IIT Seat Matrix 2025 – Everything You Need to Know

The Indian Institutes of Technology (IITs) are among the top engineering colleges in India, attracting lakhs of students every year who appear for the JEE Advanced exam with the dream of getting admission. To help students understand how many seats are available in each IIT, the Joint Seat Allocation Authority (JoSAA) releases the official IIT Seat Matrix every year. The IIT Seat Matrix 2025 has been released, offering key details about the total number of B.Tech seats, branch-wise distribution, and category-wise reservation.

As per the latest data, there are around 17,740 undergraduate engineering seats available across the 23 IITs for the academic year 2025–26. These include seats for various categories like General (Open), Economically Weaker Section (EWS), Other Backward Classes (OBC-NCL), Scheduled Castes (SC), and Scheduled Tribes (ST), along with PwD (Persons with Disabilities) sub-categories. The seat matrix also mentions gender-neutral and female-only supernumerary seats to promote gender diversity in IITs.

Here are some highlights from the IIT Seat Matrix 2025:

• IIT Bombay offers approximately 1,368 seats across its popular programs like Computer Science, Electrical, Mechanical, and more, including reserved and female-only seats.
• IIT Delhi has around 1,209 B.Tech seats, with category-wise allocation based on the central reservation policy.
