This facility applies specifically to:
- Candidates who had opted for FLOAT in Round 1 of MCC’s UG Counselling 2026,
- Had earlier joined the seat allotted to them in Round 1,
- Did not upgrade in Round 2 (i.e., their Round 1 seat was retained),
- But now wish to resign/withdraw from that retained seat.
