The Jharkhand Combined Entrance Competitive Examination Board (JCECEB) has opened a correction window for candidates who find errors in the Provisional State Merit List for NEET PG 2026, published on 27 October 2026. This merit list is used to conduct the 1st round of online counselling for admission to postgraduate medical courses (MD, MS, PG Diploma) under the state quota in Jharkhand. If your name, rank, score, category, or any other detail is wrong in the published list, you must submit a correction request immediately — the deadline is 28 October 2026 at 5:00 PM. Missing this window means you cannot challenge errors later, and an incorrect merit list entry could affect your counselling allotment.
If you find any error in the Jharkhand NEET PG 2026 provisional merit list published on 27 October, submit a correction request with supporting documents to controller.jceceb@gmail.com by 28 October 5:00 PM — this is your only chance.

This is a correction notice issued by JCECEB, the authority that conducts NEET PG counselling in Jharkhand. On 27 October 2026, the Board published a Provisional State Merit List based on your NEET PG 2026 exam scores. This list ranks all candidates who have applied for postgraduate medical seats in Jharkhand under the state quota.
The notice informs you that if you spot any mistake in this merit list — whether in your name, roll number, NEET score, rank, category, or any other detail — you have a very short window to report it and request a correction. The Board will then review your objection and supporting documents and make corrections as per the rules laid out in the original merit list advertisement (Advertisement No. JCECEB/65/26-103 dated 16 October 2026).
This is a critical step. Your position in the merit list directly determines which seats you are offered in the 1st round of counselling. An error that goes uncorrected now could mean you are offered a seat you are not eligible for, or you miss a seat you should have received.
Who should submit a correction request?
You should submit a correction request if you have applied for NEET PG 2026 counselling in Jharkhand under the state quota AND you find any discrepancy or error in the Provisional State Merit List published on 27 October 2026.
Common errors that candidates report include: wrong name spelling, incorrect date of birth, wrong NEET score or rank, incorrect category classification (General, OBC, SC, ST, EWS), wrong subcategory (if applicable), missing or incorrect PWD (Person with Disability) status, or any other personal or academic detail that affects your eligibility or ranking.
- Your name is misspelled or incomplete
- Your NEET score or rank is shown incorrectly
- Your category (General, OBC, SC, ST, EWS) is wrong
- Your subcategory or PWD status is missing or incorrect
- Your date of birth or roll number is wrong
- Any other detail that affects your merit position or eligibility
Critical deadline: 28 October 2026, 5:00 PM
The correction window is open for only ONE day. You must submit your objection and supporting documents by 28 October 2026 at 5:00 PM (17:00 hours). After 5:00 PM on 28 October, the Board will not accept any further correction requests.

This is a hard deadline. Email submissions received after 5:00 PM will not be considered. If you are unsure whether your merit list entry is correct, do not wait — submit a correction request now. It is better to submit and have your entry confirmed as correct than to miss the deadline and discover an error later that cannot be fixed.
Once the correction window closes, the merit list becomes final and is used to conduct the 1st round of online counselling. Any errors that remain will carry forward into the counselling process.
How to submit a correction request
You must submit your correction request by email only. There is no online portal, no offline submission, and no other method accepted. Send your email to: controller.jceceb@gmail.com
Your email must include: (1) a clear statement of what error you have found in the merit list, (2) your NEET PG roll number and name, (3) a copy of the relevant page of the published merit list showing the error, and (4) supporting documents that prove the correct information (e.g., your NEET admit card, NEET result screenshot, MBBS degree certificate, caste certificate, PWD certificate, or any other document that establishes the correct detail).
Keep your email subject line clear and simple, for example: 'Correction Request — NEET PG 2026 Merit List — [Your Name] — [Your Roll Number]'. This helps the Board quickly identify and process your request.
- Email address: controller.jceceb@gmail.com
- Subject: Clearly state it is a correction request and include your name and roll number
- Body: Describe the error in detail
- Attachments: Copy of the merit list page showing the error + all supporting documents (NEET admit card, result, degree certificate, caste certificate, PWD certificate, etc.)
What documents should you attach?
The notice does not specify exactly which documents are required for each type of error, but the rule is: attach any document that proves the correct information. The Board will review your objection and the documents you provide and decide whether to grant the correction.
For a score or rank error, attach your NEET PG result screenshot or admit card. For a name or date of birth error, attach your NEET admit card, MBBS degree certificate, or any official government ID. For a category error, attach your caste certificate (SC/ST/OBC), EWS certificate, or PWD certificate issued by the competent authority. For any other error, attach the relevant official document that supports your claim.
- NEET PG admit card (for score, rank, name, DOB errors)
- NEET PG result screenshot or official result document
- MBBS degree certificate or provisional certificate
- Caste certificate (SC/ST/OBC) issued by competent authority
- EWS certificate (if applicable)
- PWD certificate (if applicable)
- Any other official document that proves the correct information
What happens after you submit a correction request?
After the correction window closes on 28 October at 5:00 PM, the Board will review all objections and supporting documents received. The Board will then decide which corrections are valid and make the necessary changes to the merit list.
Every kind of PG seat, one rank
See the real seats your NEET-PG rank can reach.
The Board will publish a corrected merit list after reviewing all objections. The exact date of publication is not stated in this notice, but it will be before the 1st round of online counselling begins. You should check the JCECEB website (https://jceceb.jharkhand.gov.in) regularly for updates.
If your correction is approved, your entry in the merit list will be updated, and your rank may change. If your correction is rejected, your entry will remain as published. The Board will not send individual notifications — you must check the corrected merit list when it is published.
Important rules for correction requests
The Board will process corrections according to Clause 3 of Advertisement No. JCECEB/65/26-103 dated 16 October 2026. This means the Board has specific rules about what types of corrections are allowed and what evidence is required. You should review that advertisement if you have access to it, to understand the exact criteria.
Do not submit frivolous or false correction requests. The Board may reject requests that are not supported by credible evidence. If you submit false information or documents, you may face penalties or disqualification from counselling.
Submit only ONE correction request per error. If you have multiple errors, you can list them all in one email, but do not send multiple emails for the same issue — this may cause confusion and delay processing.
Why this matters for your counselling
Your position in the merit list determines the order in which you are offered seats in the 1st round of counselling. If your rank is wrong, you may be offered a seat that is not appropriate for your actual score, or you may miss a seat you should have received. If your category is wrong, you may be placed in the wrong quota (state quota vs. other quotas) or the wrong category (General vs. OBC vs. SC/ST), which affects which seats are available to you.
Correcting errors now ensures that the 1st round of counselling is fair and accurate. It also protects you from being allotted a seat based on incorrect information, which could lead to complications later (e.g., your seat being cancelled if the error is discovered after allotment).
The 1st round of counselling will begin soon after the corrected merit list is published. Once counselling starts, you will not be able to change your merit list entry — so this is your only opportunity to fix errors.
