Atal Medical and Research University (AMRU), the official NEET-UG counselling authority for Himachal Pradesh, has published the provisional merit list for the 1st round of MBBS and BDS counselling for the 2026-27 admission session. This list shows which candidates have been selected and ranked for seat allocation in the first counselling round. Every candidate who appeared for NEET UG 2026 and applied for Himachal Pradesh counselling must check this list to confirm their eligibility, rank, and category status. The list is now live on the official AMRU website and candidates should verify their details immediately.
The provisional merit list for MBBS/BDS 1st round counselling 2026 is now published — check your rank and category status on amruhp.ac.in immediately.
What is this merit list?
This is the provisional merit list for the 1st round of MBBS and BDS counselling under NEET UG 2026 in Himachal Pradesh. It contains the names, ranks, NEET scores, and category details of all candidates who have qualified for seat allocation in this round. The list is 'provisional' — meaning it may be updated if errors are found or if candidates file objections.
The merit list determines the order in which candidates will be offered seats during the 1st round of counselling. Your position on this list directly affects which college and course (MBBS or BDS) you are eligible to choose. Candidates ranked higher get first choice of available seats.
Who appears on this merit list?
All candidates who appeared for NEET UG 2026, scored above the qualifying cutoff, and submitted a valid application for Himachal Pradesh counselling are included in this merit list. The list covers both MBBS and BDS courses and includes candidates from all eligible categories (General, OBC, SC, ST, and other reserved categories as per state norms).
If your name does not appear on the list, it means either you did not meet the minimum qualifying score, your application was rejected due to missing or invalid documents, or you did not apply for Himachal Pradesh counselling. Check your application status on the AMRU portal to understand why.
How to check your name and rank
Visit the official AMRU website at amruhp.ac.in and download the provisional merit list PDF. The list is organized by category and rank. Search for your name using your NEET roll number or application number to find your exact rank and category status.
The merit list shows your NEET score, category, and the round in which you are eligible to participate. Verify that all your details — name, category, score — are correct. If you find any error, note it immediately and prepare to file an objection if the AMRU portal allows it.

- Search for your name using your NEET roll number or application number

What does 'provisional' mean?
A provisional merit list is not final. It is published first so candidates can check their details and raise objections if they find errors. AMRU may update the list after reviewing objections, correcting clerical mistakes, or processing late applications if allowed.
Do not assume your rank is locked in. If you spot an error in your name, score, category, or eligibility status, file an objection immediately through the AMRU portal during the objection window (if one is announced). After the objection period closes, the list becomes final and is used for seat allocation.
What to do if your name is missing
If you applied for Himachal Pradesh counselling but your name does not appear on the merit list, first check that you searched correctly using your NEET roll number. If you still cannot find yourself, log into your AMRU counselling account and check your application status.
Common reasons for missing names include: application rejected due to incomplete or invalid documents, NEET score below the qualifying cutoff, application not submitted before the deadline, or a technical error. Contact the AMRU helpline or visit the official website for clarification. If it is a technical error, you may be able to file a grievance.
- Check your AMRU counselling account for application status
- Verify you searched using the correct NEET roll number
- Review the qualifying cutoff for your category
- Contact AMRU helpline if you believe there is an error
- File a grievance if your application was rejected unfairly
What to do if you find an error in your details
If the merit list shows your name but with incorrect details — wrong category, wrong score, wrong name spelling, or wrong course eligibility — do not ignore it. Errors at this stage can lead to wrong seat allocation or rejection during document verification.
Check the AMRU website for an objection or grievance window. Most counselling authorities allow candidates to file objections within a specified period (usually 2–5 days after the merit list is published). Submit your objection with supporting documents (your NEET admit card, category certificate, or other proof) through the online portal. Keep a copy of your objection receipt.
- Note the exact error (category, score, name, course)
- Gather supporting documents (NEET admit card, category certificate, etc.)
- File an objection through the AMRU portal within the deadline
- Save your objection receipt and reference number
- Follow up if AMRU does not respond within the stated timeframe
What happens after the merit list is finalized?
After the objection period closes, AMRU will publish the final merit list incorporating any corrections. This final list is then used to conduct the 1st round of seat allocation. Candidates are called for counselling in order of their rank, and they choose their preferred college and course based on availability.
The 1st round is typically followed by 2nd and 3rd rounds (if seats remain unfilled) and a mop-up round. Your rank on this 1st round merit list determines your priority in all subsequent rounds as well. Keep checking the AMRU website for announcements about counselling dates, document verification, and seat allotment.
Important: Do not miss the next steps
Publishing the merit list is just the first step. AMRU will soon announce the dates for document verification, choice filling (selecting your preferred college and course), and seat allotment. Missing any of these deadlines can result in forfeiture of your seat.

What if my name is not on the merit list?
If your name is missing, first verify you searched correctly using your NEET roll number. Then log into your AMRU counselling account to check your application status. Common reasons include a score below the qualifying cutoff, incomplete documents, or a missed application deadline. Contact AMRU helpline for clarification.
Can I file an objection if I find an error in my details?
Yes. If the merit list shows incorrect information — wrong category, wrong score, or wrong name — check the AMRU website for an objection window (usually open for 2–5 days after the list is published). File your objection online with supporting documents and save your receipt.
Is this merit list final or can it change?
This is a provisional merit list, meaning it may be updated after objections are reviewed and errors are corrected. After the objection period closes, AMRU will publish the final merit list, which is then used for seat allocation.
What does my rank on this list mean for seat allocation?
Your rank determines the order in which you will be offered seats during the 1st round of counselling. Candidates ranked higher get first choice of available colleges and courses. Your rank also carries forward to subsequent rounds if seats remain unfilled.
When will the next step (choice filling or seat allotment) happen?
AMRU will announce the dates for document verification, choice filling, and seat allotment separately. Check the AMRU website regularly for these announcements. Do not miss any deadline, as missing a step can result in forfeiture of your seat.
What documents should I prepare for the next stage?
Have your original NEET admit card, category certificate (if applicable), domicile certificate, and any other documents mentioned in the counselling prospectus ready for verification. You will need these during document verification and choice filling.
Can I appeal if I disagree with my category or eligibility status on the merit list?
Yes, you can file an objection or grievance through the AMRU portal if you believe your category or eligibility status is wrong. Submit supporting documents (such as your category certificate or domicile proof) with your objection and keep the receipt.
What if I am ranked very low — do I still have a chance of getting a seat?
Yes. Even if your rank is low in the 1st round, you may get a seat in the 2nd or 3rd round if seats remain unfilled. Additionally, if higher-ranked candidates do not report or forfeit their seats, lower-ranked candidates move up. Keep checking for updates on all rounds.
Check the provisional merit list immediately on amruhp.ac.in using your NEET roll number. Verify all your details — name, score, category, and course eligibility. If you find any error, file an objection during the window announced by AMRU. Keep the website bookmarked and watch for announcements about document verification, choice filling, and seat allotment dates. Do not miss any deadline.
