Quota-Wise Seat Distribution

Seats across each college are split into three broad quota categories:

• HP Quota – reserved for domiciled Himachal Pradesh candidates, further broken down into General, EWS, Backward Area, Children of J&K Migrants, Children of Tibetan Refugees, OBC, Physically Handicapped, SC, ST, Single Girl Child, Ward of Freedom Fighters, Wards/Wives of Defence Personnel, and Widows/Wards of Ex-Servicemen.
