows/wards of defense personnel killed in action) down to Priority 9 (wards of serving personnel).
5% seats over and above the sanctioned intake in every branch offering 100% Tuition Fee Waiver for annual income < ₹8.00 Lakhs.
Under CEG allotment norms, if sub-category seats (such as Female, PwD, or Ex-Servicemen) remain vacant at the end of initial evaluation, they automatically merge back into the open category of that specific community (e.g., vacant OBC-Female seats merge into OBC-General). Furthermore, any unfilled Outside Rajasthan (OR 15%) seats from Round 1 are cascaded directly into the Rajasthan State Domicile General open pool for Round 2.
REAP 2027 Centralized Allotment Rounds Architecture
CEG Rajasthan organizes the engineering seat allotment into structured phases. Review each round's target applicant pool, domicile quota, merit hierarchy, and upgradation options.
Round 1: Outside Rajasthan (OR) Candidates Allotment
15% All India QuotaExclusively for candidates belonging to states other than Rajasthan (Outside Rajasthan quota). Allotment is conducted strictly via JEE Main 2027 All India CRL Rank across government and private institutions in Rajasthan. Unfilled OR seats are merged back into Rajasthan State Domicile general quota for Round 2.
Round 2: Rajasthan Domicile Main Allotment (General & Reserved)
85% Rajasthan State QuotaThe primary centralized allotment round for all Rajasthan state domicile candidates. First covers special reservations (Ex-Servicemen, PwD, Kashmiri Migrants, KM, TFWS) followed by vertical category reservations (SC, ST, OBC-NCL, MBC-NCL, EWS) and General open merit seats.
Round 3: First Upward Movement Allotment
Centralized UpgradationCandidates who completed online reporting in Round 1 or Round 2 and submitted the online consent for Upward Movement are automatically processed. The software checks for higher preferences. If an upgrade is allotted, the candidate downloads a revised allotment letter and reports to the upgraded college.
Round 4: Second Upward Movement Allotment
Final Online UpwardThe final centralized upward movement cycle conducted by CEG. Vacancies resulting from candidates opting out, cancelling seats, or moving to IITs/NITs/IIITs via JoSAA/CSAB are redistributed strictly in order of merit to eligible candidates desiring higher choices.
Round 5: Institute-Level Internal Sliding
Intra-College SlidingConducted physically within individual participating colleges for students who have completed reporting and admission. Permits students to slide into a higher-preference branch inside the same college against vacancies generated after upward movement without losing their admitted status.
Round 6: Special Institutional Spot Round (Mop-Up)
Final Mop-Up RoundOrganized against remaining vacant seats after centralized rounds and internal sliding. Both previously registered REAP candidates and fresh candidates who missed the registration window can apply directly at college websites/campuses against vacant institutional seats.
| Counselling Round | Candidate Scope | Primary Merit Basis | Upward Mobility | Fee Requirement |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Round 1 (OR Allotment) | Outside Rajasthan (15% All India Quota) | JEE Main 2027 CRL Rank | Eligible | Provisional Acceptance Fee |
| Round 2 (Rajasthan Main) | Rajasthan Domicile (85% State Quota) | Priority 1 (JEE) > Priority 2 (12th PCM) | Eligible | Provisional Acceptance Fee |
| Upward Movement 1 | Reported R-1 & R-2 Candidates with Upward Option | Original Merit & Locked Choices | Automatic | No extra fee (Transferred) |
| Upward Movement 2 | Reported Candidates Awaiting Higher Preferences | Original Merit & Locked Choices | Automatic | No extra fee (Transferred) |
| Internal Sliding | Admitted candidates in respective college | College Merit List | Branch Change | Fee adjusted within college |
| Spot Round (Mop-Up) | All unallotted / fresh eligible candidates | College Spot Merit (JEE > 12th) | Final Direct | Full College 1st Sem Fee |
The REAP Seat Allotment Algorithm Explained
How does the computer allocate your seat? Learn the deterministic four-step mathematical logic used by CEG Jaipur to process hundreds of thousands of candidate choices.
1. Tier Hierarchy
The allocation engine groups candidates into 3 distinct priorities. Priority 1 candidates (JEE Main CRL) are allocated first until completely exhausted. Priority 2 candidates (12th Board PCM %) are evaluated only thereafter.
2. Top-Down Choice Scan
When your turn arrives in the merit order, the system scans your choices strictly from Choice #1 downward. The very first branch-college choice with an eligible vacant seat matching your quota is locked.
3. Quota & Category Match
The engine checks open unreserved seats first. If an open seat is unavailable, your reserved category quota (OBC-NCL, EWS, SC, ST, MBC, TFWS) is checked. Horizontal sub-quotas (Female 25%, PwD 5%) are integrated simultaneously.
4. Tie-Breaking Resolution
If two candidates share identical merit marks, ties are broken via: (1) Higher Mathematics percentile/marks, (2) Higher Physics percentile/marks, (3) Higher Chemistry marks, and (4) Older candidate age as per 10th marksheet.
Because the engine locks the first available match from the top, any lower choice you place above a better choice will permanently block you from getting the better choice. Never place a "safe" college above your dream college. If your rank qualifies for both Choice #1 and Choice #5, you will ALWAYS be allotted Choice #1!
Upward Movement Rules & Zero-Risk Upgradation
Upward Movement is Rajasthan's unique safeguard for engineering aspirants. Understand how you can safely target higher-preference colleges without jeopardizing your confirmed seat.
Scenario A: You Are Upgraded
Higher-Preference Seat Found- The engine assigns you a higher-ranked choice from your original choice list (e.g., from Choice #7 to Choice #3).
- Your previous seat (Choice #7) is instantly and automatically cancelled and released to other merit candidates.
- You download a revised Provisional Allotment Order and report to the new institute.
- Your provisional fee deposited at the initial college is officially transferred to the new college as per CEG regulations.
Scenario B: You Are NOT Upgraded
No Higher Vacancy Available- No eligible vacancy opened in choices #1 through #6 above your current allotment.
- Your original allotted seat (Choice #7) remains 100% intact and confirmed.
- You CANNOT lose your existing seat because you applied for upward movement.
- You continue your studies in the currently reported college without any disruption or penalty.
To be eligible for Upward Movement, you MUST complete online reporting at the allotted institute in Round 1 or Round 2, verify your original documents, and pay the provisional acceptance fee. If you skip online reporting, your allotment is cancelled immediately, and you are disqualified from Upward Movement.
