Hello, sir, I had a doubt. The KEA website has released two second-round provisional results for medical and dental, one on the 10th and the other on the 20th. I’ve gotten a seat on the list released on the 10th. But l, I didn’t get a seat allotted in the list released on the 20th. And when I go to the portal, it’s showing “You are Stopped from the CET Admission Process” I did pay the caution deposit of 1,00,000 on time. What to do?

Ans: Hi,
Your concern is about the refund of the caution deposit, not about being stopped from the CET admission process.

If you have been stopped from the KEA (Karnataka Examinations Authority) CET admission process and need to get your deposited caution deposit refunded, you will likely receive it back after a deduction for a processing fee, provided that the cancellation occurs before the mop-up round and not after a final forfeiture. To claim the refund, you will need to follow specific procedures, which include providing your bank account details to the KEA and submitting required documents, such as your admission order, challan, and verification slip. The refund is typically processed to the same account from which the deposit was made and can take up to 15 working days.
Procedure:

Reasons for Being Stopped:
There are various reasons, such as cancellation of a seat, failure to join an allotted institution, or other procedural issues. The status of your deposit will depend on the specific reason for being stopped, which you haven't mentioned.

Check the Specific Refund and Forfeiture Rules:
- Before the Mop-Up Round: If you cancel before the last date for mop-up option entry, a processing fee will be deducted, and the remainder of your deposit will be refunded.
- After the Mop-Up Round or After Seat Allotment Cancellation: If you cancel after the mop-up round or if your admission is canceled, the entire deposit may be forfeited.

Based on the above information, you can initiate the refund process.

To Initiate the Refund Process:
Provide Bank Details: To receive the refund, you must furnish your bank account details to KEA as per their instructions and deadlines.

Submit Required Documents: You will need to provide documents such as your admission order, challan, and verification slip to process the cancellation and refund.
