• Selection is performed randomly within each category to determine the order of allotment.

Result statuses and their meanings

The provisional list and associated PDF include clear status indicators for each application; candidates should interpret them as follows.

• Selected: Child has been shortlisted; parents must complete admission formalities without delay.
• Waiting list: Admission depends on seat availability and subsequent merit lists.
• Lottery number: Indicates the candidate’s rank in the selection order within their category.

Documents required and next steps

Selected candidates must complete document verification and admission formalities by the deadline; missing the deadline may result in seat cancellation.

• Birth certificate
• Residence proof
• Passport-size photographs
• Service certificate (if applicable)
• Caste certificate (if applicable)
• Income certificate (for RTE applicants)
