Closing rank is the CENTAC merit (Class 12) rank of the last candidate who got a seat in that category in that CENTAC round. Your rank has to be the same as or smaller than the closing rank to have a chance. Each round lists only the seats allotted in that round, so later rounds can show fewer programmes.
CENTAC ranks residents of the U.T. of Puducherry on Class 12 marks (the average of Mathematics, Physics and one optional subject), with no entrance test, so these are CENTAC merit ranks and not JEE ranks. Lists show who was allotted or admitted in each round. Karaikal, Mahe and Yanam seats are regional seats of the government colleges. On self-supporting seats, shown under JEE Main, the rank is the JEE (Main) All India rank.
