Dear student,

Float means - you have accepted the seat but you want a higher preference branch in other institutes in further counselling rounds. If you got allotted a higher or upgraded seat then you can take it, and your previously alloted seat will be forfeited.

But if you do not get upgraded seat in further rounds then your previously alloted seat will remain with you.

Now if you have paid seat acceptance fees one time then you don't have to pay once again the seat acceptance fees after you get a higher upgraded branch.

So, this seat acceptance fees is one time only and if your payment is done then there is no worry for making another payment for a higher preference or upgraded branch.
