The Medical Counselling Committee (MCC) has released the final allotment result for the Special Stray Vacancy Round covering MBBS seats and Round 5 for BDS and BSc Nursing programmes. This is a critical moment for candidates who participated in this round—if your name appears in the allotment list, you must physically report to your assigned college by 5 PM on November 16, 2026. Missing this deadline has serious consequences, including loss of your security deposit and potential debarment from future NEET examinations. The allotment PDF is now live on the official MCC website, and you can search for your result using your NEET roll number.
Download your allotment result from mcc.nic.in immediately, confirm your seat details, and arrange all required documents to report to your college before the 5 PM deadline on November 16, 2026.

Unlock My College ListWhat seats were available in this Special Stray Round?
The MCC opened a total of 1,219 vacant seats across three medical and health science courses in this Special Stray Vacancy Round. MBBS had the largest share with 946 seats available, followed by BDS with 207 seats, and BSc Nursing with 66 seats. These were seats that remained unfilled after the earlier rounds of counselling and were offered to eligible candidates who registered fresh for this round.
This round was designed to fill genuine vacancies and give a final opportunity to candidates who either did not participate earlier or were not allotted in previous rounds. The availability of nearly 1,000 MBBS seats made this a significant opportunity, especially for candidates on the borderline of earlier cutoffs.
| Course | Vacant Seats |
|---|---|
| MBBS | 946 |
| BDS | 207 |
| BSc Nursing | 66 |
| Total | 1,219 |

The MCC announced the full schedule for this Special Stray Round on October 30, 2026. Fresh registration opened on November 2 and closed on November 4 at 3 PM. Candidates had to pay their counselling fee between 10 AM on November 2 and 6 PM on November 4. Choice filling—the process of selecting your preferred colleges and courses—ran from November 2 until 11 AM on November 5.
After candidates locked their choices by 11 AM on November 5, the MCC processed the seats on November 5 and 6. A provisional allotment list was released on November 5, giving candidates a chance to raise grievances until 11 AM on November 6. The final allotment result was then published on November 6, one day ahead of the originally scheduled date. Allotted candidates now have until 5 PM on November 16 to report to their assigned colleges.
- Fresh registration: November 2–4, 2026 (until 3 PM)
- Fee payment: November 2–4, 2026 (10 AM to 6 PM)
- Choice filling: November 2–5, 2026 (until 11 AM)

What documents must you carry when reporting to college?
When you report to your allotted college, you must bring both original documents and photocopies. The MCC requires the provisional allotment letter issued by MCC, your NEET UG 2026 admit card and scorecard, your Class 10 certificate as proof of date of birth, and both your Class 10 and Class 12 marksheets along with passing certificates. You will also need eight passport-size photographs that match the photograph on your NEET application form.
Bring a valid government-issued photo ID such as your Aadhaar card or PAN card. If you were allotted a reserved seat (under SC, ST, OBC, or PwD category), carry your category certificate or PwD certificate as well. Before you travel to the college, check the college's official website, as many institutions ask for additional documents such as fee drafts, conduct certificates, or medical fitness certificates. This advance check will save you from making a wasted trip.
- MCC provisional allotment letter
- NEET UG 2026 admit card and scorecard
- Class 10 certificate (proof of date of birth)
- Class 10 and Class 12 marksheets and passing certificates
- Eight passport-size photographs matching your NEET application
- Valid government photo ID (Aadhaar, PAN, or passport)
- Category or PwD certificate (if applicable)
- Any additional documents requested by your allotted college
What happens if you do not report by the deadline?
The Special Stray Vacancy Round has no exit or resignation option once you are allotted. If you are allotted a seat but do not report to the college by 5 PM on November 16, 2026, you will forfeit your security deposit—the fee you paid during registration. This is a financial loss that cannot be recovered.
Beyond the financial penalty, MCC rules allow for debarment from the next NEET UG examination. This means you could be barred from appearing in NEET UG 2027 or the next cycle, which is a serious consequence that affects your entire medical education timeline. Therefore, if you have been allotted a seat in this round, reporting on time is not optional—it is mandatory to protect both your financial investment and your eligibility for future attempts.
- Loss of security deposit (non-refundable)
- Potential debarment from the next NEET UG examination
- Forfeiture of the allotted seat
- No option to resign or exit after allotment

Is this the final round for MBBS, BDS, and BSc Nursing?
For MBBS, this Special Stray Vacancy Round is the final MCC round for the 2026 admission cycle. Any MBBS seats that remain unfilled after this round will not be carried forward to another MCC counselling round. This makes it the last opportunity for candidates to secure an MBBS seat through the national-level MCC process.
However, BDS and BSc Nursing still have one more round remaining. Round 6 registration for BDS and BSc Nursing will open on November 17, 2026, with the result scheduled for November 20, 2026. If you were allotted BDS or BSc Nursing in this round but are considering waiting for the next round, remember that there is no guarantee of a better seat, and you risk losing your current allotment.
- MBBS: This is the final MCC round for 2026
- BDS and BSc Nursing: One more round (Round 6) remains
- BDS/BSc Nursing Round 6 registration opens November 17, 2026
- BDS/BSc Nursing Round 6 result scheduled for November 20, 2026
Who was eligible to participate in this Special Stray Round?
Candidates who had already secured and joined an All India Quota seat or a state quota seat in earlier rounds were not eligible for this Special Stray Round. If you had already reported to a college in a previous round, your earlier choices were treated as void, and you could only participate if you registered fresh and filled new choices for this round.
This rule ensures that seats are not double-occupied and that candidates do not hold multiple allotments simultaneously. If you participated in this round after joining an earlier seat, your participation would have been invalid, and your earlier seat would have been cancelled. Always clarify your eligibility status with the MCC before registering for any subsequent round.
- Candidates who already joined an All India Quota seat were ineligible
- Candidates who already joined a state quota seat were ineligible
- Earlier choices were treated as void if you registered fresh for this round
- Only fresh choices filled in this round were considered for allotment
