Seat Withdrawal & Fee Refund Rules

Under Rule 15 of the Maharashtra Admission Guidelines, cancelling a confirmed admission before the official cut-off date entitles a candidate to a refund of tuition and institute fees, minus a maximum administrative processing fee of ₹1,000. The final cut-off date for all BBA, BMS, BBM, and Integrated MBA admissions for 2026-27 is 15 September 2026 (5:00 PM); participating institutes must upload final admission details by 6:00 PM the same day.

CAP Rounds Overview — What Comes After Round 1

• MAH BBA CAP 2026 seat allotment will be conducted across 4 rounds in total
• Candidates who don’t get their preferred institute/course in Round 1 remain in contention for subsequent rounds if they choose to float rather than freeze their allotted seat
• Freezing a seat in an earlier round confirms admission and typically exits the candidate from further CAP rounds
• Vacant seats after each round are carried forward into the next round’s seat matrix
• Institutes also conduct an Institute-Level (CAP-vacant seat / spot round) admission process after all CAP rounds conclude, for any seats still remaining

Important Instructions for Candidates

• Only candidates named in the final merit list are eligible to participate in CAP Round 1 seat allotment
• No further grievances or corrections are accepted once the final merit list is published
• Check the seat matrix carefully before filling options — allotment depends on both your merit rank and the choices you submit
• Keep your Application ID, password, and confirmation receipt safe for all subsequent CAP rounds
• Regularly monitor the official portal, bba2026.mahacet.org.in, as CET Cell schedules have seen date extensions during this admission cycle
• Arrange your institute/course preferences in genuine order of priority, since allotment is irreversible once locked and confirmed
