Selection and Allotment Process in Supplementary Counselling

Unlike the general round, supplementary counselling does not involve advance online choice filling. It works as follows:

• Eligible candidates report in person at GCT Coimbatore on their designated date and time slot.
• Original certificates are verified on the spot by the counselling authority.
• The list of vacant seats across participating colleges is displayed at the venue.
• Candidates are called in order of TANCET rank (within their category) and asked to choose from the currently available vacant seats.
• Allotment is made on the spot; there is no pre-declared allotment list before the day.
• Candidates accepting a seat are expected to complete admission formalities and, in many cases, report to the allotted college immediately or within a short window specified by the counselling authority.
