Why does the "appeared" count differ from "registered"?

Many students register for both sessions but only appear in one. Some register but do not show up on exam day. The "appeared" count reflects only those who actually sat for the exam. NTA counts unique candidates across sessions for the final percentile calculation — a student appearing in both sessions is counted once.
