GFTI ECE Cutoff 2026 – Expected Closing Rank Range
A branch-hierarchy-based estimate of where GFTI Electronics & Communication Engineering cutoffs typically sit, using real GFTI CSE and overall JoSAA 2026 data as reference points.
Data Note — No Exact ECE-Specific Figures Available
We do not have branch-isolated ECE closing rank data for GFTIs in our current dataset. The estimate below is a qualitative positioning based on typical branch demand hierarchy (CSE > ECE > other branches), using verified GFTI CSE and overall closing rank figures from JoSAA 2026 as anchor points. For exact ECE cutoffs at a specific GFTI, always check the official JoSAA closing rank report.
GFTI Closing Rank Reference Points (Verified Data)
| Branch Category | Round 1 | Round 4 | Position |
|---|---|---|---|
| GFTI CSE (best) | 13,499 | 14,116 | Most competitive |
| GFTI ECE (estimated) | ~18,000–28,000* | ~20,000–30,000* | Qualitative estimate |
| GFTI CSE (average) | 21,622 | 24,437 | Anchor point |
| GFTI Overall (average, all branches) | 36,503 | 41,986 | Anchor point |

Why ECE Typically Sits Between CSE and Overall Average
Across almost all JoSAA-participating institutes — IITs, NITs, IIITs, and GFTIs — Electronics & Communication Engineering (ECE) is consistently the second most sought-after branch after Computer Science. This means its closing ranks are typically tighter (more competitive / lower numerically) than the institute's overall average across all branches, but not as tight as CSE.
Applying this pattern to GFTIs: since GFTI CSE closing ranks ranged from ~13,499 to ~24,437 (best to average) and the overall GFTI average ranged from ~36,503 to ~41,986 across JoSAA 2026 rounds, ECE cutoffs would reasonably be expected to fall somewhere in between these two bands — closer to the CSE end at top GFTIs like PEC Chandigarh, and closer to the overall average at less sought-after GFTIs.
