Overview
The IISER 2026 Round 5 Seat Allotment Result will be issued by the IISER Joint Admissions Committee for candidates seeking admission to undergraduate programmes at the Indian Institutes of Science Education and Research. This is an admission process rather than a recruitment drive, so no posts are involved; the programme-wise seat intake will be governed by the official 2026 admission brochure and allotment schedule.
Candidates participating in counselling should check their allotment status through the official admission portal and complete the required acceptance formalities within the specified deadline. Failure to pay the applicable fee or submit documents on time may lead to cancellation of the allotted seat.

Selection Process
- Entrance Examination: Candidates must appear for the applicable IISER admission test and obtain a valid rank or score.

Round 5 allotment may include seats that remain available after earlier rounds. An upgrade or fresh allotment will depend on the candidate’s counselling status and the options exercised in preceding rounds.
