If you are targeting NEET-PG colleges in Ahmedabad, you are aiming at one of Gujarat's strongest medical-education hubs — anchored by the historic B.J. Medical College and backed by municipal, private and NBEMS-accredited DNB institutions. Now that the NEET-PG 2026 result has been declared by NBEMS (24 September 2026), the question shifts from 'what did I score?' to 'which MD, MS or DNB seat in Ahmedabad can my rank actually win?' This guide maps the Ahmedabad PG landscape — the colleges, the counselling routes, indicative fees and a smart choice-filling strategy — and shows you how to turn your rank into a precise, personalised college list.
The MedAdmit NEET-PG College Predictor takes your rank and category and returns a personalised list of MD/MS/DNB colleges and specialities — across MCC All India Quota AND every state — each tagged with round-wise closing ranks, annual fees, stipend, bond and an admit-probability. Built for decisions, not guesswork.
Which medical colleges in Ahmedabad offer NEET-PG MD/MS/DNB seats?
Ahmedabad's PG medical colleges fall into four broad buckets: the flagship government college, semi-government municipal colleges run by the Ahmedabad Municipal Corporation, private/trust colleges, and standalone NBEMS-accredited hospitals that run DNB seats. Together they give Ahmedabad one of the deepest MD/MS/DNB markets in western India, spanning clinical, para-clinical and diagnostic branches. The table below is an orientation map — for the exact seats and specialities open to your rank, run the predictor.
| College | Ownership / type | Counselling route | PG focus |
|---|---|---|---|
| B.J. Medical College (BJMC) | Government (Gujarat Govt), Gujarat University | AIQ (MCC) + state (ACPPGMEC) | Wide MD/MS across clinical, para-clinical & pre-clinical |
| Smt. NHL Municipal Medical College | Municipal / semi-government (AMC) | State (ACPPGMEC), select AIQ | MD/MS in major clinical & diagnostic branches |
| AMC MET Medical College | Municipal / semi-government (AMC) | State (ACPPGMEC) | Growing MD/MS programme |
| GCS Medical College | Private / trust (Gujarat Cancer Society) | State (ACPPGMEC) + management / NRI | MD/MS seats (state, management & NRI) |
| Dr. M.K. Shah Medical College & SMS Hospital | Private | State (ACPPGMEC) + management / NRI | MD/MS plus select DNB seats |
| NBEMS-accredited hospitals (Sterling & others) | Private hospital DNB seats | AIQ (MCC) for DNB | Broad-speciality DNB seats (clinical & diagnostic) |
- Government flagship: B.J. Medical College — the oldest and most sought-after PG destination in the city.
- Municipal / semi-government: Smt. NHL Municipal Medical College and AMC MET — strong clinical exposure, run by the AMC.
- Private / trust colleges: GCS Medical College and Dr. M.K. Shah Medical College — state, management and NRI seats.
- DNB route: NBEMS-accredited multi-speciality hospitals in and around Ahmedabad add broad-speciality DNB seats outside the college system.

Get My Ahmedabad College ListIs BJ Medical College still the top pick for NEET-PG in Ahmedabad?
For most aspirants, B.J. Medical College is the headline name among Ahmedabad PG medical colleges. It is a government institution affiliated with Gujarat University and recognised by the National Medical Commission, attached to the large Civil Hospital campus that drives very high patient volumes — a big draw for clinical training. Its PG seats are filled through both the 50% All India Quota (via MCC) and the 50% Gujarat state quota (via ACPPGMEC), so the rank you need depends heavily on the branch, your category and which quota you compete in. Popular clinical branches close far tighter than pre-clinical and para-clinical ones.
- Case load: attached to a high-volume tertiary Civil Hospital campus — strong hands-on exposure.
- Breadth: MD/MS options across clinical, diagnostic, para-clinical and pre-clinical branches.
- Two doors in: reachable through MCC All India Quota and Gujarat state quota (ACPPGMEC).
- Reality check: clinical branches such as Radiology, Dermatology, General Medicine and Surgery are the most competitive — verify branch-wise trends before you lock choices.
Will your rank clear BJ Medical College?
BJMC's popular branches move fast every round. Instead of guessing, check your rank against round-wise closing-rank trends for BJMC and its Ahmedabad peers — the predictor shows exactly where you stand and which branches stay realistic for your category and quota.
What NHL, AMC MET and private/DNB options exist in Ahmedabad?
Beyond BJMC, Ahmedabad has a full second tier. Smt. NHL Municipal Medical College and AMC MET Medical College, both run by the Ahmedabad Municipal Corporation, offer MD/MS seats with solid municipal-hospital exposure, filled largely through the Gujarat state quota. On the private side, GCS Medical College (a Gujarat Cancer Society trust institution) and Dr. M.K. Shah Medical College & SMS Multispeciality Hospital add MD/MS seats. If you are open to the DNB pathway, several NBEMS-accredited hospitals in and around the Ahmedabad–Gandhinagar belt run broad-speciality DNB seats — counselled through MCC — that widen your options considerably.
- Municipal colleges: Smt. NHL Municipal and AMC MET — MD/MS seats with high municipal-hospital case loads, filled mainly through the Gujarat state quota.
- Private / trust colleges: GCS Medical College and Dr. M.K. Shah Medical College — MD/MS seats through state, management and NRI quotas.
- NBEMS-accredited hospitals in the Ahmedabad–Gandhinagar belt (e.g. Sterling and other multi-speciality hospitals) run broad-speciality DNB seats outside the college system.
- DNB seats are counselled through MCC — a smart way to secure a recognised PG qualification when MD/MS cut-offs are tight.
- For the exact colleges, branches and DNB seats open to your rank, run the predictor rather than relying on a static list.
Private seat or DNB slot? Find the right fit
Ahmedabad's private colleges and NBEMS-accredited DNB hospitals open options far beyond the government quota. Match your rank and budget to real MD/MS/DNB seats — with indicative fees and stipend attached — in one click.
How does Gujarat NEET-PG counselling work — AIQ vs ACPPGMEC state quota?
Admission to MD/MS/DNB seats in Ahmedabad runs on two parallel tracks. The 50% All India Quota (AIQ) from government colleges is filled by the Medical Counselling Committee (MCC) under DGHS, New Delhi, at mcc.nic.in — open to qualified candidates nationwide. The 50% Gujarat state quota, plus all private and self-financed college seats, is handled by the Admission Committee for Professional Postgraduate Medical Educational Courses (ACPPGMEC) under the Gujarat Government, through medadmgujarat.org. Both tracks run multiple rounds, and the same rank can land very different colleges depending on which door you use.
| Feature | 50% All India Quota (AIQ) | 50% Gujarat State Quota |
|---|---|---|
| Conducting body | MCC / DGHS (mcc.nic.in) | ACPPGMEC (medadmgujarat.org) |
| Who can apply | All NEET-PG qualified candidates, nationwide | Gujarat-domicile candidates per eligibility rules |
| Seats covered | 50% of government-college MD/MS seats + DNB | 50% govt seats + private / self-financed / management |
| Rounds | Multiple rounds (R1, R2, mop-up, stray) | Multiple state rounds |
| Best suited to | Reaching top govt seats on national merit | Home-state aspirants targeting Ahmedabad colleges |
AIQ or Gujarat state quota — which wins for you?
The same rank can land very different colleges through the 50% All India Quota versus the Gujarat state quota. The predictor runs both paths for you and shows which route gives you the stronger Ahmedabad college and branch.
What were the NEET-PG 2026 cut-offs and result details?
NBEMS declared the NEET-PG 2026 result on 24 September 2026, with around 2.66 lakh candidates in the fray for MD, MS, DNB, the direct 6-year DrNB and PG-Diploma seats. The qualifying cut-offs (out of 720) decide who is eligible to enter counselling — but clearing the cut-off is only the entry ticket. Your actual rank, not the qualifying mark, decides which Ahmedabad college and branch you can win, and closing ranks differ sharply by college, branch, category and quota.
| Category | Qualifying cut-off (out of 720) |
|---|---|
| General / EWS | 262 |
| General-PwBD | 244 |
| SC / ST / OBC (including PwBD) | 226 |
This guide covers NEET-PG medical seats only — MD, MS, DNB and the direct 6-year DrNB. Super-speciality DM/M.Ch (and post-MD/MS super-speciality DrNB) seats are filled through NEET-SS, a separate exam, and PG seats at AIIMS (including AIIMS Rajkot), PGIMER, JIPMER and NIMHANS are filled through INI-CET, also separate from NEET-PG. Plan those on their own timelines.

Turn your NEET-PG 2026 rank into a real college list
Qualifying cut-offs only tell you that you are in the game. Your rank decides your college. Feed your rank and category into the predictor to convert it into an accurate, personalised list of MD/MS/DNB seats — no outdated PDFs, no guesswork.
Turn My Rank Into CollegesHow much do Ahmedabad MD/MS/DNB seats cost — fees, stipend and bond?
Cost varies enormously by seat type. Government and municipal seats are the most affordable; GMERS and higher municipal government-quota seats sit in the middle; and private, self-financed management and NRI seats are the steepest, with NRI seats often quoted in US dollars. Gujarat's Fee Regulatory Committee revises PG fees each cycle, so treat every figure here as indicative and confirm the current, exact number per college. The bands below are for orientation only.
| Seat type | Indicative annual fee band | Notes (verify per college) |
|---|---|---|
| Government / municipal (state or AIQ) | Lowest band | Service bond usually applies |
| GMERS / higher municipal govt-quota | Mid band | Varies by branch |
| Private / self-financed management | Higher band | Branch-dependent |
| NRI quota | Highest band (USD-denominated) | Set per institute |
- Stipend: PG residents in Gujarat are paid a monthly stipend that rises each year of the course — treat any figure as indicative, as amounts vary by college and are revised periodically.
- Service bond: most government-quota PG seats carry a bond of roughly 1–3 years, with an opt-out penalty — the exact bond term and penalty differ by college and quota.
- Golden rule: every fee, stipend and bond figure is indicative — get the current, college-specific number attached to each matched seat in the predictor before you commit.
Know the real cost before you fill choices
LockedFees, stipend and service bond vary hugely between government, municipal, private and NRI seats in Ahmedabad. See the figures attached to every matched college so there are no surprises after allotment.
See Fees, Stipend & BondHow do I plan my Ahmedabad NEET-PG choices smartly?
- Safe seats: colleges and branches whose recent closing-rank trends sit comfortably behind your rank — these anchor your list so you don't go unmatched.
- Target seats: colleges within striking distance of your rank in your category and quota — the core of your choice list.
- Reach seats: aspirational branches like Radiology or Dermatology at BJMC — worth ranking high, but never at the cost of your safe options.
- Run both quotas: check AIQ (MCC) and the Gujarat state quota (ACPPGMEC) separately, then blend the best of each.
- Keep DNB on the table: NBEMS DNB seats can rescue a tight rank with a fully recognised PG qualification.
- Order matters: within each counselling round, sequence choices by genuine preference — allotment follows your order strictly.
Build a smart safe–target–reach list
Don't burn a counselling round on a wishful choice or a wasted safe one. The predictor sorts your Ahmedabad and pan-India options into safe, target and reach seats using round-wise closing-rank trends and your admit-probability.
Build My Safe-Target-Reach ListNEET-PG colleges in Ahmedabad: FAQs
Which is the best medical college in Ahmedabad for NEET-PG?
B.J. Medical College is the most sought-after government PG college in Ahmedabad, thanks to its Civil Hospital case load and breadth of MD/MS branches. But 'best' depends on the branch you want, your category and your quota — a private or DNB seat may be the smarter fit for a given rank. Run your rank in the predictor to see which colleges and branches are genuinely in reach for you.
How many PG medical colleges are there in Ahmedabad?
Ahmedabad has a government flagship (BJMC), municipal/semi-government colleges (Smt. NHL Municipal, AMC MET), private/trust colleges (GCS, Dr. M.K. Shah) and several NBEMS-accredited hospitals offering DNB seats. The predictor lists the specific colleges and specialities that match your rank rather than a static roster.
What is the NEET-PG 2026 cut-off for Gujarat colleges?
The NEET-PG 2026 qualifying cut-offs (out of 720) are 262 for General/EWS, 244 for General-PwBD and 226 for SC/ST/OBC including PwBD. These only make you eligible for counselling — the college-wise closing ranks in Ahmedabad are separate and are driven by branch, category and quota. Check them for your rank in the predictor.
Which authority conducts Gujarat NEET-PG counselling?
Two authorities: the ACPPGMEC (Admission Committee for Professional Postgraduate Medical Educational Courses) under the Gujarat Government handles the 50% state quota plus private and self-financed seats via medadmgujarat.org; the MCC (DGHS, New Delhi) handles the 50% All India Quota and DNB seats via mcc.nic.in.
Can non-Gujarat candidates get a PG seat in Ahmedabad?
Yes — through the 50% All India Quota conducted by MCC, which is open to all qualified candidates nationwide. The Gujarat state quota generally requires Gujarat domicile/eligibility. The predictor can run your rank through the AIQ route to show your Ahmedabad and pan-India options.
What is the difference between MD, MS, DNB and DrNB?
MD (Doctor of Medicine) and MS (Master of Surgery) are university postgraduate degrees in medical and surgical branches. DNB (Diplomate of National Board) is an NBEMS qualification of equivalent standing, awarded mainly through accredited hospitals. DrNB is the National Board's doctoral qualification — a direct 6-year DrNB in select broad specialities is entered through NEET-PG, while post-MD/MS super-speciality DrNB (alongside DM/M.Ch) is filled through NEET-SS. This guide and the predictor cover the NEET-PG routes: MD, MS, DNB and the direct 6-year DrNB.
Are AIIMS or PGIMER PG seats filled through NEET-PG?
No. PG seats at AIIMS (including AIIMS Rajkot in Gujarat), PGIMER, JIPMER and NIMHANS are filled through INI-CET, a separate entrance exam — not NEET-PG. Plan those separately if they are on your radar.
What is the fee for MD/MS in Ahmedabad government colleges?
Government and municipal PG fees are the most affordable of all seat types, while private management and NRI seats cost far more. Fees are revised each cycle, so treat published figures as indicative — get the current, college-specific fee attached to each matched seat in the predictor.
Do PG residents in Ahmedabad get a stipend?
Yes. PG residents in Gujarat are paid a monthly stipend that increases each year of the course. Exact amounts vary by college and are revised periodically, so use them as an indicative guide and verify the current figure before choosing.
Is there a service bond for government PG seats in Gujarat?
Most government-quota PG seats carry a service bond, commonly around 1–3 years, with an opt-out penalty. The exact bond term and penalty differ by college and quota — confirm them for each seat before you fill choices.
What rank do I need for MD/MS at BJ Medical College?
There is no single number — it depends on the branch, your category and whether you compete through AIQ or the Gujarat state quota. Clinical branches like Radiology and Dermatology close much tighter than pre-clinical ones. The predictor shows round-wise closing-rank trends against your exact rank.
How do I get my exact list of Ahmedabad NEET-PG colleges?
Enter your NEET-PG 2026 rank and category in the MedAdmit NEET-PG College Predictor. You'll get a personalised list of MD/MS/DNB colleges and specialities across MCC AIQ and every state — each with round-wise closing ranks, annual fees, stipend, bond and an admit-probability — so you can plan Ahmedabad choices with confidence.
