The Admission Committee for Professional Undergraduate Medical Educational Courses (ACPUGMEC) has released the revised provisional merit list for Gujarat NEET UG Round 2 counselling on its official portal. The list covers MBBS and BDS seats under the state quota across all reserved and unreserved categories. Importantly, 50 additional MBBS seats have been added at Ananya College of Medicine and Research in Kalol, Gandhinagar, expanding the pool of available positions for this round. Candidates who appear on the revised list must now complete their choice-filling process and lock their preferences within a tight deadline.
Download your category-specific merit list from medadmgujarat.org and lock your college choices by September 11, 2026, at 11:00 AM—missing this deadline will exclude you from Round 2 seat allotment.
What the Revised Merit List Includes
The revised merit list published by ACPUGMEC covers all MBBS and BDS seats available under Gujarat's state quota for Round 2 counselling. The committee has prepared separate merit lists for each category: General, Scheduled Caste (SC), Scheduled Tribe (ST), Socially and Educationally Backward Class (SEBC), and Economically Weaker Section (EWS).
In addition to category-wise lists, the portal also hosts separate documents for Non-Resident Indian (NRI) candidates, candidates with disabilities (PWD) and their sub-categories, and local quota lists for the National Health Mission (NHL) and Surat Municipal Corporation (SMC). A dedicated list of ineligible candidates with stated reasons has also been uploaded, allowing aspirants to understand why they may not have been shortlisted.
50 New MBBS Seats: What Changed in Round 2
The National Medical Commission (NMC) has approved an increase in the MBBS intake capacity at Ananya College of Medicine and Research, Kalol, Gandhinagar, by 50 seats. These additional positions will be allocated during Round 2 once the college receives its formal Letter of Permission. This expansion directly benefits Round 2 candidates by increasing the total number of MBBS seats available for allotment.
Beyond the new seats, several other policy changes take effect from Round 2 onwards. First, only original documents will be accepted during document verification at Help Centres; photocopies and DigiLocker documents are no longer valid. Second, any vacant seats in reserved categories (SC, ST, SEBC, EWS) will be transferred to the unreserved (General) category. Third, any unfilled NRI quota seats will be converted to Management quota seats, with the applicable Management quota fee structure applied.
Critical Dates: Choice Locking and Reporting Timeline
The choice-filling window for Round 2 opened on September 7, 2026, and candidates have until September 11, 2026, at 11:00 AM to lock their final preferences. After locking, candidates can view their filled choices until 12:00 Noon on the same day. This compressed timeline means aspirants must act quickly once they verify their position on the merit list.
Following choice locking, the next critical dates are: online tuition fee payment from September 11 to 15, 2026 (by 3:30 PM), and physical reporting at designated Help Centres until September 16, 2026 (by 4:00 PM). Classes are scheduled to commence on September 15, 2026, so candidates must complete fee payment and document verification well before this date to avoid missing the start of their course.

Document Verification: Original Documents Only
A significant change in Round 2 is the strict requirement for original documents during verification at Help Centres. Candidates can no longer submit photocopies or documents accessed through DigiLocker; only original certificates, mark sheets, and identity proofs will be accepted. This means you must gather and organize all required original documents before your Help Centre appointment.
Prepare originals of your NEET admit card, 10th and 12th mark sheets, caste certificate (if applicable), income certificate (for EWS category), PWD certificate (if applicable), and any other documents specified by ACPUGMEC. Bring these along with a valid photo ID when you report at the Help Centre. Failure to produce originals may result in rejection of your candidacy or delay in seat confirmation.
Reserved Category Seats and Quota Conversions
In Round 2, if seats reserved for SC, ST, SEBC, or EWS categories remain unfilled after the allotment process, those vacant positions will be transferred to the unreserved (General) category. This means General category candidates may have access to additional seats that were originally reserved. Conversely, if you belong to a reserved category and do not secure a seat in Round 2, you will not be able to claim a seat from the transferred pool in this round.
For NRI quota seats, any positions that remain vacant will be converted to Management quota seats with the corresponding Management quota fee structure. This conversion affects both the eligibility criteria and the fee payable. Candidates interested in Management quota seats should be aware of the higher fee structure and ensure they meet the eligibility requirements before locking such choices.
What Happens After Choice Locking
Once you lock your choices on September 11, 2026, the ACPUGMEC system will process the allotment based on your preferences, merit rank, and category. The seat allotment result is expected to be announced shortly after the choice-locking deadline. You will receive notification through the portal and should log in regularly to check your allotment status.
After allotment, you must pay the tuition fee online between September 11 and 15, 2026, by 3:30 PM. This fee payment confirms your acceptance of the allotted seat. Following fee payment, you must report physically at your designated Help Centre by September 16, 2026, at 4:00 PM for document verification and final seat confirmation. Classes begin on September 15, so ensure all formalities are completed before this date.
Why This Round Matters for NEET Aspirants
Round 2 is often the last opportunity for many candidates to secure an MBBS or BDS seat in their preferred state. The addition of 50 MBBS seats at Ananya College significantly increases the total number of positions available, making this round particularly important for candidates who narrowly missed out in Round 1 or who are now appearing on the revised merit list for the first time.
The policy changes—particularly the transfer of vacant reserved seats to the General category and the conversion of NRI seats to Management quota—create new pathways for different groups of candidates. General category aspirants may find additional opportunities, while those interested in Management quota seats now have clarity on availability and fees. Understanding these changes and acting decisively within the tight deadlines is crucial to securing admission.
