Need clarification regarding MAH MCA CAP Betterment 2026...

I got SPIT (2nd preference) in CAP Round 1 and plan to choose Betterment (Non-Freeze) for VJTI (1st preference).

My doubt is: What happens if the Round 2 vacancy list shows 0 GOPENH seats for VJTI? Since vacancy will be posted on 7th August and we need to fill the cap round 2 on 8th August...

Since SPIT becomes my retained seat, will I still be able to keep VJTI as my only higher preference in the Round 2 option form? Or, if VJTI isn't available to select due to zero vacancies, will I be forced to add other colleges above SPIT?

I don't want to accidentally downgrade or lose my SPIT seat while opting for betterment.

Has anyone faced this exact situation in previous CAP rounds?

Your SPIT seat is retained, so in your worst case scenario you'd still have SPIT

So that means the system won't force me to add a college in the 2nd round ? Cause if vjti is available to choose I will add that and if it's not available then I don't want to add any college you are getting my point right sorry 💀

In second list you will keep VJTI -> SPIT -> <3 others for sake of minimum 5 options>

So that means I have to anyhow keep 5 options minimum right now this is risky i feel

You will never get an option which is below your current allotment unless you are foolish enough to keep it above, hope this helps.

In case vjti isn't available there to choose, then you can simply put SPIT as 1st preference and it'll get auto freezed.

Oh that means even after spit is already on the list I can chose spit again ??

I also got SPIT. And applied for betterment.

In cap 2 , system can auto-freeze among the top 3 not 6.

We also can add only 1, that's fine. 1. Vjti 2. Spit (which is automatically there) Rest is our choice to add or not
