Overview
The Karnataka Examinations Authority (KEA) has released the KCET Round 2 Seat Allotment Result 2026 for candidates participating in the state counselling process. Applicants can check their allotment status online using their CET number and complete the prescribed post-allotment formalities. This is an admission process rather than a recruitment drive, so the total number of posts is not applicable; available seats depend on the course-wise and college-wise seat matrix.
