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 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. Missing this deadline means your provisional allotment becomes final, and you cannot challenge it later.
Check your provisional allotment on mcc.nic.in immediately and submit any grievances by 11:30 AM on October 24, 2026—after this, the final allotment is locked and you cannot dispute it.

Unlock My College ListWhat Has Happened: Provisional Allotment Released
The MCC has published the Round 1 provisional allotment result for NEET PG 2026 counselling on its official portal. This provisional list shows which seat (college, specialty, and category) has been tentatively assigned to each candidate based on their NEET PG rank, choice order, and the seat matrix. It is called 'provisional' because it is not yet final—the MCC will review any grievances or discrepancies reported by candidates before locking the allotment.
Every candidate who participated in Round 1 counselling can now download their allotment PDF from mcc.nic.in. The document will show your roll number, rank, allotted college, specialty, and seat category. This is your first official confirmation of where you may be admitted, but it is not binding until the final allotment is released.
The Grievance Window: Your Last Chance to Correct Errors
The MCC has opened a 'Candidates Grievances and Query Redressal System' on the candidate login portal. This system will remain active until 11:30 AM on October 24, 2026. Any discrepancy you notice in your provisional allotment—such as an incorrect rank, a specialty you did not choose, a college you did not rank, or a category error—must be reported through this system within this window.
Once the deadline passes, the provisional allotment becomes the final allotment, and no further corrections or complaints will be entertained. This is a hard cutoff. If you miss it, you will be bound by the allotment as shown in the provisional list, even if you believe it contains an error. Therefore, it is essential to review your allotment carefully and act immediately if you spot any problem.
How to Check Your Provisional Allotment
Checking your allotment is straightforward and takes only a few minutes. Visit the official MCC website (mcc.nic.in), locate the Round 1 Provisional Allotment result link, and download the PDF. The allotment list is typically published as a searchable PDF or can be accessed via the candidate login portal using your application number and password.

Navigate to the 'Grievance Redressal' or 'Candidates Grievances and Query Redressal System' link. Fill in the required details, clearly describing the error you have identified (for example, 'My rank is shown as 5000 but my actual rank is 4500' or 'I was allotted Radiology but I did not choose it in my top 5 preferences').
Be specific and factual in your grievance. Provide your rank, your choice order, and the allotment you received. Save and submit the form before 11:30 AM on October 24. The MCC will review all grievances submitted and prepare a corrected final allotment. Candidates whose grievances are upheld will see their allotment corrected in the final list.

What Happens After the Grievance Deadline
Once the grievance window closes at 11:30 AM on October 24, the MCC will process all complaints and prepare the final allotment result. This final list will incorporate corrections for any valid grievances. The final allotment will then be published on mcc.nic.in, and candidates will be notified.
After the final allotment is released, you will be required to report to your allotted college to complete the admission process. You must carry all original documents, photocopies, passport-size photographs, and your allotment letter (which you can download from the portal). Failure to report within the specified time may result in forfeiture of your seat.
Common Errors to Watch For
Every kind of PG seat, one rank
See the real seats your NEET-PG rank can reach.
While the MCC's allotment algorithm is generally robust, errors can occur. Some common discrepancies include: a rank that does not match your NEET PG score, a specialty assigned that you did not rank in your top choices, a college allotted that is not in your preferred list, or a category error (e.g., you are allotted an SC seat when you applied as General). Review your provisional allotment against your NEET PG scorecard and your submitted choice order to catch these.
Another issue to watch is whether your allotment respects your state quota or all-India quota eligibility. If you are eligible for a state quota seat but have been allotted an all-India seat (or vice versa), this may be an error worth flagging. Similarly, if you are a resident of a particular state and have been allotted a college outside your state when state-quota seats were available, this warrants a grievance.
- Rank mismatch with your NEET PG score
- Specialty not in your choice order
- College not in your preference list
- Category error (General vs. OBC/SC/ST)
- State quota vs. all-India quota discrepancy
- Incorrect eligibility classification
Why This Matters for Your PG Career
Your allotment in Round 1 determines where you will spend the next 3 years (or more) of your medical career. The college, specialty, and location you are allotted will shape your clinical training, research opportunities, and professional network. An error in allotment—such as being assigned a specialty you did not choose or a college far from your home—can have lasting consequences.
Moreover, if you miss the grievance deadline and later discover an error, you will have no recourse. You will be bound by the allotment for the entire duration of your course. This is why the 11:30 AM deadline on October 24 is non-negotiable. Treat this as your final opportunity to ensure the allotment is correct before it becomes permanent.
Next Steps: Timeline and Preparation
Your immediate action items are: (1) Download and review your provisional allotment by October 24 morning, (2) If you spot an error, submit a grievance before 11:30 AM on October 24, (3) Wait for the final allotment to be published (usually within 1–2 days after the grievance deadline), (4) Once the final allotment is out, begin gathering your documents for college reporting.
Start preparing your document checklist now: original MBBS degree, NEET PG admit card and scorecard, allotment letter (to be downloaded), identity proof, address proof, caste certificate (if applicable), and passport-size photographs. Confirm the college's reporting date and any hostel or accommodation arrangements. If you are allotted a college in a different city, begin planning your relocation.
