JoSAA 2017 Counselling restarted after Supreme Court vacates its stay on 10 July 2017. Earlier a ed light was shown to the Joint Seat Allocation Authority (JoSAA) after encountering with the multiple petitions by the students on the 18 Marks Policy of IIT Madras, and the stay was given to the seat allocation procedure when already 29425 students were allotted seats in the 23 Institutions. Now the supreme court has lifted its stay and directed the conducting body to continue the JEE Advanced Counselling procedure (JoSAA) to reinstate the admission process as the final hearing on the whole matter.
