The Admission Committee for Professional Undergraduate Medical Educational Courses (ACPUGMEC), Government of Gujarat, has announced the Round 2 counselling schedule for NEET UG 2026. This round opens registration on August 31, 2026 and covers 85 percent of state quota seats across MBBS, BDS, BAMS and BHMS programmes. If you did not secure a seat in Round 1 or are seeking an upgrade, Round 2 is your next major opportunity to register for a medical or dental course in Gujarat. Understanding the timeline, fees and document requirements now will help you avoid last-minute confusion.
Round 2 registration for Gujarat NEET UG counselling runs from August 31 to September 4, 2026, with an online PIN purchase fee of Rs 11,000 (Rs 1,000 non-refundable + Rs 10,000 refundable deposit).
When does Round 2 registration open and close?
Online PIN purchase and registration both begin on August 31, 2026. The PIN purchase window closes on September 4, 2026 at 12:00 noon, while online registration closes the same day at 4:00 PM. Document verification and submission of photocopies at designated help centres runs from September 2 to September 5, 2026 at 12:00 PM.
The entire counselling window closes on September 8, 2026. After this date, ACPUGMEC will announce the seat matrix, choice-filling window and provisional allotment date on the official portal medadmgujarat.org. Candidates must stay alert to these announcements to avoid missing subsequent deadlines.

| Online PIN purchase | August 31, 2026 | September 4, 2026, 12:00 noon |
| Online registration | August 31, 2026 | September 4, 2026, 4:00 PM |

What courses and seats are available in Round 2?
Round 2 covers four medical and allied health courses: MBBS, BDS (Bachelor of Dental Surgery), BAMS (Bachelor of Ayurvedic Medicine and Surgery) and BHMS (Bachelor of Homeopathic Medicine and Surgery). All seats offered are part of the 85 percent Gujarat state quota, meaning they are reserved for candidates who are domiciled in or have studied in Gujarat.
This is distinct from the 15 percent all-India quota seats, which are typically filled through separate counselling conducted by the Medical Counselling Committee (MCC). If you are a Gujarat resident or meet the state eligibility criteria, Round 2 is your pathway to these state quota seats.
How much does the online PIN cost and what does it include?
The online PIN required to register costs Rs 11,000 in total. This comprises two parts: a non-refundable registration fee of Rs 1,000 and a refundable security deposit of Rs 10,000. The registration fee is retained by ACPUGMEC regardless of whether you are allotted a seat, while the security deposit is returned to you after the counselling process concludes.
- Non-refundable registration fee: Rs 1,000
- Refundable security deposit: Rs 10,000
- Total PIN cost: Rs 11,000
- Payment modes accepted: net banking, debit card, credit card, UPI
What documents do I need to bring to the help centre?
Document verification is a critical step in the counselling process. You must carry original documents and photocopies to the assigned help centre during the verification window (September 2–5, 2026). ACPUGMEC will verify your eligibility and authenticity of credentials before you are considered for seat allotment.
- NEET UG 2026 admit card and scorecard
- Class 10 and Class 12 marksheets from a Gujarat board school
- Category certificate (SC/ST/OBC) and non-creamy layer certificate, where applicable
- Physical fitness certificate in the prescribed format
- Proof of birth (birth certificate or equivalent)
- Proof of Indian citizenship
- Medical Board assessment slip (for PwD candidates only)
Who is eligible to apply in Round 2?
Round 2 is open to all candidates who qualified in NEET UG 2026 and are domiciled in or meet the eligibility criteria for Gujarat. There are three main categories of applicants:
First, candidates who did not receive a seat allocation in Round 1 can register fresh in Round 2. Second, candidates who were allotted a seat in Round 1 but did not report to the college can participate in Round 2 and seek a different college or course. Third, candidates seeking an upgrade from their Round 1 allotment may retain their earlier PIN and re-file their choice preferences without purchasing a new PIN.
Round 2 is considered the last major window for fresh state quota registration in Gujarat. Subsequent mop-up and stray vacancy rounds typically admit only candidates who have already registered in an earlier round, making Round 2 critical for those still seeking admission.
How do I register for Round 2 counselling?
Registration is entirely online and must be completed on the official portal medadmgujarat.org. The process involves purchasing a PIN first, then using it to log in and complete your application. ACPUGMEC advises using a stable, high-speed internet connection throughout to avoid interruptions or data loss.
- Visit medadmgujarat.org and locate the Round 2 online registration link
- Purchase the online PIN using net banking, debit card, credit card or UPI
- Log in with your PIN and NEET UG 2026 credentials (roll number and password)
- Fill in personal details, academic qualifications, category information and contact details
- Upload scanned copies of required documents in the prescribed format and file size
- Review all information carefully before submitting the form
- Save and download the confirmation slip for your records
What should I do after registration?
After completing online registration, your next step is document verification. Visit the designated help centre on or before September 5, 2026 at 12:00 PM with all original documents and photocopies. The help centre staff will verify your credentials and confirm your eligibility.
Once verification is complete, ACPUGMEC will announce the choice-filling window and seat matrix. During choice filling, you will rank colleges and courses in order of preference. After all candidates have submitted their choices, ACPUGMEC will generate a provisional allotment based on merit, preferences and seat availability. You must then report to your allotted college within the specified timeframe to confirm your admission.
