The Medical Counselling Committee (MCC) has released the provisional seat allotment for Round 1 of NEET PG 2026 counselling. This is a critical moment for MBBS doctors who have applied for MD, MS, PG Diploma, or DNB broad-speciality seats: you now have a narrow window to check your allotment status and flag any errors before the final result is declared. If you spot a discrepancy in your allotment—whether in your rank, specialty choice, or college assignment—you must report it immediately through the official grievance system. The deadline to submit complaints is 11:30 AM on October 24, 2026, after which the final allotment will be locked and you will be expected to report to your assigned college.

Check your provisional allotment on mcc.nic.in immediately and submit any grievances or errors through the candidate portal by 11:30 AM on October 24, 2026—this is your only chance to correct mistakes before final allotment.

How to Download Your NEET PG Round 1 Provisional Allotment

The MCC has made the provisional allotment PDF available on its official website. To access your allotment result, visit mcc.nic.in and locate the Round 1 Provisional Allotment link. You will need to download the PDF document, which contains the complete list of candidates and their assigned seats, colleges, and specialties.

The process is straightforward: open the website, find the allotment result section, and download the PDF. Once downloaded, search for your registration number or name in the document to find your provisional allocation. Keep this PDF safe—you will need it for verification and reporting to your college.

Understanding the Provisional vs. Final Allotment Timeline

The allotment released today is provisional, not final. This means it is subject to review and correction based on grievances submitted by candidates. The MCC has built in a grievance window specifically to catch and resolve errors before the final allotment is declared. This is a safeguard to ensure fairness and accuracy in seat allocation.

After the grievance deadline passes on October 24 at 11:30 AM, the MCC will review all submitted complaints and make corrections where warranted. The final allotment result will then be released, and only after that will you be permitted to report to your assigned college. Do not attempt to report before the final allotment is announced, as your admission will not be processed.

What Errors Should You Report in Your Allotment?

Review your provisional allotment carefully for any of the following issues: incorrect rank or score, wrong specialty assigned (e.g., you chose Radiology but were allotted Pathology), college mismatch (you were allotted a college outside your preferred list), or any administrative error in your name, registration number, or category. Even small discrepancies can affect your career, so scrutinize every detail.

Common errors include candidates being allotted a specialty they did not rank high enough for, or being assigned to a college in a state they did not prefer. If you notice any such issue, do not assume it will be corrected automatically—you must flag it through the grievance system. The MCC will not proactively correct errors; it relies on candidates to report them.

  • Incorrect rank or NEET PG score displayed
  • Wrong specialty or branch assigned
  • College not on your preference list
  • Name, registration number, or category error
  • Seat category mismatch (e.g., General vs. OBC)

How to Submit a Grievance Before the Deadline

The MCC has activated the Candidates Grievances and Query Redressal System on the candidate login portal. To submit a grievance, log in using your application number and password, navigate to the grievance redressal section, and enter details of the error you have identified. Be specific and clear about what is wrong and what correction you are requesting.

The system will remain open until 11:30 AM on October 24, 2026. After that time, the portal will close and no further grievances will be accepted. This is a hard deadline—submissions made even one minute after 11:30 AM will not be considered. Plan to submit your grievance well before the cutoff to avoid technical delays or last-minute issues.

  • Visit mcc.nic.in and click on Candidate Login
  • Enter your application number and password
  • Click on the Grievance Redressal link
  • Fill in all required details about the error
  • Save and submit your grievance
  • Keep a screenshot or confirmation for your records

What Happens After You Submit a Grievance?

Once you submit a grievance, the MCC will review it along with all other complaints received by the deadline. The committee will verify the claim and make corrections where justified. You will not receive individual confirmation for each grievance; instead, the corrections (if any) will be reflected in the final allotment result when it is released.

This means you should not expect a direct reply to your grievance. Instead, check the final allotment result carefully when it is published to see if your issue has been resolved. If your grievance was upheld, your allotment will be corrected in the final list. If it was not, you will need to accept the provisional allotment and proceed with reporting to your assigned college.

Documents You Will Need When Reporting to Your College

Once the final allotment is released and you are ready to report to your assigned college, you must carry specific documents. These include the allotment letter (which you will download from the MCC portal), your original MBBS degree and mark sheets, your NEET PG admit card and score card, your identity proof, and passport-size photographs. Colleges will verify these documents before completing your admission.

Prepare both original documents and photocopies of each. The college will retain photocopies for its records and return originals to you. Failure to bring any required document may delay or prevent your admission, so organize these well in advance. The allotment letter is particularly important—without it, the college will not process your admission.

  • Allotment letter (downloaded from mcc.nic.in)
  • Original MBBS degree certificate
  • MBBS mark sheets (all semesters)
  • NEET PG admit card
  • NEET PG score card
  • Identity proof (Aadhaar, PAN, or passport)
  • Passport-size photographs (4–6 copies)
  • Photocopies of all above documents

Why the Grievance Window Matters for Your Career

The grievance window is not a formality—it is your only opportunity to correct errors in the allotment process before it becomes final. A wrong specialty or college assignment can significantly impact your postgraduate training, career trajectory, and personal circumstances. If you are allotted a specialty you did not want or a college far from home, and you do not report it now, you will be bound by that allotment for the entire duration of your course.

Many candidates overlook this step, assuming errors will be caught automatically or that they can negotiate after reporting to college. This is a mistake. Colleges will not change your allotment once you have reported, and the MCC will not revisit decisions after the final allotment is declared. Use this window actively and carefully.

What If You Do Not Find Your Name in the Provisional Allotment?

If you have applied for NEET PG 2026 counselling but do not see your name in the provisional allotment list, it means you have not been allotted a seat in Round 1. This can happen if your rank is below the cutoff for all your preferred specialties and colleges, or if there were insufficient seats available in your category. Do not panic—this does not mean your counselling is over.

You will be eligible to participate in subsequent rounds of counselling (Round 2, Stray Vacancy Round, etc.), where additional seats may become available. Continue to monitor the MCC website for announcements about the next round. If you believe there is an error in your non-allotment, you can also submit a grievance through the same system to request clarification.
