Puducherry's Centralised Admission Committee (CENTAC) has released an additional allotment list for Round 2 of NEET UG 2026-27 counselling. Five MBBS seats that were previously withheld have now been allotted to five candidates across three government medical colleges in Puducherry. However, there is an important condition: all admissions under this list are provisional and subject to the outcome of a pending High Court case (W.A.No.2674 of 2026). This means the allotments could be affected depending on what the court decides. If your name appears on this list, you must act immediately to secure your seat, but understand that your admission carries this legal uncertainty.
Five MBBS seats are now allotted in Round 2, but admissions are provisional and depend on a pending High Court ruling.

Unlock My College ListWhat is this allotment list?
This is an additional allotment list released by CENTAC on 5 October 2026 for Round 2 of the 2026-27 NEET UG counselling process in Puducherry. The five seats listed here were originally withheld (held back) by the authority, and are now being released for allotment to candidates.
The allotment is for MBBS courses only, across three government medical colleges: Sri Manakula Vinayaka Medical College & Hospital (SMVMC&H), Puducherry Institute of Medical Sciences (PIMS), and Sri Venkateshwara Medical College & Research Institute (SVMC&RI).
This is NOT a final allotment. The notice explicitly states that admissions are 'subject to outcome of W.A.No.2674 of 2026 that is pending on the file of the Hon'ble Madras High Court.' This means the court case could change or cancel these allotments. You must be aware of this risk before accepting your seat.
Who has been allotted seats?
Five candidates have been allotted MBBS seats in this round. The allotment list shows each candidate's application number, name, NEET All India Rank, NEET score, residence status, the category they applied under, the category they were allotted under, the college assigned, and the round in which they were allotted.
- K Mahashree (App No. 62602766) – NEET Rank 193713, Score 436 – Allotted to SMVMC&H, PDY (Round 1)
- Indhian R S (App No. 62602812) – NEET Rank 216701, Score 425 – Allotted to SMVMC&H, PDY (Round 1)

| S.No | App No | Name | NEET All India Rank | NEET Score | Residence | Applied Category | Allotted Category | College | Course | Round |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | 62602766 | K Mahashree | 193713 | 436 | PY | OBC | UOB | SMVMC&H, PDY | M.B.B.S. | 1 |
| 2 | 62602812 | Indhian R S | 216701 | 425 | PY | MBC | UMB | SMVMC&H, PDY | M.B.B.S. | 1 |
| 3 | 62603173 | Sivapriya P | 127147 | 474 | PY | MBC | UGE | PIMS, PDY | M.B.B.S. | 1 |
| 4 | 62604161 | Kanishhka Baskara Pandian | 161061 | 454 | PY | MBC | UGE | SMVMC&H, PDY | M.B.B.S. | 2 |
| 5 | 62605327 | Yogesh R | 478677 | 331 | PY | SC | USC | SVMC&RI, PDY | M.B.B.S. | 2 |
What do the category codes mean?
The allotment list uses abbreviations for categories. Understanding these is important because they show which quota (reserved or unreserved) you were allotted under, which affects your eligibility and seat security.
PY in the 'Residence' column means 'Puducherry Resident' — all five candidates are residents of Puducherry. OBC, MBC, and SC are the categories candidates applied under (OBC = Other Backward Class, MBC = Most Backward Class, SC = Scheduled Caste). UOB, UMB, UGE, and USC are the allotted categories: UOB = Unreserved OBC, UMB = Unreserved MBC, UGE = Unreserved General, USC = Unreserved SC. The 'Unreserved' prefix means the seat was not reserved for that category but was allotted to the candidate based on merit and availability.

The critical condition: High Court case pending
This is the most important thing you must understand. The notice states: 'the admission of the candidates will be subject to outcome of W.A.No.2674 of 2026 that is pending on the file of the Hon'ble Madras High Court.' W.A. stands for 'Writ Appeal' — a legal petition filed in court.
What this means: These five allotments are PROVISIONAL. They are not final. If the High Court rules against the state or CENTAC in case W.A.No.2674/2026, the allotments could be cancelled, modified, or reversed. You are being allotted a seat, but the court could overturn that decision.
What you should do: If your name is on this list and you wish to accept the seat, proceed with the admission process (reporting to the college, submitting documents, paying fees) as instructed by CENTAC. However, be aware that your admission is at risk until the court case is resolved. Do not assume your seat is 100% secure. Keep monitoring the CENTAC website and the Madras High Court website for updates on W.A.No.2674/2026.
Colleges where seats are allotted
Three government medical colleges in Puducherry are offering seats in this round:
Sri Manakula Vinayaka Medical College & Hospital (SMVMC&H), Puducherry — Three seats allotted (to K Mahashree, Indhian R S, and Kanishhka Baskara Pandian).
Puducherry Institute of Medical Sciences (PIMS), Puducherry — One seat allotted (to Sivapriya P).
Sri Venkateshwara Medical College & Research Institute (SVMC&RI), Puducherry — One seat allotted (to Yogesh R).
All three are government institutions in Puducherry. If you are allotted a seat, you will study MBBS at one of these colleges.
What happens next if your name is on the list?
If your name appears in the allotment list, CENTAC will issue further instructions on the next steps. These typically include: (1) reporting to the allotted college on a specified date with original documents, (2) verification of your eligibility and documents by the college, (3) payment of admission fees, and (4) completion of formalities to secure your seat.
You must check the CENTAC website (centac.ac.in or the official Puducherry higher education portal) regularly for the next notice, which will specify the reporting date, time, venue, and documents to bring. Missing the reporting deadline can result in forfeiture of your seat.

Important dates and deadlines
The allotment list was released on 5 October 2026. No specific reporting date or deadline is mentioned in this notice. You must wait for the next official notice from CENTAC, which will specify when and where you must report to your allotted college.
Do not assume you have unlimited time. Typically, reporting deadlines in counselling are 2–5 days after the allotment list is released. Check the CENTAC website daily for the next notice.

- Reporting deadline: To be announced by CENTAC (typically within 2–5 days of allotment)
What if your name is NOT on the list?
If you participated in Round 2 counselling but your name does not appear on this additional allotment list, it means you were not allotted a seat in this release. This does not mean you will not get a seat — further rounds of counselling may be conducted, or seats may become available if allotted candidates do not report or forfeit their seats.
Continue to monitor the CENTAC website for announcements of subsequent rounds or spot allotments. If you have any queries about your status, contact CENTAC directly at the address provided: Kamarajar Manimandapam, Karuvadikuppam, Puducherry – 605008.
Understanding 'Round 1' and 'Round 2' in the allotment column
The 'Round' column in the table shows when each candidate was originally allotted. Three candidates (K Mahashree, Indhian R S, Sivapriya P) show 'Round 1', meaning they were allotted in the first round of counselling. Two candidates (Kanishhka Baskara Pandian, Yogesh R) show 'Round 2', meaning they were allotted in the second round.
However, this entire list is being released as an 'Additional Provisional Allotment' on 5 October 2026 because these five seats were withheld. The 'Round' column indicates when they were originally allotted; the fact that they are being released now means they are being confirmed or re-released due to the court case.
Why were these seats withheld?
The notice does not explain why these five seats were withheld. It only states that they are being released 'in pursuance of orders in W.A.No. 2674 of 2026.' This suggests that a court order or legal development prompted CENTAC to release them. The pending High Court case may be related to the reason for the withholding.
As a candidate, you do not need to know the legal details, but you should be aware that the court case is ongoing and could affect your admission.

Is this allotment final, or can it be cancelled?
This allotment is PROVISIONAL and NOT final. The notice explicitly states that admissions are 'subject to outcome of W.A.No.2674 of 2026 that is pending on the file of the Hon'ble Madras High Court.' If the court rules against the state or CENTAC, these allotments could be cancelled or modified. You should proceed with admission if allotted, but understand that your seat is at legal risk until the court case is resolved.
My name is on the list. What do I do now?
Wait for the next official notice from CENTAC, which will specify the reporting date, time, venue, and documents required. Check the CENTAC website (centac.ac.in) daily. Once the reporting notice is issued, you must report to your allotted college with all original documents (NEET scorecard, certificates, caste certificate if applicable, residence certificate, Aadhaar, etc.) by the deadline. Missing the deadline will result in forfeiture of your seat.
What is the difference between 'Applied Category' and 'Allotted Category'?
The 'Applied Category' is the category (OBC, MBC, SC, etc.) you applied under during counselling. The 'Allotted Category' is the category under which you were actually allotted a seat. For example, if you applied as OBC but were allotted under 'Unreserved OBC' (UOB), it means the seat was not reserved for OBC but was given to you based on merit. This affects your seat security and eligibility in future rounds.
When will I know the reporting date and deadline?
The reporting date and deadline are NOT mentioned in this notice. CENTAC will issue a separate notice with these details. You must check the CENTAC website regularly (daily if possible) for the next announcement. Typically, reporting deadlines are 2–5 days after the allotment list is released, so act quickly once the notice is issued.
What documents do I need to bring when I report to the college?
The notice does not specify the exact documents required. However, standard documents for medical college admission typically include: NEET admit card, NEET scorecard, 10th and 12th mark sheets and certificates, caste certificate (if applicable), residence certificate, Aadhaar card, passport-size photographs, and any other documents specified by CENTAC in the reporting notice. Bring all originals and photocopies.
My name is not on this list. Does this mean I won't get a seat?
No. This is an additional allotment for five withheld seats. Further rounds of counselling may be conducted, or seats may become available if allotted candidates do not report or forfeit their seats. Continue to monitor the CENTAC website for announcements of subsequent rounds or spot allotments.
What is W.A.No.2674 of 2026, and why does it matter?
W.A. stands for 'Writ Appeal' — a legal petition filed in the Madras High Court. W.A.No.2674 of 2026 is a case that is currently pending (unresolved) in court. The outcome of this case could affect these allotments. If the court rules against the state or CENTAC, these seats could be cancelled or reallocated. You should monitor the court's decision and CENTAC's updates.
Which colleges are offering seats, and how many?
Three government medical colleges in Puducherry are offering MBBS seats: (1) Sri Manakula Vinayaka Medical College & Hospital (SMVMC&H) — 3 seats, (2) Puducherry Institute of Medical Sciences (PIMS) — 1 seat, (3) Sri Venkateshwara Medical College & Research Institute (SVMC&RI) — 1 seat. All are government institutions in Puducherry.
What does 'PY' mean in the Residence column?
'PY' stands for 'Puducherry Resident.' All five candidates allotted in this list are residents of Puducherry. This affects their eligibility for certain reserved seats and quotas.
Can I reject this allotment and wait for the next round?
The notice does not explicitly address this. However, in most counselling processes, if you are allotted a seat and do not report by the deadline, your seat is forfeited and you may not be eligible for further rounds. If you wish to reject this allotment, contact CENTAC immediately for clarification on your options. Do not assume you can simply skip reporting and participate in the next round.
If your name appears on this allotment list, monitor the CENTAC website (centac.ac.in) daily for the next notice specifying the reporting date, time, and venue. Prepare all required documents (NEET scorecard, certificates, caste certificate if applicable, residence certificate, Aadhaar, photographs) and report to your allotted college by the deadline. Remember: this allotment is provisional and subject to a pending High Court case (W.A.No.2674/2026), so your admission is not 100% secure until the court rules. If your name is not on the list, continue to monitor CENTAC for announcements of further rounds or spot allotments. For any queries, contact CENTAC at Kamarajar Manimandapam, Karuvadikuppam, Puducherry – 605008.
