Candidates who have been successfully allotted seats must now prepare for physical reporting and document verification at their respective medical colleges.

Seat Allotment Results and Essential Reporting Protocol

  • Result Declaration: The Medical Counselling Committee (MCC) published the Round-3 allotment list today, February 3, 2026. Candidates can access their status on the official MCC portal using their NEET PG roll number and password.
  • Reporting Window: Successful candidates are required to report to their allotted medical colleges between February 4 and February 11, 2026. Failure to report within this timeframe will lead to the cancellation of the allotted seat.
  • Document Readiness: Physical presence at the institute is mandatory. Aspirants must carry original documents, including the MBBS degree, internship completion certificate, and the MCC allotment letter for biometric verification.
  • Fee Submission: Tuition fees must be deposited during the reporting phase as per the specific guidelines of the individual medical colleges to confirm the admission.
  • College Procedures: Some institutes may require 2-3 days for internal verification and medical fitness tests; hence, candidates are advised to plan their travel and stay accordingly.

Final Phase Dynamics and Policy Enforcement

  • Stray Vacancy Eligibility: Those who join their allotted Round-3 seat will be ineligible for the subsequent stray vacancy round. This policy is strictly enforced to prevent seat blocking and ensure a fair distribution of remaining medical seats.
  • No Resignation Policy: Once a candidate reports and joins a seat in Round-3, they are not permitted to resign or vacate the seat. This ensures the finality of the allotment process as the academic session gains momentum.
  • Seat Matrix Updates: This round saw the addition of nearly 292 new seats following court orders and capacity expansions, providing last-minute relief to many high-ranking aspirants.
  • State vs. Central Timelines: While the AIQ reporting concludes by mid-February, State Counselling Authorities are expected to finish their corresponding Round-3 joining processes by February 17, 2026.
