If you registered for Punjab's state counselling for MBBS or BDS seats through Baba Farid University of Health Sciences (BFUHS), the date you've been waiting for has moved. The Round 1 provisional seat allotment result, originally due on August 22, 2026, will now be declared on August 27, 2026. This matters because every downstream deadline — objections, any revised list, document verification, and fee payment — has shifted with it. Missing the new dates or acting on the old ones could cost you your seat, so it's worth getting the revised timeline straight before results open.
Punjab NEET UG 2026 Round 1 allotment is now out on August 27, and every later deadline — objection, revised list, reporting, and fee payment — has moved five days later too, so aspirants must plan around the new dates, not the original ones.
What exactly changed
BFUHS runs counselling for the 85% state quota seats in Punjab's MBBS and BDS colleges, covering government colleges as well as private, minority, and university-run institutes that fall under the state counselling umbrella. After the choice-filling window closed on August 23, the university needed extra time to process merit and choice data, and pushed the provisional allotment date by five days.
This is a scheduling shift, not a change in eligibility, seat matrix, or process. If you filled your choices during the August 16–23 window, you remain in the reckoning for Round 1 — you simply need to check the result on the new date instead of the old one.
| Event | Revised Date |
|---|---|
| Online choice filling | August 16 to August 23, 2026 (up to 5:00 PM) |
| Provisional seat allotment result | August 27, 2026 |
| Last date to submit objections | August 28, 2026 |
| Revised provisional allotment (if any) | August 29, 2026 |
| Reporting, document verification, medical exam, fee payment | August 30 to September 5, 2026 |
Who is covered under this round
Round 1 allotment applies to both MBBS and BDS seats under the 85% state quota, spread across government medical and dental colleges, private colleges, university-run institutes, and minority quota seats, all drawn from the same common merit list. Only candidates who qualified NEET UG 2026 and registered with BFUHS for Punjab counselling are eligible to see an allotment against their name.
Counselling fee and tuition fee: don't confuse the two
The counselling registration fee was already collected at the registration stage and differs by category. General and other category candidates paid Rs 5,900 (including 18% GST), while SC candidates paid Rs 2,950. This is separate from the tuition fee, which is due only after you're allotted a seat and choose to report.
At the physical reporting stage (August 30 to September 5), allotted candidates must pay the first six months' tuition fee through the online payment gateway inside their candidate login. Families should have this amount ready in advance rather than scrambling for funds once the allotment letter is out, since the reporting window is short.
How to check your Round 1 result
The result will be visible on the BFUHS admission portal from August 27, 2026 onward.
- Go to bfuhsonline.ac.in and open the MBBS/BDS 2026 counselling section.
- Click the Round 1 provisional allotment result link.
- Log in with your registered user ID and password.
- Check the allotted college, course, and category shown on screen.
- Download and save/print the allotment letter immediately — you'll need it for reporting and for any objection.
If you want to raise an objection
BFUHS accepts objections against the provisional allotment only in person, at its Faridkot campus. Emailed or online objections will not be considered, so candidates who spot an error in category, rank, or allotted seat must be prepared to travel and submit paperwork physically within the objection window (by August 28).
Carry a printout of the allotment letter, proof of your merit rank, the NEET UG 2026 scorecard, and category/domicile certificates as applicable. The Admission Branch verifies each objection before deciding whether to issue a revised allotment list on August 29.
What Punjab aspirants should do right now
With a compressed window between allotment and reporting, preparation before the result drops saves time and stress.
- Check the portal on August 27 as soon as it updates — don't wait for a notification.
- Keep NEET UG 2026 scorecard, Class 10 and Class 12 marksheets, domicile, category, and character certificates ready and photocopied.
- Arrange six months' tuition fee in advance so payment isn't a last-minute hurdle during August 30–September 5.
- If you plan to travel for objection or reporting, book only after seeing the actual allotment — not based on the earlier August 22 date.
- Watch the portal for the separate notice on objection timing and reporting venue, since these can be updated independently of the main schedule.

Why was the Punjab NEET UG 2026 Round 1 allotment date changed?
BFUHS moved the date from August 22 to August 27, 2026 after taking extra time to process merit and choice-filling data submitted during the August 16–23 window.
Where will the Round 1 result be published?
On the official BFUHS counselling portal, bfuhsonline.ac.in, under the MBBS and BDS 2026 counselling section.
What if I disagree with my allotted seat?
You can object, but only in person at the BFUHS Faridkot campus, by August 28, 2026. Email or online objections are not accepted. Carry your allotment letter, NEET scorecard, and relevant certificates.
How much fee do I pay after getting a seat?
At reporting (August 30 to September 5, 2026), you pay six months' tuition fee online through your candidate login. This is separate from the counselling registration fee already paid earlier (Rs 5,900 general, Rs 2,950 SC, including GST).
Does this schedule cover private and minority colleges too?
Yes. Round 1 allotment includes government medical and dental colleges as well as private, university-run, and minority quota seats within Punjab's 85% state quota, all from the same merit list.
Will there be a Round 2 after this?
BFUHS has indicated Round 2 dates will be announced later, after Round 1 reporting and any revised allotment are completed.
The core advice is simple: check bfuhsonline.ac.in on August 27, download your allotment letter the moment it's visible, and plan your travel and fee payment around the new dates, not the original August 22 schedule. Keep an eye on the portal for the separate objection and reporting notices BFUHS is expected to release right after the result.
