Punjab Technical University (IKGPTU) no longer conducts a separate Punjab CET for engineering courses. B.Tech admissions to PTU and affiliated colleges are now based on JEE Main 2026 scores and Class 12 merit. Students must apply through the PTU counselling portal.
IK Gujral Punjab Technical University will conduct centralized counselling for B.Tech admissions starting July 2026. The admission process will include JEE Main merit evaluation, application submission, merit list release, and seat allotment.
