On the other hand, some seats allotted to other candidates may remain vacant due to non-reporting or the reasons of in-eligibility, etc. Provided the seat(s) have become vacant, these reporting candidates may request for sliding to a better choice in the subsequent round of allotment. However, the candidate will be considered for sliding ONLY to one of the better choices that were given by him/her at the time of online choice filling. Such candidates should request the University officials to online mark them for “Upgradation”. However, it will be MANDATORY for the candidate to first take admission on the allotted seat. If the candidate could not request for “Upgradation” at the University at the time of reporting, and wants to do so, then he/she will be able to do it, after admission, as per his/her convenience at home, using his/her login credentials. Such candidates will be required to print their “Upgradation” letter, sign it, scan and upload on the counseling portal. University officials will download the same through the University Login and attach that along with the other documents submitted by the candidate earlier. Vice versa, if the candidate had opted for “Upgradation” while reporting at the University but does not want to continue with it, then he/she will be able to do so through his/her individual login as per his/her convenience at home. The status of all the candidates who had opted for “Upgradation”, will be available through University Login with complete chain of developments (In/Out). In the subsequent round of allotment, such candidates will be tried first for their better choices on the seats which had become vacant due to non-reporting, ineligibility, etc. If the candidate does not get a better choice, then his/her initially allotted seat will be retained by him/her. If the candidate gets a better choice, then his/her initially allotted seat will stand forfeited and the candidate will have to accept the “Upgraded” seat. In no case, such “Upgraded” candidate will be allowed to retain the initially allotted seat. Therefore, the candidate must be very careful in exercising the request for “Upgradation”. The “Upgraded” candidates are exempted from reporting at the “Upgraded” University. Since the eligibility and documents have already been verified by a Competent University, therefore, the candidates have been given this relaxation. After upgradation, the candidate should contact the concerned university and verify the date of registration and additional eligibility requirements/criteria, if any, for the allotted course, well in advance, before finally reporting for admission. However, if the “Upgraded” University/ Course has some additional requirements of eligibility then the onus shall lie on the candidate to fulfill such eligibility criteria/requirements. At the time of beginning of Classes at the university, documents of all such candidates will be checked and in the event of lapses being found, the university may deny admission to such candidates. In reporting module of the University login, all such candidates will be marked as “Admitted” by default by the system. The University will not be able to change their status as Not Admitted: Absent/Not turned up. If a candidate is “Upgraded” during the second allotment and he/she still has scope of getting a Page 9 of 24

10. better choice, then he/she can again request for “Upgradation”. Since the candidate is exempted from reporting at the “Upgraded” University so he/she will again be permitted to do so with his/her own login as per his/her convenience at home. However, if the “Upgraded” candidate wishes to report at the “Upgraded” University, then he/she can do so. Since there will be only three rounds of counseling, request for “Upgradation” will be permissible only during the first and second rounds. Subsequent round of allotments (2nd and 3rd) will be conducted for candidates who did not get any seat in the earlier rounds. However, their choices will remain the same as filled in the beginning. Procedure/Major steps involved in Online Counselling and Upgradation for ICAR’s AIEEA-2019 have been outlined at Annexure-III. 4.0 FILLING OF VACANT SEATS AFTER THE COUNSELING The ICAR quota seats after the final round of online counseling, if remain vacant, shall automatically stand released to the Agricultural University concerned for filling up at their level and as per the procedure in vogue at the respective university. These seats will no more be called as ICAR seats and treated as university seats. Once the counseling/admission process is over, filling up of any subsequent vacancies created due to any reasons, shall not be the responsibility of ICAR. No correspondence in this regard will be entertained either from the universities or from any candidate. 5.0 CONDITIONS FOR THE AWARD OF NATIONAL TALENT SCHOLARSHIPS The candidates may please note that the NTS will be awarded only after the completion of online counseling. National Talent Scholarship (NTS) would be available through the Agricultural University concerned, to all the students admitted on ICAR quota seats at any Agricultural University in a state outside his/her domicile state. Detailed terms & conditions for the fellowship and admission may be seen at the ICAR website http://www.icar.org.in/files/FINALGuidelines(GNTS)-26072016.pdf. 6.0 LEGAL JURISDICTION All disputes pertaining to the conduct of Online Counseling for admission to Bachelors degree programmes shall fall within the jurisdiction of Delhi Courts only.

21. ANNEXURE-III PROCEDURE/MAJOR STEPS IN ONLINE COUNSELLING & UPGRADATION FOR ICAR’S AIEEA-2019 Entrance Examination for UG/PG/Ph.D. admission [conducted by National Testing Agency (NTA)] Preparation of merit-based ranks by ICAR Viewing/downloading of the result using Application No./Roll No, DOB, Mobile No. Downloading of Counseling letter by the candidates qualified for online counseling [The AIEEA (PG) and AICE-JRF/SRF(PGS) candidates who had not updated the details of their qualifying examination marks on the NTA website within the stipulated period and whose status of qualifying examination is still ‘Appearing’ are not eligible to participate in the counseling)]. ONLINE CHOICE FILLING (AS PER DECLARED SCHEDULE) Candidates found eligible for counseling will be sent Username and Password through email and/or SMS on the registered email ID/Mobile No. Candidate should visit the website https://icar.org.in or www.icarexam.net and login using the Username and Password. Payment of one-time NON-REFUNDABLE Registration fee (Rs 400/-) through Online payment gateway. Selection of preferred Course and the University (from drop down menu) one by one with preference change facility. (Candidates must ensure that all the eligibility conditions, as specified in the AIEEA (UG)-2019 Information Bulletin available on NTA website (www.ntaicar.nic.in or www.nta.ac.in are fulfilled in toto including the minimum age limit, percentage of marks obtained in the 10+2 examination, relevant certificates, etc. and final result in hand) Choice filling will be permitted only once. For subsequent round(s) of counselling, allotment will be done on the basis of same choices (If the candidate has not been allotted any seat till then.) Only the course will be displayed. Page 21 of 24

22. Only those accredited Universities will be displayed where the desired courses run. However, candidate should cross-check the same from the concerned University. Candidate should fill maximum number of choices but give utmost importance to the preference/order/serial number of his/her choices as this will be an important criterion for seat allotment. Candidates MUST “lock” their choices on/before the last day of choice filling. If candidates do NOT lock their choices, last saved choices will be locked automatically upon reaching the deadline for choice filling. Candidates will NOT be allowed to edit their choice list after the deadline for choice filling, i.e. candidates CANNOT change the order of their choices OR add any more course in OR delete any course from their choice list after the deadline for choice filling. SEAT ALLOTMENT AND UPGRADATION On the date of allotment, candidate's choices, his/her merit, score, qualification, domicile, category, sub- category, last University in which studied and seat matrix will be processed together and seat will be allotted following the reservation rules of GoI. Candidate will be allotted one of his/her desired accredited University/Course. Allocation of an accredited college within the University allotted shall be done by the University itself. It does not come under the scope of this counselling. Candidate should download his/her provisional allotment letter mentioning the Course/University allotted and the date on which he/she has to report at the allotted University along with all listed documents. Candidate will also be sent this intimation through SMS and email All the candidates who have been allotted a seat for the first time in any round of allotment will be mandatorily required to report at the allotted University within the prescribed date and time failing which their allotment will be cancelled. Upon reporting at the allotted University, the candidate has to produce all the relevant original documents to the University officials for verification. University may refuse admission if the listed documents are not found in order or the candidate is found ineligible for admission. The candidate shall pay the prescribed fee to the University and the University official will generate the Provisional Admission letter of the candidate. Some candidates will be allotted their 2nd/3rd/4th or even higher choice. On the other hand, some seats allotted to other candidates may remain vacant due to non-reporting or the reasons of in-eligibility, etc. Provided the seat(s) have become vacant, these reporting candidates may request for sliding to a better choice in the subsequent round of allotment. It may be clearly noted that the candidate will be considered for sliding ONLY to one of the better choices that were given by him/her at the time of online choice filling. Such candidates should request the University officials to online mark them for “Upgradation”. However, it will be MANDATORY for the candidate to first take admission on the allotted seat. Contd.... Page 22 of 24

23. Contd…. If the candidate could not request for “Upgradation” at the University at the time of reporting, and wants to do so, then he/she will be able to do it, after admission, as per his/her convenience at home, using his/her login credentials. Such candidates will be required to print their “Upgradation” letter, sign it, scan and upload on the counseling portal. University officials will download the same through the University Login and attach that along with the other documents submitted by the candidate earlier. Vice versa, if the candidate had opted for “Upgradation” while reporting at the University but does not want to continue with it, then he/she will be able to do so through his/her individual login as per his/her convenience at home. The status of all the candidates who had opted for “Upgradation”, will be available through University Login with complete chain of developments (In/Out). In the subsequent round of allotment, such candidates will be tried first for their better choices on the seats which had become vacant due to not reporting, ineligibility, etc. If the candidate does not get a better choice, then his/her initially allotted seat will be retained by him/her. If the candidate gets a better choice, then his/her initially allotted seat will stand CANCELLED and the candidate will have to accept the “Upgraded” seat. In NO case, such “UPGRADED” candidate will be allowed to retain the initially allotted seat. Therefore, the candidate must be very careful in exercising the request for “Upgradation”. The “Upgraded” candidates are EXEMPTED from reporting at the “Upgraded” University. Since the eligibility and documents have already been verified by a Competent University, therefore, the candidates have been given this relaxation. After upgradation, the candidate should contact the concerned university and verify the date of registration and additional eligibility requirements/criteria, if any, for the allotted course, well in advance, before finally reporting for admission. However, if the “Upgraded” University/ Course has some additional requirements of eligibility then the onus shall lie on the candidate to fulfill such eligibility criteria/requirements. At the time of beginning of Classes at the university, documents of all such candidates will be checked and in the event of lapses being found, the university may deny admission to such candidates. In reporting module of the University login, all such candidates will be marked as “ADMITTED” by default by the system. The University will not be able to change their status as Not Admitted: Absent/Not turned up. If a candidate is “Upgraded” during the second allotment and he/she still has scope of getting a better choice, then he/she can again request for “Upgradation”. Since the candidate is exempted from reporting at the “Upgraded” University so he/she will again be permitted to do so with his/her own login as per his/her convenience at home. However, if the “Upgraded” candidate wishes to report at the “Upgraded” University, then he/she can do so. Since there will be only three rounds of counseling, request for “Upgradation” will be permissible only during the first and second rounds. Page 23 of 24

24. University will report Online about the admission status of each and every individual candidate. NONE of the candidate should remain un-reported. ICAR shall not be responsible for any wrong reporting by the University as this forms the basis of further activities. So the University officials MUST doubly verify their reporting as the seats reported vacant will form the seat matrix for subsequent rounds. Subsequent round of allotments (2nd and 3rd) will be conducted for candidates who did not get any seat in the earlier rounds. However, their choices will remain the same as filled in the beginning.
