Top institutes like IIT Bombay, IIT Delhi and IIT Kharagpur have their closing ranks almost static over the various rounds. However, medium-tier institutions experienced fluctuations, such as IIT Bhilai, IIT Palakkad, and IIT Dharwad between Round 4 and Round 5. It explains the larger seat admission was happening during the later rounds. Check the complete round-wise analysis and rank movement for IITs shared below.

JEE Advanced 2026: IITs Round-Wise Rank Movement

The information provided regarding the round-wise data suggests that it is quite nonlinear in terms of rank movement. Most of the transitions take place in phases rather than being distributed evenly throughout the process. The final ranks in reputable institutions like IIT Bombay, IIT Delhi, and IIT Kharagpur are almost uniform in every round exhibiting the high level of student retention here (the movement is negligible, e.g. ranging between 0 and 5). On the contrary, for mid-tier and new institutes, an extensive jump occurs during certain steps of the process as can be seen in IIT Bhilai, IIT Palakkad, and IIT Dharwad which had substantial surges in the Round 4 and Round 5, accounting for 627, 830, and 634 respectively (the vast majority of rank movement takes place here). 

JEE Main 2026: Round 1 vs Round 5 Rank Movement 

The change in rank movement from Round 1 to Round 5 shows a definite separation between older institutions and newer campuses, whereby the likes of IIT Bombay, Delhi and Kharagpur have nearly zero rank improvement (from 0 to 5 positions) on account of their ability to maintain the students enrolled in their institutions while the newer and developing IIT campuses such as Palakkad, Dharwad and Bhilai have experienced a huge increase in rank (which can range from 900 to above 1000). The huge improvement in ranks of newer IITs shows how successive upgrading or withdrawal of the candidates from the seats allotted to them in the counseling process takes place which makes them reach the merit list deeper as they progress to Round 5.
