MCC MDS 2026-27 Round 2: NRI Eligible Candidates List

The Medical Counselling Committee (MCC) under the Ministry of Health and Family Welfare has released the official list of eligible candidates for MDS (Master of Dental Surgery) postgraduate counselling Round 2 for the 2026-27 admission session. This list contains 11 candidates who have been provisionally converted from the Indian category to the NRI (Non-Resident Indian) category based on document scrutiny. If your roll number appears on this list, you are now eligible to participate in Round 2 counselling as an NRI candidate and can apply for NRI-reserved seats. However, there is a critical condition: you must produce the original documents that were submitted to MCC at the time of reporting after seat allotment, or your admission will be cancelled.

What is this list and why does it matter?

This is the official MCC list of candidates who have been provisionally reclassified from the Indian category to the NRI category for MDS counselling Round 2, 2026-27. The reclassification is based on document scrutiny — candidates submitted proof of NRI status (such as passport, visa, or residency documents) to MCC, and after verification, MCC has approved their conversion.

If your roll number appears on this list, you are now eligible to compete for NRI-reserved seats in MDS colleges during Round 2 counselling. NRI seats are separate from the general merit pool and often have different cutoff scores and college availability. Being on this list means you can now access these seats if you choose to participate in Round 2.

The 11 eligible NRI candidates for Round 2

MCC has provisionally converted 11 candidates to NRI status for MDS Round 2 counselling. The list below shows their roll numbers and names. Check this list carefully to see if your roll number is included.

What does 'provisionally converted' mean?

The word 'provisionally' is important. It means MCC has accepted your NRI status for the purpose of counselling and seat allotment in Round 2 — you can now apply for NRI seats. However, this approval is not final. It is conditional on you producing the same original documents at the time of reporting (when you physically report to the college after being allotted a seat).

In other words, MCC has verified your documents on paper, but the college will verify them again in person when you report. If the documents you bring to reporting do not match what you submitted to MCC, or if you cannot produce them, your admission will be cancelled — even after you have been allotted a seat.

Critical requirement: Original documents at reporting

This is the most important trap in this notice. If you are on this NRI list and you are allotted an NRI seat in Round 2, you MUST bring the original documents that prove your NRI status when you report to the college. The documents you submitted to MCC were scanned or photocopied; the college will now demand the originals.

Common NRI proof documents include: passport, visa, travel documents, residency certificate from the country where you reside, employment letter from abroad, or bank statements showing foreign residence. The exact documents depend on your specific NRI claim — check what you submitted to MCC and ensure you have the originals ready.

If you fail to produce these original documents at reporting, your admission will be cancelled immediately. You will lose your seat, and you will not be able to appeal or recover it. This is not a warning — it is a direct statement from MCC. Do not assume you can produce documents later or that the college will be lenient.

• You must bring ORIGINAL documents to reporting, not photocopies or scans.
• The documents must be the same ones you submitted to MCC for scrutiny.
• Failure to produce them will result in immediate cancellation of your admission.
• There is no grace period or appeal process mentioned for this cancellation.

What happens if you are on this list?

If your roll number is on this list, you are now eligible to participate in MDS Round 2 counselling as an NRI candidate. When the Round 2 counselling portal opens, you will be able to log in with your credentials and fill in your choice of colleges and seats. You will see NRI-reserved seats available in various MDS colleges across India.

Your rank and score will be compared only with other NRI candidates, not with general merit candidates. This means you are competing in a separate pool, which can sometimes result in lower cutoff scores and better chances of getting a seat, depending on the number of NRI applicants and available NRI seats.

After the counselling process is complete and seats are allotted, you will receive an allotment letter. You will then have to report to the allotted college on the specified date with all required documents, including the original NRI proof documents.

What if you are NOT on this list?

If your roll number does not appear on this NRI list, it means your NRI status has not been approved by MCC for Round 2 counselling. You will continue to be treated as an Indian candidate and will compete in the general merit pool or your applicable category (SC, ST, OBC, etc.).

If you believe you should be on this list because you submitted NRI documents to MCC and they were not processed, contact MCC immediately through the official counselling portal or helpline. Do not wait until Round 2 counselling begins — raise the issue now so it can be resolved.

How to verify your status and prepare for Round 2

First, check this list carefully. Match your roll number (the 10-digit number you received when you registered for NEET-PG) against the 11 roll numbers listed. If you find your roll number, you are on the NRI list.

Second, gather and organize all the original documents you submitted to MCC for NRI verification. These might include your passport, visa pages, travel tickets, residency proof, employment letters, or bank statements. Keep them in a safe place and do not lose them — you will need them at reporting.

Third, wait for the Round 2 counselling portal to open. MCC will announce the dates for Round 2 choice filling and seat allotment. When the portal opens, log in and fill in your choices. You will now see NRI seats available alongside general seats.

Fourth, after allotment, note the reporting date and college address. Plan your travel and ensure you have all documents ready. Arrive at the college on time with all originals.

Important dates and next steps

This notice does not specify the dates for Round 2 counselling choice filling, allotment, or reporting. MCC will announce these dates separately in a counselling schedule notice. Keep checking the official MCC website (mcc.nic.in) and the counselling portal for updates.

Do not wait passively. If you are on this NRI list, start preparing now: organize your documents, note your roll number, and stay alert for the Round 2 schedule announcement. The counselling process moves quickly, and missing a deadline can cost you a seat.

• Check this list now to confirm your roll number is included.
• Gather and safeguard all original NRI proof documents.
• Monitor the MCC website and counselling portal for Round 2 dates.
• When the portal opens, fill in your choices promptly.
• After allotment, report on time with all original documents.

Common mistakes that lead to admission cancellation

The most common mistake is not bringing original documents to reporting. Candidates assume that because MCC has already verified their documents, the college will not ask for originals. This is wrong. The college will demand originals, and if you cannot produce them, your admission is cancelled.

Another mistake is bringing photocopies or notarized copies instead of originals. The notice specifically says 'original documents' — not certified copies, not attested copies, not scans. Originals only.

A third mistake is losing or misplacing the documents between now and reporting. If you are allotted a seat 2–3 months from now, you must still have the originals. Store them safely, preferably in a folder or envelope that you keep in a secure place at home.

A fourth mistake is assuming that if you are on this list, your admission is guaranteed. It is not. The conversion is provisional. Your admission is final only after you report with original documents and the college accepts them.

• Do not assume the college will accept photocopies or scans.
• Do not lose or misplace your original documents.
• Do not delay in organizing your documents — do it now.
• Do not assume your admission is guaranteed just because you are on this list.
