you are probably right. Kaani, last year quota enni petitions denied anedhi, data ledu. I just see 40K from FY 2019 (thanks to h1 data hub).

Lets estimate: 110K STEM petitioners, 90K regular petitioners

63% * 110K = 69K  Remove 20K from master quota. So, 49K from regular quota

Regular Cap  = 65K - (6800 for chile and singapore) + 20k (unused petitions from 2018 April) = 80K

80k - 49k = 31 k picked from everyone else (31/90 = 33% )

there won't be a case of 20k unused from last year. Do you have data?
