Delhi University UG Admissions 2026: 13,433 Seats Vacant in Spot Round, Hindu College, Hansraj, SRCC Among Colleges on List

Delhi University Undergraduate Admissions 2026 have entered another important stage with 13,433 undergraduate seats still vacant across colleges for the 2026-27 Spot Round. The latest vacancy position includes seats across a wide range of college-programme combinations, with vacancies reported not only in programmes that may traditionally have lower demand but also in several well-known Delhi University colleges.
The latest vacancy list released by the DU Admission Branch shows that the available seats are spread across 1,160 college-programme combinations. The vacancies cover different academic disciplines and admission categories, creating another opportunity for eligible candidates seeking undergraduate admission to Delhi University against seats that remain unfilled after the earlier admission rounds.
Among the prominent institutions where vacancies continue to be listed are Hindu College, Hansraj College and Shri Ram College of Commerce (SRCC). Other colleges included in the vacancy list are Kirori Mal College, Gargi College, Daulat Singh College, Indraprastha College for Women and Dyal Singh College, among others.
The number of vacant seats differs significantly from one college and programme to another. While some highly sought-after programmes have only a small number of seats available, certain courses have vacancies running into three digits.
Delhi University UG Admission 2026: 13,433 Seats Available
According to the latest vacancy data of the Delhi University Admission Branch, a total of 13,433 undergraduate seats are available for the 2026-27 Spot Round.
The figure represents vacancies that remain after multiple admission rounds. These seats are distributed across colleges, programmes and categories rather than being concentrated in a single group of courses or institutions.
The vacancy list covers 1,160 college-programme combinations, showing the breadth of the remaining seats. The available positions include undergraduate programmes in commerce, science, humanities, languages and other academic areas.
The vacancy position is particularly notable because seats are still available in some of Delhi University's prominent colleges. However, the number of available seats varies considerably depending on the programme and category.
For students considering the Spot Round, the vacancy list therefore provides a programme-wise and category-wise picture of the seats that remain available at the time the list was prepared.
OBC-NCL Has the Largest Number of Vacant Seats
The category-wise distribution of the 13,433 vacant seats shows that the largest number is in the Other Backward Classes-Non-Creamy Layer (OBC-NCL) category.
There are 4,133 OBC-NCL seats listed as vacant for the Spot Round. This is followed by 2,476 seats for Scheduled Tribes (ST).
The number of vacant Unreserved (UR) seats stands at 2,113, while 2,038 Scheduled Caste (SC) seats and 1,791 Economically Weaker Section (EWS) seats are also available.
In addition, the vacancy list contains 566 Sikh category seats and 316 Christian category seats.
The category-wise figures indicate that vacancies are distributed across several admission categories. The largest share is represented by OBC-NCL seats, while substantial numbers are also available in ST, UR, SC and EWS categories.
The distribution, however, is not identical across all programmes. Depending on the college and course, the remaining seats can be concentrated in one category or spread across several categories.
Vacancies Reported in Hindu College
Hindu College is among the prominent Delhi University institutions where undergraduate seats remain vacant in the Spot Round.
The latest list shows 29 vacant undergraduate seats across 11 listed programmes at Hindu College.
The programmes with vacancies include Economics, B.Com (Hons.), Physics, Chemistry, Botany, Zoology and Philosophy.
The presence of vacancies across these programmes means that the remaining seats at Hindu College are not limited to one particular academic discipline. The list covers commerce, science, social science and humanities-related programmes.
The exact availability varies according to the programme and category. Therefore, the overall figure of 29 seats represents the combined vacancies across the 11 listed programmes rather than the number available in any single course.
Hansraj College Has 79 Vacant Seats
Another prominent institution appearing on the Delhi University vacancy list is Hansraj College.
The college has 79 vacant undergraduate seats across 19 programmes for the Spot Round.
The programmes listed include Computer Science, Mathematics, Physics, Chemistry, Zoology, Botany and Electronics.
Compared with the 29 seats listed across 11 programmes at Hindu College, Hansraj College has a larger number of vacancies in the latest vacancy position.
The available seats are spread across multiple science and technology-oriented programmes, including Computer Science and Electronics, as well as subjects such as Mathematics, Physics, Chemistry, Zoology and Botany.
The figure of 79 represents the vacancies across the 19 listed programmes at Hansraj College.
SRCC Vacancies Remain Limited
The vacancy position at Shri Ram College of Commerce (SRCC) is considerably smaller.
The latest list shows two vacant seats in Economics, with one seat in the Unreserved category.
In addition, two B.Com. (Hons.) seats are vacant at SRCC. These include one OBC-NCL seat and one SC seat.
Thus, the vacancies reported at SRCC are limited to a small number of seats in Economics and B.Com. (Hons.).
The figures demonstrate the sharp difference in vacancy levels among prominent Delhi University colleges. While some institutions have dozens of seats spread across several programmes, SRCC's listed vacancies are restricted to only a few seats.
Other Prominent Colleges Also Have Vacancies
The latest Delhi University vacancy list includes several other well-known colleges.
Among them are Kirori Mal College, Gargi College, Daulat Singh College, Indraprastha College for Women and Dyal Singh College.
Vacancies at these institutions form part of the overall 13,433 seats available in the Spot Round.
The number of seats differs by institution and programme. The vacancy data therefore needs to be viewed at the college-programme-category level rather than only at the institution level.
This variation is also reflected in the programmes with particularly high numbers of vacant seats.
B.Com Has One of the Largest Programme-Level Vacancies
Some individual programmes have significantly larger vacancies than others.
The largest single programme-level vacancy in the latest list is reported at Swami Shardhanand College, where 145 seats remain vacant in B.Com.
The 145 vacant B.Com seats comprise:
66 OBC-NCL seats
34 SC seats
34 ST seats
11 EWS seats
The vacancy figure makes B.Com at Swami Shardhanand College the programme with the highest single programme-level vacancy in the listed data.
The category-wise distribution also shows that the available seats in this programme are spread across four categories.
Home Science Seats Vacant at Institute of Home Economics
The vacancy list also shows a substantial number of seats available in B.Sc. (Pass) Home Science.
At the Institute of Home Economics, there are 131 vacant seats in B.Sc. (Pass) Home Science.
Another significant vacancy is reported at Lady Irwin College, where 101 seats are vacant in the same programme.
These figures place B.Sc. (Pass) Home Science among the programmes with some of the largest individual vacancy numbers in the latest Delhi University Spot Round list.
The vacancies at the two colleges are separate figures, with 131 seats listed at the Institute of Home Economics and 101 at Lady Irwin College.
Science Programmes Also Show Significant Vacancies
The remaining vacancies are not limited to commerce and Home Science programmes.
Several science programmes also have sizeable numbers of seats available in the Spot Round.
At Shyam Lal College, 112 seats are vacant in B.Sc. Physical Science with Chemistry.
Other colleges also have vacancies in programmes related to Physical Science, Chemistry, Mathematics and other science disciplines.
The vacancy data therefore covers a broad range of academic fields. Along with commerce and Home Science, science programmes account for some of the larger programme-level vacancy figures.
Vacancy Distribution Covers Multiple Categories
The Delhi University vacancy list shows that the remaining seats are distributed across multiple admission categories.
The 4,133 OBC-NCL vacancies form the largest category-wise group. This is followed by 2,476 ST seats, 2,113 UR seats, 2,038 SC seats and 1,791 EWS seats.
There are also 566 Sikh category vacancies and 316 Christian category vacancies.
The category-wise figures are not uniform from programme to programme. Some courses have a greater concentration of vacancies in reserved categories, while other programmes have seats available across UR, OBC-NCL, SC, ST and EWS categories.
This means that students looking at the Spot Round need to consider the specific category and programme rather than relying only on the overall vacancy figure.
Humanities Courses Also Feature in the Vacancy List
The latest list also includes vacancies in several humanities programmes.
At Dyal Singh College, vacancies are reported in programmes including Hindi, Sanskrit, Punjabi and Urdu. The college also has vacancies in science and commerce-related courses.
At Kalindi College, B.A. (Hons.) Sanskrit has 68 vacant seats, while B.A. (Hons.) Hindi has 54 vacant seats.
These figures show that the remaining undergraduate vacancies extend into language and humanities programmes as well as science and commerce.
The presence of vacancies across these subjects adds to the diversity of programmes represented in the Spot Round list.
Zakir Husain Delhi College Reports Vacancies Across Disciplines
Zakir Husain Delhi College also has vacancies across a number of academic areas.
The latest vacancy figures include seats in humanities, languages, commerce and science.
The list includes 27 seats in B.A. (Hons.) Persian and 27 seats in B.A. (Hons.) Bengali.
Science programmes at the college also have substantial vacancies. These include 32 seats in B.Sc. (Hons.) Mathematics, 51 seats in B.Sc. (Hons.) Chemistry and 56 seats in B.Sc. Physical Science with Chemistry.
The figures are based on the category-wise vacancy details listed by Delhi University.
The vacancies at Zakir Husain Delhi College therefore span multiple academic areas, with seats available in language programmes as well as mathematics, chemistry and physical science.
Delhi University Spot Round Offers Another Admission Opportunity
The remaining seats are being made available as part of the 2026-27 Spot Round.
The Spot Round provides eligible students with another opportunity to seek undergraduate admission against seats that remain vacant following the earlier admission rounds.
However, the availability of a seat depends on the specific college, programme and admission category.
The latest list demonstrates this variation clearly. Some programmes at prominent colleges have only a handful of seats available, while certain programmes at other colleges have vacancies exceeding 100 seats.
Therefore, the overall figure of 13,433 vacant seats does not mean that all 13,433 seats are available in every programme or college. The seats are distributed across 1,160 college-programme combinations.
DU Says Vacancy Figures Are Subject to Change
Delhi University has cautioned that the latest vacancy numbers should not necessarily be treated as final.
The vacancy position was prepared as of 1 pm on August 23.
According to the university, the exact number of vacant seats can change because of factors including reconciliation, withdrawals, cancellations and grievance redressal.
The university has also stated that withdrawals will remain suspended during the Spot Round.
As a result, the vacancy position may differ as the admission process continues and the relevant admission-related processes are taken into account.
Students therefore need to consider the latest available vacancy information while looking at Spot Round opportunities.
Why the College-Programme Combination Matters
The Delhi University vacancy figures show that seat availability varies significantly between individual programmes.
For example, Hindu College has 29 vacancies across 11 programmes, while Hansraj College has 79 vacancies across 19 programmes. SRCC, meanwhile, has only a few vacancies in Economics and B.Com. (Hons.).
At the programme level, the difference is even more pronounced. Swami Shardhanand College has 145 vacant B.Com seats, while the Institute of Home Economics has 131 vacancies in B.Sc. (Pass) Home Science.
Similarly, Lady Irwin College has 101 vacant seats in B.Sc. (Pass) Home Science, while Shyam Lal College has 112 vacancies in B.Sc. Physical Science with Chemistry.
The figures illustrate why students need to examine the individual programme and category details in the university's vacancy list.
Courses With Triple-Digit Vacancies
Several programmes in the latest list have vacancies running into three digits.
The highest single programme-level vacancy reported is 145 seats in B.Com at Swami Shardhanand College.
This is followed by 131 vacancies in B.Sc. (Pass) Home Science at the Institute of Home Economics, 112 vacancies in B.Sc. Physical Science with Chemistry at Shyam Lal College, and 101 vacancies in B.Sc. (Pass) Home Science at Lady Irwin College.
These figures represent individual programme-level vacancies and form part of the university-wide total of 13,433 vacant undergraduate seats.
The availability of such numbers alongside smaller vacancies at prominent colleges demonstrates the considerable variation in the Spot Round vacancy position.
Language Programmes Continue to Have Vacancies
The vacancy list also records seats in language-based programmes.
Dyal Singh College has vacancies in Hindi, Sanskrit, Punjabi and Urdu programmes.
At Kalindi College, 68 seats are vacant in B.A. (Hons.) Sanskrit, while 54 seats remain vacant in B.A. (Hons.) Hindi.
Zakir Husain Delhi College also has 27 vacant seats in B.A. (Hons.) Persian and 27 in B.A. (Hons.) Bengali.
These figures form part of the wider vacancy position covering humanities and language programmes across Delhi University colleges.
Science, Commerce and Humanities All Represented
The latest vacancy list covers several major academic disciplines.
Commerce vacancies include the significant 145-seat B.Com vacancy at Swami Shardhanand College, along with the B.Com. (Hons.) vacancies listed at SRCC.
Science vacancies include programmes such as Physics, Chemistry, Botany, Zoology, Mathematics, Electronics and Physical Science with Chemistry.
Humanities and language programmes include Philosophy, Hindi, Sanskrit, Punjabi, Urdu, Persian and Bengali.
The list therefore reflects vacancies across a broad range of undergraduate academic programmes rather than a single subject group.
Prominent Colleges and Remaining Seats
The inclusion of prominent colleges in the Spot Round vacancy list is one of the notable aspects of the latest data.
At Hindu College, the listed programmes include Economics, B.Com (Hons.), Physics, Chemistry, Botany, Zoology and Philosophy.
At Hansraj College, vacancies are listed in Computer Science, Mathematics, Physics, Chemistry, Zoology, Botany and Electronics.
At SRCC, the available seats are limited to Economics and B.Com. (Hons.).
Kirori Mal College, Gargi College, Daulat Singh College, Indraprastha College for Women and Dyal Singh College are also among the institutions with vacancies.
The number and type of available seats differ across these colleges and their individual programmes.
What the 13,433 Figure Represents
The 13,433-seat figure is the total number of undergraduate vacancies listed for the 2026-27 Spot Round according to the latest DU Admission Branch vacancy list.
It includes seats across 1,160 college-programme combinations.
The total includes vacancies in OBC-NCL, ST, UR, SC, EWS, Sikh and Christian categories.
The figures include both small and large programme-level vacancies. Some courses have only a few seats remaining, while others have vacancies exceeding 100.
The university has also made clear that the figures were prepared at a specific point in time and can change because of reconciliation, withdrawals, cancellations and grievance redressal.

Vacancy Numbers May Change During the Process
Delhi University has specifically indicated that the vacancy figures are subject to change.

DU has said that reconciliation, withdrawals, cancellations and grievance redressal can affect the exact number of available seats.
The university has also stated that withdrawals will remain suspended during the Spot Round.
Consequently, students considering the Spot Round should treat the vacancy list as a current position rather than an unchangeable final count.
Final Picture of DU UG Admission 2026 Vacancies
The latest Delhi University undergraduate admission vacancy list places the total number of seats available for the 2026-27 Spot Round at 13,433.
The seats are spread across 1,160 college-programme combinations, covering a wide range of institutions, courses and admission categories.
The largest category-wise vacancy pool is OBC-NCL with 4,133 seats, followed by ST with 2,476, UR with 2,113, SC with 2,038 and EWS with 1,791. The list also includes 566 Sikh category seats and 316 Christian category seats.
Prominent colleges such as Hindu College, Hansraj College and SRCC continue to have vacancies, although the numbers differ significantly. Hindu College has 29 seats across 11 listed programmes, Hansraj College has 79 across 19 programmes, while SRCC has only a few seats listed in Economics and B.Com. (Hons.).
At the programme level, some of the largest vacancies are reported in B.Com, B.Sc. (Pass) Home Science and B.Sc. Physical Science with Chemistry. Humanities and language programmes also feature prominently in the vacancy list, with notable vacancies in Sanskrit, Hindi, Persian and Bengali.
The Spot Round consequently presents another opportunity for eligible students to seek admission to programmes where seats remain available after earlier rounds. At the same time, the university has cautioned that vacancy figures can change because of reconciliation, withdrawals, cancellations and grievance redressal.
The latest vacancy position, prepared at 1 pm on August 23, therefore provides the current snapshot of undergraduate seats available across Delhi University for the 2026-27 Spot Round.
