Freed = seats released during that round because the student holding them upgraded to another college; MCC gives these out in the same round, which is why a round can fill more seats than its official vacancy list.
How we worked it out — step by step
The maths: All India · Open (UR)
Round 1: 10 seats − 6 joined = 4 empty. 11 students were allotted; 5 did not join or gave the seat up. MCC’s Round 2 list showed 5 open (MCC added or moved 1 seat here).
Round 2: 5 open + 0 freed = 5 available → 5 filled. Every available seat was filled.
After Round 2 joining: 6 Round 1 students stayed + 5 placed in Round 2 = 11; 7 students placed in Round 2 did not join, so 4 students hold seats. MCC’s Round 3 list showed 8 open.
Round 3: 8 open + 1 freed = 9 available − 8 filled = 1 seat left for the mop-up. “Freed” = 1 student holding a seat here upgraded elsewhere in Round 3.
The maths: All India · OBC
Round 1: 7 seats − 7 joined = 0 empty. 8 students were allotted; 1 did not join or gave the seat up. MCC’s Round 2 list showed 1 open (MCC added or moved 1 seat here).
Round 2: 1 open + 2 freed = 3 available → 3 filled. “Freed” = 2 students who had joined here in Round 1 got a better college in Round 2; their seats were given out in the same round. Every available seat was filled.
After Round 2 joining: 5 Round 1 students stayed + 3 placed in Round 2 = 8; 5 students placed in Round 2 did not join, so 3 students hold seats. MCC’s Round 3 list showed 5 open.
Round 3: 5 open + 2 freed = 7 available − 7 filled = 0 seats left for the mop-up. “Freed” = 2 students holding a seat here upgraded elsewhere in Round 3.
The maths: All India · SC
Round 1: 5 seats − 4 joined = 1 empty. 5 students were allotted; 1 did not join or gave the seat up. MCC’s Round 2 list showed 1 open.

After Round 2 joining: 4 Round 1 students stayed + 1 placed in Round 2 = 5; 4 students placed in Round 2 did not join, so 1 student holds a seat. MCC’s Round 3 list showed 5 open.

Round 3: 1 open + 0 freed = 1 available − 1 filled = 0 seats left for the mop-up.
