MAH MBA CET 2026 Stray Vacancy Process Explained

The Stray Vacancy round is the final phase of MBA seat allotment conducted by CET Cell Maharashtra. It fills seats that became vacant after CAP Round 3 due to non-reporting, seat refusal, or cancellation. This is the last structured opportunity for students to secure admission through CET Cell before institutes manage remaining vacancies independently.

Who can participate in the Stray Vacancy round:

• Students who did not receive an allotment in any of the three CAP rounds
• Students allotted in earlier rounds who did not report to the institute, subject to CET Cell eligibility norms
• Any other eligible student as specified in the official Stray Vacancy notification from CET Cell

How the Stray Vacancy round works:

After the Stray Vacancy reporting window closes, CET Cell does not conduct any further allotment rounds. Institutes may fill remaining seats directly under their respective university or government norms. Students should monitor cetcell.mahacet.org regularly for official announcements on the Stray Vacancy schedule and seat list.
