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: 14 seats − 1 joined = 13 empty. 14 students were allotted; 13 did not join or gave the seat up. MCC’s Round 2 list showed 13 open.
Round 2: 13 open + 0 freed = 13 available → 13 filled. Every available seat was filled.
After Round 2 joining: 1 Round 1 students stayed + 13 placed in Round 2 = 14; 4 students placed in Round 2 did not join, so 10 students hold seats. MCC’s Round 3 list showed 5 open.
Round 3: 5 open + 1 freed = 6 available − 5 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 · PwD
Round 1: 1 seat − 0 joined = 1 empty. MCC’s Round 2 list showed 1 open.
Round 2: 1 open + 0 freed = 1 available → 1 filled. Every available seat was filled.

The maths: All India · OBC
Round 1: 9 seats − 1 joined = 8 empty. 10 students were allotted; 9 did not join or gave the seat up. MCC’s Round 2 list showed 8 open.
Round 2: 8 open + 0 freed = 8 available → 8 filled. Every available seat was filled.
After Round 2 joining: 1 Round 1 students stayed + 8 placed in Round 2 = 9; 7 students placed in Round 2 did not join, so 2 students hold seats. MCC’s Round 3 list showed 7 open.
