Atal Medical & Research University (AMRU), Himachal Pradesh has released the final seat allocation list for the 2nd round of MBBS/BDS counselling based on NEET UG 2026. The list contains 360 allocated seats across government and private medical and dental colleges in Himachal Pradesh. All candidates who have received a seat allocation must report to their allotted institute on or before 18 September 2026. This is a critical deadline—failure to report will result in forfeiture of your seat. Additionally, if you have claimed any reserved category (SC, ST, OBC, EWS, etc.), your admission is conditional on verification of your category certificates by the college's Admission Committee.
Report to your allotted college by 18 September 2026 with all valid, updated category certificates in the prescribed format, or your seat will be cancelled.
What is this final seat allocation list?
This is the official final seat allocation list released by AMRU for the 2nd round of NEET UG 2026 counselling for MBBS and BDS courses in Himachal Pradesh. The list is system-generated and contains 360 candidates allocated to seats across 15+ medical and dental colleges in the state, including government institutions like Indira Gandhi Medical College Shimla, Dr Rajendra Prasad Govt Medical College Tanda, Dr Yashwant Parmar Govt Medical College Nahan, and private colleges like Maharishi Markandeshwar Medical College and Bhojia Dental College.
Each entry in the list shows your merit number, application number, name, the institute you have been allotted to, the quota you applied under (HP Quota, NRI Quota, Management Quota), the category you applied under (General, SC, ST, OBC, EWS, etc.), and the quota and category you have been finally allotted. This is not a provisional list—it is final, and you must now take action to secure your admission.
Important dates and deadlines
The most critical date is **18 September 2026**. You must report to your allotted college on or before this date. Reporting means physically visiting the college with all required documents and completing the admission formalities. If you do not report by this deadline, your seat allocation will be cancelled and you will lose your seat, even if you have been allotted one.
The list was released on 16 September 2026, giving you only 2 days to arrange travel, gather documents, and report to your college. If your allotted college is far from your location, plan your travel immediately.
- Final Seat Allocation List released: 16 September 2026
- Last date to report to college: 18 September 2026 (on or before)
- Failure to report by this date will result in automatic cancellation of your seat
How to find your name in the allocation list
The allocation list is arranged by merit number (column 2). Search for your name or application number in the list. The list contains 360 rows of candidates. Once you locate your entry, note the following columns carefully:
Column 5 shows the **Institute Name** where you have been allotted. Column 6 shows the **Applied Quota** (the quota category you chose during counselling registration). Column 7 shows the **Applied Category** (your reserved category, if any). Column 8 shows the **Allotted Quota** (the quota you have finally been given). Column 9 shows the **Allotted Category** (your final category allocation).
In many cases, the applied and allotted categories match. However, in some cases they differ—for example, a candidate who applied under SC category may be allotted under General category if the SC seats were filled. This is normal and you must accept the allotted category.
- Search by your name or application number
- Note your allotted institute name
- Check your applied vs. allotted quota and category
- If allotted category differs from applied, you have been adjusted to the next available category
Category certificates: the critical trap
⚠️ **This is the most common reason seats are cancelled.** If you have claimed any reserved category (SC, ST, OBC, EWS, Widows/Wards of Ex-Servicemen, Children of J&K Migrants, Physically Handicapped, Defence Personnel, Single Girl Child, Backward Area, IRDP/BPL), your admission is **NOT automatic**. Your seat is provisional and conditional on verification of your category certificate by the Admission Committee of your allotted college.
The notice explicitly states: **'In case of any discrepancy, outdated/invalid certificate, or non-submission of the prescribed document, the candidate shall not be entitled to claim the benefit of the respective category/quota.'** This means if your certificate is not in the prescribed format, is outdated, or is missing, you will lose your category benefit and may lose your seat entirely.
Before you report to college, ensure that every certificate you submitted during counselling registration is **valid, updated, and in the exact format specified in the AMRU Prospectus**. If any certificate is not in the correct format or is outdated, get it re-issued or re-prepared immediately. Do not wait until you reach the college.
- Category certificates must be valid and in the prescribed format as per AMRU Prospectus
- Outdated or invalid certificates will result in loss of category benefit
- Non-submission of required documents will result in cancellation of category claim
- Verification is done by the Admission Committee at the college—not by AMRU
- Get all certificates updated or re-prepared BEFORE reporting to college
What documents and certificates do you need?
The notice does not list specific documents, but refers to the AMRU Prospectus for the prescribed format. However, based on standard NEET counselling practice, you will need to carry the following to your allotted college:

**Category certificates (if applicable):** SC/ST/OBC certificate issued by the competent authority in your state, EWS certificate (if applicable), Widows/Wards of Ex-Servicemen certificate, Children of J&K Migrants certificate, Physically Handicapped certificate, Defence Personnel certificate, or any other category certificate you claimed. All certificates must be in the format specified in the Prospectus and must not be outdated.

- HP Quota: for Himachal Pradesh residents
- NRI Quota: for Non-Resident Indian candidates
- Management Quota: at private colleges
- Categories: General, SC, ST, OBC, EWS, and special categories
- Category verification is mandatory for all reserved category candidates
What happens if your allotted category differs from your applied category?
In the allocation list, you will see two category columns: 'Applied Category' and 'Allotted Category.' In many cases, these are the same. However, in some cases they differ. For example, a candidate who applied under SC category may be allotted under General category.
This happens when the reserved seats for your applied category are filled and you are adjusted to the next available category based on your merit rank. This is a normal part of the counselling process and you must accept the allotted category. You cannot request a change.
If you are allotted under a different category than you applied, you still need to carry your original category certificate to the college for verification. The college will verify your eligibility for the category you applied under, and if valid, may adjust your category accordingly in their records.
- Applied category and allotted category may differ
- This occurs when reserved seats are filled
- You must accept the allotted category
- Carry your original category certificate for verification
- Do not request a change of category

This means that even though you have been allotted a seat, your admission is not guaranteed. The Admission Committee at your college will verify your eligibility, your category certificate, and all your documents. If any discrepancy is found, your admission can be cancelled or your category can be changed.
Therefore, ensure that all your documents are genuine, valid, and in the correct format. Any false or outdated document can result in rejection of your admission.
