The Jharkhand Combined Entrance Competitive Examination Board (JCECEB) has announced the first round of seat allotment for NEET UG 2026 counselling, covering MBBS, BDS and BHMS programmes across state quota seats. Candidates who have received an allotment must now move quickly to complete document verification and formally report to their assigned college. Missing the September 5 deadline will result in loss of the allotted seat, which will then be offered in the second round of counselling. This is a critical window for all allotted aspirants in Jharkhand.
Download your allotment letter from neetug.jceceb.co.in and report to your assigned college with original documents by September 5, 2026, or your seat will be forfeited.
When and Where to Download Your Allotment Letter
The allotment letters became available on August 27, 2026, and will remain downloadable until September 5. You can access your letter through the official JCECEB portal at neetug.jceceb.co.in by logging in with your application number and password. Once you log in, navigate to the Allotment or Admission section on your dashboard and download the provisional allotment letter as a PDF. Print a clear copy immediately—you will need this at the college during document verification.
Five Jharkhand Medical Colleges Participating in Round 1
Five institutions are offering seats in this round of counselling. Your allotment letter will specify which college you have been assigned to. All five colleges are conducting document verification and admission between August 28 and September 5.
- Netaji Subhas Medical College, Adityapur
- Laxmi Chandravansi Medical College, Bishrampur
- Sido Kanhu Medical College, Dumka
- Birsa Institute of Medical Sciences, Khunti
- Manipal TATA Medical College, Jamshedpur
Documents You Must Carry for College Reporting
Colleges will verify your documents during the reporting window. You must bring both original documents and self-attested photocopies of each. If any required document is missing, the college may cancel your admission. Prepare a dedicated folder with all items well in advance so you do not miss the deadline due to incomplete paperwork.
- NEET UG 2026 admit card and scorecard
- Class 10 mark sheet and certificate
- Class 12 mark sheet and certificate
- Jharkhand domicile certificate
- Category certificate (if applicable)
- Provisional allotment letter from JCECEB
- Government-issued photo identity proof
- Recent passport-size photographs
Step-by-Step Process for Document Verification and Admission
The admission process at your assigned college follows a structured sequence. Arrive during the August 28 to September 5 window with all documents ready. First, submit your allotment letter at the admission desk. The college team will then verify your original documents against the photocopies. After verification, you will be required to pay the admission fee according to the college's fee schedule. Finally, collect your admission confirmation slip before leaving the campus. This slip is proof that you have successfully secured your seat.
Why the September 5 Deadline Is Non-Negotiable
September 5, 2026, is the hard cutoff for Round 1 reporting. Any candidate who does not report by this date will lose their allotted seat. The seat will not be held and will instead be added to the vacancy pool for Round 2 counselling. There are no extensions or exceptions to this deadline. If you have been allotted a seat, treat this date as absolute and plan your college visit accordingly.
What Happens After Round 1 Reporting Closes
Once the September 5 deadline passes, JCECEB will prepare the Round 2 counselling schedule and vacancy list. Candidates who did not secure a seat in Round 1, or who wish to upgrade their college or course, will be eligible to register for Round 2. Watch the official JCECEB portal for announcements about Round 2 registration dates and the updated list of available seats.
