What S1H category means in Karnataka (KEA)

Scheduled Caste SCA — Kalyana-Karnataka — and the verified closing ranks it drew.

In short

S1H is Scheduled Caste SCA — Kalyana-Karnataka. The site holds 151 verified S1H closing ranks across 103 Karnataka colleges (2026).

What the S1H code tells you

S1H is Scheduled Caste SCA — Kalyana-Karnataka, a column in KEA's own cut-off publications. Read it in parts. S1 is the category: one of the four columns KEA has printed Scheduled Caste as since 2026 — S1 is SCA, S2 is SCB, S3 is SCC (80%) and S4 is SCC (20%), per the key at the foot of every page of the official cut-off PDF. There is no single Scheduled Caste closing rank for 2026, and this site does not print one. The H places it in the 371(J) Kalyana-Karnataka pool: the column comes from KEA's separate 371(J) publication, not the Rest-of-Karnataka file.

Which category applies to you is printed on your CET admission ticket and set by government order, not by this site. Compare S1H closing ranks with your category rank, not the overall rank printed largest on your result — KEA publishes both, and they are different numbers. This site holds 151 verified S1H closing ranks across 103 colleges (2026), each transcribed from an official KEA allotment publication and listed exam by exam below.

How the code is built

KEA codes read left to right. Decoding the parts lets you read any code in the allotment file, not just this one.

PartValuesWhat it says
HeadGM, 1, 2A, 2B, 3A, 3B, SC/S1–S4, STThe vertical category — who competes in that column.
MiddleG, R, KGeneral, Rural or Kannada-medium — the horizontal reservation inside the category. Rural and Kannada-medium need their own 10-year study certificates.
TailH (and KH / RH)Present only in the 371(J) Kalyana-Karnataka publication: GMH is General Merit in the HK pool, GMKH its Kannada-medium variant, GMRH its rural variant. A code without H comes from the Rest-of-Karnataka file.

The full KEA suffix table covers every code, including the ones with no published closing ranks.

What S1H actually closed at

The two ends of the published range. Every figure is transcribed from the official allotment publication — a rank between these is not a promise of a seat, it is what this category drew last time.
