    MHT CET 2026 VJTI Expected Cutoff OBC — Roundwise Percentiles

    Article updated on Apr 22, 2026.

    VJTI Computer Engineering closed at 99.9 percentile in Round 1 of MHT CET 2026 CAP. COEP's Computer Science & IT reached up to 99.98 percentile in Round 3, confirming extreme competition for CS/IT seats in government colleges.

    MHT CET 2026 VJTI Expected Cutoff OBC — Round highlights

    VJTI OBC cutoffs stayed mostly above 99 percentile across core tech branches. Computer Engineering: Round 1 — 99.9 , Round 4 — 99.71 . Information Technology closed around 99.73 in early rounds.

    Core branches at VJTI such as Electrical and Mechanical required slightly lower percentiles than CS/IT. Electrical Engineering: Round 1 — 99.3 , Round 4 — 99.06 . Mechanical: Round 1 — 99.02 , Round 4 — 98.93 .

    MHT CET 2026 VJTI Expected Cutoff OBC: How other colleges compare

    COEP Pune and VJTI show very small cutoff gaps of 0.2–0.5 percentile on top branches. COEP CSE: Round 1 — 99.92 , Round 3 — 99.98 . COEP Electrical ranges around 99.45–99.53 across rounds.

    PICT Pune remains highly competitive for Computer Engineering, closing near 99.5–99.7 . SPIT Mumbai CSE for OBC hovered around 99.2–99.6 . VIT Pune's CS/CE cutoffs were lower, mostly in the 97–99 percentile band, with Computer Engineering at 98.77 in Round 1.

    Key roundwise cutoffs (selected branches, OBC)

    College Branch Round 1 Round 3 Round 4
    VJTI Mumbai Computer Engineering 99.9 99.75 99.71
    VJTI Mumbai Information Technology 99.73 99.71 99.71
    COEP Pune Computer Science & IT 99.92 99.98 98.9
    COEP Pune Electrical Engineering 99.45 99.52 99.53
    PICT Pune Computer Engineering 99.7 99.57 99.50
    SPIT Mumbai Computer Engineering 99.58 99.54 99.40
    VIT Pune Computer Engineering 98.77 98.57 98.55

    What this means for you

    If you are OBC and aiming for CS/IT at top government colleges, expect to need roughly 99.5–99.9+ percentile. Core branches like Mechanical or Civil usually require 0.5–2 percentile less than CS/IT, so a 99 percentile may still get you a core seat at COEP or VJTI.

    A 98 percentile OBC can target VIT Pune for CS/IT or consider branch compromise at higher-ranked colleges.

    Counselling and cutoff behaviour

    Cutoffs at top colleges showed minimal movement across rounds, indicating early seat closure and stable demand. The gap between top colleges often stays within 0.2–0.5 percentile, so small percentile differences can shift your final college or branch.

    FAQs

    What percentile is required for CS in top government colleges through MHT CET 2026 (OBC)? A: CS/IT usually requires around 99.5–99.9+ percentile for top colleges like VJTI and COEP.
    Can I get COEP Pune with 99 percentile in MHT CET (OBC)? A: Yes, 99 percentile can secure core branches like Mechanical or Civil, but CS/IT generally needs 99.9+ .
    What percentile is needed for SPIT Mumbai CSE (OBC)? A: SPIT CSE typically closes around 99.2–99.6 percentile for OBC.
    What percentile is required for PICT Pune Computer Engineering (OBC)? A: PICT Computer Engineering typically closes around 99.5–99.7 percentile.
    Are core branches easier to get than CS/IT in MHT CET colleges? A: Yes. Mechanical, Civil and similar branches generally need 0.5–2 percentile less than CS/IT.
    Can I get a good college with 98 percentile in MHT CET (OBC)? A: Yes. 98 percentile can target VIT Pune CS/IT or lower-preference branches at COEP/VJTI.
    Why is there a small cutoff gap between top colleges? A: Tight competition keeps cutoff differences small, usually 0.2–0.5 percentile.
    Does cutoff change a lot across counselling rounds? A: No. Top colleges show stable cutoffs across rounds with minimal fluctuation.
