Merit List Released: What You Need to Check Now

The merit list is live on the DME Madhya Pradesh portal and covers all candidates registered for the first counselling round. Your position in this list determines your eligibility to choose colleges and courses. The list includes your NEET PG roll number, rank, category, and domicile status—all critical for seat allocation.

You must verify three things immediately: your name spelling, your rank, and your category classification. Any error here can cascade through the entire counselling process. If you spot a discrepancy, you have only one day (22 October) to raise an objection through the portal.

How to Access Your Merit List on dme.mponline.gov.in

Log in to the official DME portal using your credentials, navigate to the MP NEET PG 2026 counselling section, and locate the Round 1 Merit List PDF under notifications.

If you find errors in the published seat vacancy list or believe your rank is incorrect, you have exactly one day to lodge a formal objection. The window closes at the end of 22 October; submissions after this date will not be accepted. This is not a grace period—plan to file any objection well before the deadline.

Objections must be filed through your registered candidate login on the MP Online portal. Attach supporting documents (such as category certificates or mark sheets) if your objection relates to eligibility or classification. The DME will review all objections on 23 October and publish the final vacancy list the same day.

Final Vacancy List and Choice Filling Timeline

After objections are disposed of on 23 October, the final vacancy list will be released. This list shows exactly how many seats are available in each college, course, and category for Round 1. Study this carefully before choice filling begins, as it directly affects your options.

Choice filling opens on 24 October and remains open until midnight on 27 October. During this window, you must log in, select your preferred colleges and courses in order of preference, and lock your choices. The system will not accept changes after 27 October midnight. Plan your preferences in advance—do not wait until the last day.

  • Final vacancy list: 23 October
  • Choice filling window: 24–27 October
  • Locking deadline: 27 October midnight
  • Allotment result: 29 October
  • Physical reporting: 30 October–10 November

Understanding MP State Quota and Your Eligibility

Madhya Pradesh reserves 50 percent of postgraduate medical seats for candidates domiciled in the state. This round covers government, private, and deemed medical colleges across MP. If you are an MP domicile candidate, you compete in a separate merit list and have access to these reserved seats, which are often more affordable than all-India quota seats.

Your domicile status is determined by your MBBS registration and residential proof. Verify that your category and domicile are correctly reflected in the merit list. Any error here will affect which seats you are eligible to choose.
