JEE Mains College Predictor for JAC Delhi 2026

JAC Delhi is the Joint Admission Counselling process for Delhi-based engineering universities. It uses JEE Main CRL rank for admissions and runs parallel to JoSAA. You can participate in both JoSAA and JAC Delhi simultaneously without conflict. JAC Delhi covers approximately 15,000+ seats across DTU, NSUT, NSUT East, IGDTUW, and GGSIPU-affiliated colleges.

The key distinction in JAC Delhi is the Delhi vs Outside Delhi quota: Delhi candidates (who passed Class 12 from Delhi) get access to the Delhi quota with significantly lower cutoffs. Outside Delhi quota is open to all-India candidates. Both categories use JEE Main rank but have different cutoff ranges.

For candidates choosing between JAC Delhi colleges: DTU (formerly DCE) is the most prestigious with NIRF ~60–70, excellent placements, and strong alumni in Delhi NCR tech firms. DTU CSE average package is ₹14–18 LPA. IIIT Delhi (via JAC Delhi and CSAB) offers more research-intensive CS education with NIRF improving annually. NSUT is a solid choice with strong ECE programs and industry connections.

Recommendation: If your rank allows DTU CSE (Delhi: ~12,000, Outside Delhi: ~15,000), that is generally preferred for overall brand and placement. If you miss DTU CSE, IIIT Delhi via CSAB (~18,000–25,000 Outside Delhi) is an excellent alternative. NSUT is the third option for rank 18,000–25,000 (Outside Delhi).
