I took an entrance exam because due to covid-19, the 10th exams were not conducted (2020 batch). Generally, admission will be based on 10th marks. Application fees are just 400 only and also even have concessions based on caste. And reservation benefits are also there for SCs, STs, EWS, NCC, PH, Sports, and CAP. Admission will run smoothly no worries.
