General (UR) : This category usually has the highest number of seats, often around 50% of the total seats available in each IIT.

OBC-NCL (Non-Creamy Layer) : Approximately 27% of the total seats are reserved for OBC candidates. This reservation is meant for candidates from non-creamy layers within the OBC category.

SC : Around 15% of the total seats are reserved for Scheduled Caste candidates. This reservation is meant for candidates who belong to the SC category.

PwD : There is also a horizontal reservation for Persons with Disabilities. Typically, 5% of the total seats are reserved for PwD candidates across all categories.
