The Commissionerate of Medical Education (DME), Chhattisgarh, has released the revised provisional allotment list for Round 3 (mop-up round) of NEET UG 2026 counselling for MBBS and BDS seats on 10 October 2026. This is the final round of seat allocation in the state's counselling process. If your name appears on this list, you have been allotted a seat in a government or private medical or dental college in Chhattisgarh. You must now complete the joining formalities within the deadline set by the DME, or your seat will be cancelled and offered to the next candidate on the waiting list.
Check the revised Round 3 allotment list immediately; if allotted, you must report to your college and complete joining procedures by the deadline or lose your seat.

Unlock My College ListWhat is Round 3 (Mop-up Round) and Why It Matters
Round 3, also called the mop-up round, is the final round of seat allocation in Chhattisgarh's NEET UG 2026 counselling process. By this stage, most seats have been filled in Rounds 1 and 2. The mop-up round is designed to fill any remaining vacant seats — these may arise because candidates did not join after being allotted, or because seats were kept reserved and are now being released.
This is your last chance to secure a seat through the state counselling process. After Round 3, if seats remain unfilled, they may be offered through spot counselling or other mechanisms, but the main counselling process ends here. If you have been waiting for an allotment and your name appears on this list, act immediately — delays in joining can result in forfeiture of your seat.
How to Check Your Allotment Status
The DME has published the revised provisional allotment list as a PDF document on its official website (cgdme.in). You must download and carefully review this list to see if your name and roll number appear.
To find your name: (1) Download the PDF from the DME website link provided in the notice. (2) Search for your NEET roll number or name in the document. (3) Note the college name, course (MBBS or BDS), and category under which you have been allotted. (4) If your name is listed, you are provisionally allotted; if not, you are not allotted in this round.
The list is 'provisional' because it is subject to verification of your documents and eligibility. Your allotment becomes final only after you report to the college, submit all required documents, and complete the joining process.
- Download the PDF from cgdme.in
- Search for your NEET roll number
- Note your allotted college, course, and category
- Verify the information matches your application
What 'Revised' Means — Why This List Was Updated
The allotment list is described as 'revised,' which means the DME has made corrections or updates to an earlier version of the Round 3 list. This can happen for several reasons: candidates who were allotted in an earlier round but did not join have been removed, new vacancies have been identified and filled, or errors in the previous list have been corrected.
Always check the LATEST (revised) list, not any earlier version you may have seen. If you were on an earlier version of the list but do not appear on this revised list, it means your allotment has been cancelled — this typically happens if you did not join after a previous allotment or if you were moved to a different college. Contact the DME immediately if you believe this is an error.
Important: This Is a Provisional Allotment, Not Final
Appearing on the allotment list does NOT guarantee your seat is permanent. Your allotment is 'provisional' — it is conditional on your meeting all eligibility requirements and successfully completing the joining process at your allotted college.
The college will verify your documents (NEET scorecard, 12th mark sheet, category certificate, domicile certificate, etc.) when you report. If any document is missing, invalid, or does not match your application, your allotment can be cancelled even after you appear on the list. This is why it is critical to have all original documents ready and to report to the college on time.

What You Must Do After Seeing Your Name on the List
If your name appears on the revised allotment list, you must take immediate action. The DME will have set a deadline by which you must report to your allotted college and complete joining formalities. This deadline is typically 2–5 days from the date of the allotment list release. Delays or failure to join will result in automatic cancellation of your seat.
Step 1: Confirm your allotment details — college name, course (MBBS or BDS), category, and seat type (government or private). Step 2: Gather all original documents (NEET scorecard, 12th mark sheet, category certificate if applicable, domicile certificate, Aadhaar, passport-size photos, etc.). Step 3: Contact your allotted college to confirm the exact reporting date, time, and location. Step 4: Report to the college on or before the deadline with all documents. Step 5: Complete the joining process as instructed by the college (document verification, fee payment, hostel registration, etc.).
Do not delay. The joining deadline is strict, and the DME will not grant extensions. If you are unable to join due to an emergency, contact the DME and your college immediately to request a waiver — but such requests are rarely granted.
- Check the joining deadline (usually 2–5 days from allotment release)
- Gather all original documents
- Contact your college to confirm reporting details
- Report to the college on time with all documents
- Complete joining formalities (verification, fee payment, etc.)
- Do not delay — missing the deadline forfeits your seat
Documents You Must Carry When Reporting to College
When you report to your allotted college, you must bring all original documents for verification. The college will not accept photocopies for the initial verification. Bring the following:
Original NEET UG 2026 scorecard (issued by NTA), original 12th mark sheet and passing certificate, original category certificate (if you applied under SC/ST/OBC/EWS category), original domicile/residence certificate of Chhattisgarh (if applicable), original Aadhaar card or passport, 4–6 passport-size photographs (color, recent), original migration certificate (if you studied 12th outside Chhattisgarh), and any other document specified in the DME's joining instructions.
If you are applying under a reserved category (SC, ST, OBC, EWS), your category certificate MUST be valid and issued by the competent authority. An invalid or expired certificate will result in rejection of your application and cancellation of your allotment. Similarly, if you are claiming domicile of Chhattisgarh, your domicile certificate must clearly state that you are a resident of the state.
- NEET UG 2026 scorecard (original)
- 12th mark sheet and passing certificate (original)
- Category certificate if applicable (original, valid, issued by competent authority)
- Domicile/residence certificate of Chhattisgarh (original, if required)
- Aadhaar card or passport (original)
- 4–6 passport-size photographs (color, recent)
- Migration certificate (if 12th studied outside Chhattisgarh)
- Any other document as per DME joining instructions
Seats Filled in Round 3 — What Types Are Available
Round 3 (mop-up round) typically fills remaining seats across all categories and seat types. This includes government MBBS seats, government BDS seats, private MBBS seats, and private BDS seats. The exact number of seats available in Round 3 depends on how many candidates joined after Rounds 1 and 2.
Seats may also be available under reserved categories (SC, ST, OBC, EWS) if candidates allotted in earlier rounds did not join. If you belong to a reserved category and were not allotted in Rounds 1 or 2, you have a chance in Round 3. However, if you are in the general category and no general seats are available, you will not be allotted in this round.
- Government MBBS seats
- Government BDS seats
- Private MBBS seats
- Private BDS seats
- Reserved category seats (SC, ST, OBC, EWS) if available
If Your Name Is NOT on the List — What Happens Next
Every kind of MBBS/BDS seat, one rank
See the real seats your NEET rank can reach.
If you do not see your name on the revised Round 3 allotment list, it means you have not been allotted a seat in this round. This can happen for several reasons: your rank was not high enough to secure a seat in any available college, you did not meet the eligibility criteria for the colleges with available seats, or all seats matching your category and preferences were filled by higher-ranked candidates.
After Round 3, the DME may conduct spot counselling or other special rounds to fill any remaining seats. Watch the DME website (cgdme.in) for announcements about further rounds. If no more counselling rounds are conducted, you can apply to private medical colleges directly or consider taking the NEET exam again next year. Do not assume your admission is over — check the DME website regularly for updates.
- Your rank may not have been high enough for available seats
- You may not have met eligibility criteria for available colleges
- All seats in your category may have been filled
- Watch for spot counselling or special round announcements
- Consider direct admission to private colleges
- Plan for NEET 2027 if no further rounds are conducted
Common Mistakes That Get Your Allotment Cancelled
Even if your name is on the allotment list, your seat can be cancelled if you make certain mistakes. The most common reason is failing to report to the college by the joining deadline. The DME and colleges are strict about this — if you do not show up on time, your seat is automatically forfeited and offered to the next candidate on the waiting list.
Another major mistake is submitting invalid or incomplete documents. If your category certificate is expired, your domicile certificate does not clearly state Chhattisgarh residency, your 12th mark sheet is missing, or your NEET scorecard is not original, the college will reject your application. Similarly, if you applied under a reserved category but cannot produce a valid category certificate issued by the competent authority, your allotment will be cancelled and you will be moved to the general category — which may result in loss of your seat if no general seats are available.
A third mistake is providing false information in your application. If the college discovers that your category, domicile, or other details were misrepresented, your allotment will be cancelled and you may face legal action. Always ensure that every detail in your application is accurate and supported by valid documents.
- ⚠️ Missing the joining deadline — seat is forfeited immediately
- ⚠️ Invalid or expired category certificate — allotment cancelled
- ⚠️ Domicile certificate not clearly stating Chhattisgarh residency — rejected
- ⚠️ Missing original documents (NEET scorecard, 12th mark sheet) — allotment cancelled
- ⚠️ False information in application (category, domicile, name) — allotment cancelled and legal action possible
- ⚠️ Incomplete documents at the time of joining — allotment cancelled
Joining Fees and Payment Process
When you report to your allotted college, you will be required to pay a joining fee. The amount varies depending on whether you have been allotted a government or private college seat. Government college seats typically have a lower fee (often ₹5,000–₹10,000 for the first semester), while private college seats have higher fees (often ₹2–₹5 lakhs or more per year, depending on the college).
The college will provide you with a fee structure and payment instructions when you report. Payment is usually made via bank transfer, demand draft, or online payment. Ensure you obtain a receipt for all payments made. Do not pay any fee to anyone other than the college's official accounts office — there are frequent scams targeting newly admitted students.
If you are unable to pay the full fee immediately, contact the college to ask about installment options or fee waivers (if you are eligible under any scholarship scheme). However, most colleges require at least the first installment to be paid on the day of joining.
- Government college seats: typically ₹5,000–₹10,000 per semester
- Private college seats: typically ₹2–₹5 lakhs or more per year
- Payment methods: bank transfer, demand draft, or online
- Always obtain a receipt for payments
- Do not pay anyone other than the college's official accounts office
- Ask about installment options if you cannot pay the full fee upfront

See My CollegesFrequently asked questions
What does 'provisional allotment' mean? Is my seat guaranteed?
Provisional allotment means you have been tentatively allotted a seat, but it is not final until you report to the college, submit all original documents, and complete the joining process. The college will verify your documents and eligibility. If any document is invalid, missing, or does not match your application, your allotment can be cancelled even after you appear on the list. Your seat becomes final only after you have completed all joining formalities.
I see my name on the allotment list. What must I do now?
Immediately: (1) Note your allotted college, course, and category. (2) Gather all original documents (NEET scorecard, 12th mark sheet, category certificate, domicile certificate, Aadhaar, photos). (3) Contact your college to confirm the exact reporting date and time. (4) Report to the college on or before the joining deadline with all documents. (5) Complete joining formalities (document verification, fee payment, etc.). Do not delay — missing the deadline will result in forfeiture of your seat.
What is the joining deadline? How much time do I have?
The notice does not specify the exact joining deadline. The DME typically sets a deadline of 2–5 days from the date of allotment release. You must check the DME website (cgdme.in) or contact your allotted college immediately to confirm the exact deadline. Do not assume you have time — act now.
My name is not on the allotment list. Does this mean I will not get a seat?
Not necessarily. It means you have not been allotted in Round 3. The DME may conduct spot counselling or other special rounds after Round 3 to fill remaining seats. Watch the DME website for announcements. If no further rounds are conducted, you can apply to private medical colleges directly or consider taking NEET again next year.
What documents must I bring when I report to the college?
Bring all original documents: NEET scorecard, 12th mark sheet and passing certificate, category certificate (if applicable), domicile certificate (if required), Aadhaar card or passport, 4–6 passport-size photographs, and migration certificate (if 12th studied outside Chhattisgarh). The college will not accept photocopies for initial verification. If any document is missing or invalid, your allotment can be cancelled.
My category certificate is expired. Will my allotment be cancelled?
Yes, an expired category certificate is invalid and will result in cancellation of your allotment. You must obtain a fresh, valid category certificate from the competent authority before reporting to the college. If you cannot produce a valid certificate, you will be moved to the general category — which may result in loss of your seat if no general seats are available.
What if I cannot join by the deadline due to an emergency?
Contact the DME and your college immediately to request a waiver. However, such requests are rarely approved, and the DME is strict about the joining deadline. Do not assume you will get an extension. It is better to report on time and sort out any issues after joining than to miss the deadline and lose your seat.
How much fee will I have to pay when I join?
The fee depends on whether you are joining a government or private college. Government college seats typically cost ₹5,000–₹10,000 per semester, while private college seats cost ₹2–₹5 lakhs or more per year. The college will provide the exact fee structure when you report. Payment is usually made via bank transfer or online. Ask about installment options if you cannot pay the full fee upfront.
What does 'revised' allotment list mean? Why was the list updated?
The list is 'revised' because the DME has made corrections or updates to an earlier version. This typically happens because candidates who were allotted in earlier rounds did not join (their seats are now vacant), new vacancies have been identified, or errors in the previous list have been corrected. Always check the latest (revised) list. If you were on an earlier version but not on this revised list, your allotment has been cancelled.
Can my allotment be cancelled after I join the college?
Yes, if the college discovers during document verification that your documents are invalid, incomplete, or that you provided false information in your application (e.g., false category, false domicile), your allotment can be cancelled even after you have joined. This is why it is critical to ensure all your documents are valid and all information in your application is accurate.
Where can I find the allotment list and more information?
The allotment list is available on the DME website: cgdme.in. Download the PDF and search for your NEET roll number. For any queries, contact the DME or your allotted college directly. Do not rely on unofficial sources or social media for information — always check the official DME website.
If your name appears on the revised Round 3 allotment list, act immediately. Download the list from cgdme.in, confirm your allotted college and course, gather all original documents, and contact your college to confirm the joining deadline and reporting details. Report to the college on time with all documents to complete the joining process. If your name is not on the list, watch the DME website for announcements about spot counselling or further rounds. Do not delay — the joining deadline is strict, and missing it will result in forfeiture of your seat.
