Why is Pune a good TEF Canada option?

#
  • Published registration periods. Each date’s two-week registration period is on the calendar, so you can plan ahead.
  • Online kiosk. Seats are sold first come, first served, and a date shows as sold out once full.
  • Close to Mumbai. Mumbai candidates who miss the midnight sale at AF Bombay often book Pune instead.
Two weeks is not a guaranteeA two-week registration period doesn’t mean seats last two weeks. A session can still sell out soon after registration opens. Being told quickly matters more than being online at a fixed time. If Pune is full too, the sold-out plan lists your next moves.
