WB JECA 2026 Round 1 Fee Payment and Reporting Close Today at wbjeeb.nic.in; Check Steps to Confirm Seat

The West Bengal Joint Entrance Examinations Board (WBJEEB) has issued a Round 1 deadline alert. Today is the last day for seat acceptance fee payment. It is also the last day for physical reporting to allotted institutes. The process is for West Bengal Joint Entrance for Computer Application (WB JECA) 2026 counselling. All actions must be completed at wbjeeb.nic.in.

The Round 1 provisional seat allotment result was published on September 26, 2026. Allotted candidates now have two mandatory tasks. First, they must pay the acceptance fee online. Second, they must report at the allotted institute.

The seat acceptance fee is Rs 2000 and is non-refundable. Payment modes include net banking, debit card, credit card, and UPI. Physical reporting requires original documents at the allotted institute.

WB JECA is a single-window MCA admission process for West Bengal. Seat allotment follows JECA rank, choice preference, and category rules. Candidates who miss the deadline will forfeit the allotted seat. The vacated seat will then move to the Round 2 pool.

What Is the Difference Between Freeze and Upgrade?

Candidates must choose one of the two options after fee payment. The choice decides participation in Round 2 counselling.
