The Admission Committee for Professional Post-Graduate Medical Educational Courses (ACPPGMEC) has released the provisional merit list for Gujarat NEET-PG 2026 counselling on October 22, 2026. The list covers MD, MS, and Diploma seats across all reservation categories—General, SC, ST, SEBC, EWS, and In-Service. If you are an MBBS graduate applying for PG seats in Gujarat, you must now verify your rank and personal details on the official portal. A critical correction window remains open until October 24, 2026, at noon, after which the final list will be published and choice filling will begin.
Check your rank on medadmgujarat.org immediately and submit any correction requests with original documents at your assigned Help Centre before October 24, 2026, at 12:00 PM.

ACPPGMEC published the provisional merit list on October 22, 2026, at 3:50 PM on medadmgujarat.org. This list is the first official ranking of all candidates who completed document verification between October 3 and 9, 2026. Only those whose documents were verified during that window appear on the current list. If your name is missing, contact the committee immediately—it may indicate a verification issue that needs urgent clarification.
The merit list is divided by reservation category: General, SC, ST, SEBC, EWS, and In-Service candidates each have separate lists. A separate 'Not Eligible Candidate List' has also been published. Verification for PwD (Persons with Disabilities) and NRI quota candidates is still ongoing, so those lists will follow later. Your rank determines your position in the queue for seat allotment in Round 1.
How to Check Your Rank and Verify Your Details
Visit medadmgujarat.org and locate the 'Provisional Merit List 2026' link on the homepage. Select the PDF file corresponding to your reservation category. Once the file opens, search for your name and registered rank. Download and save a copy for your records—you will need it for the next steps.
Carefully verify four key details: your name, rank, assigned category, and personal information (contact details, MBBS college, etc.). Even small errors—a misspelled name, wrong category code, or incorrect contact number—can cause problems during choice filling and seat allotment. If everything matches your application, you are ready for the next phase. If you spot any discrepancy, do not wait; proceed immediately to the correction process.
Correction Window: October 24 Noon Deadline & Required Documents
If you find any error on the merit list, you have until October 24, 2026, at 12:00 PM to request a correction. You must visit your assigned Help Centre in person with a completed correction form. ACPPGMEC has made it clear that only original documents are accepted—DigiLocker files and plain photocopies will be rejected. You must also bring one self-attested photocopy set of all relevant documents.

Common corrections include wrong category assignment, spelling errors in your name, incorrect MBBS aggregate percentage, or missing qualification details. The committee will cross-check your submitted documents against your original academic credentials to verify the correction. If you submit false information, your candidature will be cancelled. After the noon deadline on October 24, no further corrections will be entertained, so plan your visit to the Help Centre well in advance.
- Carry original documents (MBBS degree, mark sheets, caste certificate if applicable, disability certificate if PwD)
- Bring one self-attested photocopy set of all documents
- Fill the correction form completely and legibly
- Visit your assigned Help Centre before October 24, 2026, 12:00 PM
- DigiLocker files and plain photocopies will NOT be accepted
Understanding Tie-Breaking Rules on the Merit List
If two or more candidates have the same NEET-PG score, ACPPGMEC uses a tie-breaking mechanism: the committee verifies the MBBS or FMGE (Foreign Medical Graduate Examination) aggregate percentage of each tied candidate. The candidate with the higher aggregate percentage ranks higher. This verification is done against original academic credentials, so accuracy in your submitted documents is critical.
Candidates who provide false aggregate information will have their candidature cancelled immediately. The committee also enforces Rule 4(4), which bars any candidate already admitted to a PG course elsewhere from participating in this counselling until they complete their current course. If you are already pursuing a PG degree, you cannot hold two seats simultaneously.
Reservation Quotas and Special Categories Explained
In-Service doctors (those currently employed in government medical institutions) receive 10 per cent of Government quota seats. This In-Service quota is restricted to 10 specified clinical specialties: Pediatrics, TB and Chest, Obstetrics and Gynaecology, and seven others. If you are an In-Service candidate, your eligibility is limited to these branches. Persons with Disabilities (PwD) candidates receive 5 per cent of seats across all categories (General, SC, ST, SEBC, EWS). PwD applicants must have appeared before a Medical Board with their disability certificate during verification.
The merit list reflects these quotas separately. Your assigned category on the list determines which pool of seats you compete for during choice filling. If you are a PwD candidate and your verification is still pending, you will appear on a separate list once the Medical Board completes its assessment. EWS (Economically Weaker Section) candidates must have valid EWS certificates issued by the competent authority.
What Happens After October 24: Final List and Choice Filling
Once the correction deadline passes at noon on October 24, 2026, ACPPGMEC will compile and publish the final merit list. This final list will incorporate all approved corrections and will be the official ranking used for seat allotment. The committee will announce the dates for Round 1 mock choice filling and final choice filling on medadmgujarat.org. Mock choice filling is a practice round where you can explore seat options without committing; it helps you plan your actual choices.
Every kind of PG seat, one rank

During final choice filling, you will rank the available MD, MS, and Diploma seats in order of your preference. Your rank on the merit list and your choices determine which seat you are allotted. After all candidates have locked their choices, ACPPGMEC will run the allotment algorithm and publish seat allotment results on the portal. Candidates who are allotted seats must report to their assigned college within the specified deadline to complete admission formalities.
Registration Fee and PIN Purchase: What You Already Paid
To participate in Gujarat NEET-PG 2026 counselling, you were required to purchase an online PIN worth Rs 28,000 before October 8, 2026. This amount comprised two parts: a non-refundable registration fee of Rs 3,000 and a refundable security deposit of Rs 25,000. The security deposit is returned to you after the counselling process concludes, provided you do not withdraw or forfeit your seat. The registration fee is retained by ACPPGMEC as a processing charge.
The PIN purchase window closed on October 8, 2026, along with the online registration and document upload deadline. If you did not purchase the PIN by that date, you cannot participate in this round of counselling. You would need to wait for subsequent rounds (if announced) or apply in the next year's cycle. Candidates who purchased the PIN and completed document verification are now eligible to proceed with choice filling once the final merit list is published.
Document Verification Already Completed: Why It Matters Now
Document verification took place between October 3 and 9, 2026, at designated Help Centres across Gujarat. During this process, you were required to present original documents (MBBS degree, mark sheets, caste certificate, disability certificate, etc.) to verify your eligibility and qualifications. Only candidates whose documents were verified during this window appear on the current provisional merit list. If your name is missing, it indicates either a verification issue or a procedural error that must be resolved immediately.
ACPPGMEC updated its verification rules on October 1, 2026, to accept only original documents—no DigiLocker files or plain photocopies. This stricter policy is now in effect for the correction window as well. If you need to submit corrections, you must bring originals again. The verification process ensures that all candidates on the merit list meet the academic and eligibility criteria for PG admission in Gujarat.
