On 26 August 2026, the Maharashtra State Common Entrance Test (CET) Cell published a document titled 'List of Not Qualified candidates of NEET-UG-2026'. This is not the NEET exam result — it is a state-level list, issued as part of Maharashtra's Centralised Admission Process (CAP) for MBBS and BDS seats, naming 234 candidates who have been marked 'Not Qualified' in this CET Cell process. Each entry gives the candidate's NEET All India Rank, NEET Roll Number, CET Cell online Form Number, name, gender, category and, where applicable, a specified reservation code. The notice itself is purely a list — it does not state the reason any individual candidate is marked 'Not Qualified', nor does it lay out a remedy or next step.
If your NEET Roll Number, CET Cell Form Number or name appears on this 234-name list dated 26 August 2026, the State CET Cell has marked you 'Not Qualified' in the current stage of Maharashtra's NEET UG counselling — check the list carefully and watch the official CET Cell website for any follow-up circular explaining reasons or a correction window.
What this notice actually is
The document is a five-page list from the Government of Maharashtra, State Common Entrance Test Cell, headed 'List of Not Qualified candidates of NEET-UG-2026 Dated 26/08/2026'. It lists candidates in serial order (Sr. No. 1 to 234) along with their NEET All India Rank, NEET Roll Number, CET Cell Online Form Number, full name, gender, category, NRI status (where applicable) and any specified reservation.
This kind of list is generated during Maharashtra's state CAP counselling for MBBS/BDS seats, when the CET Cell processes candidate registrations/applications and flags some as not meeting the qualifying requirement checked at that stage. The notice does not explain what that requirement was, so candidates cannot assume a single reason applies to everyone on the list.
The information given for each candidate
Every row in the list carries the same set of fields. Understanding these columns is the first step to checking whether you are affected.
- Sr. No. — serial number within this notice (1 to 234)
- NEET All India Rank — the candidate's rank in NEET UG 2026
- NEET Roll No — the roll number from the candidate's NEET UG 2026 admit card
- CetCell Online Form No — the application/registration number the candidate was allotted on the Maharashtra CET Cell counselling portal
- Name of the Candidate
- Gender
- Category — almost all entries in this list are marked 'OPEN'
- NRI — a column for NRI status (left blank for most entries here)
- Specified Reservation — filled in for a small number of candidates, showing codes such as 'D1', 'D3', 'HILLY AREA' and 'PWD'
| Sr.No. | NEET AIR | NEET Roll No | CetCell Form No | Name | Gender | Category | Specified Reservation |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | 1165219 | 3111112323 | 264000123 | ADITI NITIN WERULKAR | F | OPEN | - |
| 33 | 706141 | 3108107391 | 264010711 | SHRAVANI | F | OPEN | D1 |
| 41 | 1098571 | 3108105097 | 264013399 | SIRI RAJENDRA DABHADE | F | OPEN | HILLY AREA |
| 158 | 1156130 | 3103104012 | 264031725 | VIRSEN DINESH SARDAR | M | OPEN | PWD |
| 200 | 1163940 | 3117103174 | 264033786 | GAIKWAD DIVYA MAHESHKUMAR | F | OPEN | PWD |
How to check if you are on this list
Because the list runs to 234 names across five pages, the safest way to check is by matching your own NEET Roll Number and CET Cell Form Number — not just your name — against the entries, since spellings and name order can vary.
The list is organised by ascending NEET Roll Number within each page, so once you know your roll number you can scan the relevant page range rather than reading all 234 rows.
- Keep your NEET UG 2026 admit card handy for your exact Roll Number and All India Rank.
- Keep your Maharashtra CET Cell registration confirmation handy for your Form Number.
- Match both numbers, not just your name, before concluding you are or are not on the list.
- If either number matches an entry, treat this as applicable to you even if the name spelling looks slightly different.
What the 'Specified Reservation' codes mean on this list
Most of the 234 candidates are shown simply as category 'OPEN' with no specified reservation. A handful of entries carry an additional code in the 'Specified Reservation' column — these include 'D1', 'D3', 'HILLY AREA' and 'PWD' (Persons with Disability). The notice does not define these codes beyond printing them against the relevant candidate's row, so if one of these appears next to your entry, it is simply flagging that you had claimed or were recorded under that specific reservation category in your counselling registration — it is not, by itself, an explanation of why you were marked 'Not Qualified'.
What the notice does NOT tell you
This is important: the PDF is strictly a name list. It does not state why any candidate has been marked 'Not Qualified' — whether it relates to document verification, eligibility criteria, form discrepancies, or something else. It also does not mention any deadline, appeal process, grievance window, or contact details for correction.
Do not assume a reason on your own. If your details appear on this list, the responsible next step is to look for a separate, more detailed circular or notice from the State CET Cell that explains the criteria used, or to reach the CET Cell through its official counselling portal for clarification specific to your application.

See My CollegesFrequently asked questions
Is this my NEET UG 2026 exam result?
No. This list is unrelated to your national NEET UG exam result. It is a Maharashtra State CET Cell document generated during the state's own counselling (CAP) process for MBBS/BDS seats.
My name is on the list — does that mean I failed NEET?
No. Being on this 'Not Qualified' list only relates to your status in the Maharashtra state counselling process at this stage. It says nothing about your NEET UG exam performance.
Why was I marked 'Not Qualified'?
The notice does not give reasons for any individual candidate. It is only a name list. You will need to check for further CET Cell circulars or contact the Cell through its official portal for a reason specific to your case.
How do I confirm my name is really on this list and not a similarly named candidate?
Match your NEET Roll Number and CET Cell Online Form Number against the list, not just your name, since several candidates can share similar names.
What do the codes 'D1', 'D3', 'HILLY AREA' and 'PWD' mean in the Specified Reservation column?
These are reservation category flags recorded for a small number of candidates on this list, such as Persons with Disability (PWD) or candidates from notified hilly areas. The notice does not explain them further, and they do not by themselves explain the 'Not Qualified' status.
What should I do next if I am on this list?
Note your Sr. No., NEET Roll No and Form No. from the list, and check the official Maharashtra State CET Cell website for any further notice, corrigendum, or contact channel addressing this 'Not Qualified' list, since none is included in this document.
Does this affect my eligibility for All India Quota counselling by MCC?
This notice is issued by the Maharashtra State CET Cell for state-level counselling. It does not mention All India Quota counselling conducted by the Medical Counselling Committee (MCC), so treat the two processes as separate unless a further notice says otherwise.
Can I still apply for Maharashtra MBBS/BDS admission if I'm on this list?
The notice does not state this. It is only a list of names marked 'Not Qualified'; whether or how you can proceed is not addressed here, so you should seek clarification from the State CET Cell directly.
If you registered for Maharashtra's NEET UG 2026 counselling, take five minutes to check this list against your exact NEET Roll Number and CET Cell Form Number, not just your name. Since the notice gives no reasons or remedy, keep watching the official State CET Cell website for any follow-up circular, and reach out to the Cell's official helpdesk if your details appear here and you need clarification.
