Management quota seats are rarely available at these colleges. Mainly, these colleges admit students through various rounds known as central admission process (CAP) rounds. These are undertaken by the Directorate of Technical Education (DTE), Maharashtra.

• If you are considering admission to either of these colleges, admission through these rounds is always on the basis of merit. 
• Usually, there are three CAP rounds carried out. Now, if seats still remain vacant after these rounds, they might admit students through management quota. 
• Management quota seats are not available before round 3. By the end of round 3, all seats in the popular branches are usually filed.

If you are planning to pursue chemical or production engineering, you can wait till round 3 is over, otherwise, it is not recommended.

Joint Seat Allocation Authority (JoSAA) offers the seat matrix for all the IIITs in India. For IIIT Allahabad, the following is the seat matrix for the academic year 2020-21:

The mathematics which the students study now at the undergraduate level is different from what they study for the JEE preparation. There are only a few courses of applied math where you will do the coding, IISER Kolkata offers one such course.

• If you want to find out more about coding, there are several MOOCs offered by several best universities across the planet online.
• The college environment also plays a crucial role in one's overall development, be it socially or academically, IISER Kolkata offers a good environment. 

Lastly, if you would like to pursue research in Math then definitely join IISER Kolkata, or if you would like to only do applied mathematics (coding) and obtain a job then you ought not to choose IISER Kolkata.

Students who get admission at PEC through spot round usually get branches like Production or Civil Engineering. It is true that classes at PEC Chandigarh begin before the spot-round selection. You will also miss the orientation program and which according to the students of the institutes are quite boring sometimes. So you may miss some of the lectures, but it is of the least concern because you will be easily able to cover up the portion that you missed out on. Your fellow classmates can help you out with the same, besides mostly introductions are done over that 1st week. 

After the manual counseling i.e. the spot round is over visit PEC for registration, after that you can start attending the classes.

Neither IET DAVV and SGSITS have management quota seats. 

IET DAVV:

• IET DAVV is a government-funded college so there is no management quota available and there is no other option to get direct admission into the college. 
• If you want to get admission to this college, then you have to appear for JEE exams and score a higher rank to be eligible for admission here. 
• You can also apply for college-level counseling for which you need a higher rank to get selected in this college. 

SGSITS:

• SGSITS is a government-run college so there is no management quota too. This is one of the oldest and reputed colleges of Madhya Pradesh and to get admission you have to score very good marks in your JEE exams. 
• You can also apply for college-level counseling but for this, you need a higher JEE rank. 
• If you are from Madhya Pradesh itself, then you can increase your chances for admission by showing your MP domicile certificate. 

Hope this helps.

Chances are not much good as the number of seats in the thermal specialization are less (only 18) and IIT Bhubaneswar conducts a rigorous interview (half an hour to 45 minutes per candidate), within that duration you need to explain the topics on the board to the interviewers. Some of the interview questions asked in the previous year were boundary layer theory, transient heat conduction, the significance of Prandtl, Nusselt, etc.

The process for admission in the course is based on marks secured in graduation. The student must have 60% marks or 6.5 CGPA in a 10-point scale in Mechanical Engineering or equivalent (with a valid GATE score). 

The final selection of regular candidates will be based on the combined scores of the candidates in GATE (70%) and the written test (30%). The Written Test and Interview shall be given equal weightage of 15% each.

Students in the unreserved category will be eligible to sit in the interview subject to scoring a minimum of 40% marks in the written test and for final selection a minimum of 50% marks in the interview.

Hence, an interview becomes a very crucial factor in securing admission. It is completely technical in nature as explained above it judges the in-depth knowledge of the applicant in the subject. NPTEL lectures can be useful in preparing for the interview so as to enhance the understanding of the in-depth concepts of the subject in detail. Since the analysis part of some concepts as mentioned above can also be asked. The project report is also required there so one can expect questions from there also.

Finally, the cut off of the course is around 600 hence you can expect to have a fair chance if you have good understanding and command over your subjects.
