Rajasthan NEET PG 2026 Round 2: Registration Now Open

Rajasthan NEET PG Board has announced that registration for Round 2 of postgraduate medical counselling is now live as of 13 November 2026. This is the second round of seat allotment for MD, MS, PG Diploma, and DNB broad-speciality programmes across government, RajMES, and private medical colleges in Rajasthan. Candidates who did not secure a seat in Round 1, or who wish to upgrade their seat, must register and fill their choices during this window. The Round 2 schedule has been published, and candidates must act quickly to meet all deadlines. This is a critical opportunity — missing the registration or choice-filling deadline will result in automatic exclusion from Round 2 allotment.

What is Round 2 and Who Should Apply?

Round 2 is the second phase of Rajasthan's NEET PG counselling for the 2026–27 academic session. It is open to all NEET PG 2026 qualified candidates who either did not participate in Round 1, did not receive an allotment in Round 1, or wish to participate again to upgrade their seat to a better college or speciality.

Round 2 includes seats that were not filled in Round 1, as well as seats vacated by candidates who did not join after Round 1 allotment. The round covers MD, MS, PG Diploma, and DNB broad-speciality programmes across government medical colleges, RajMES (Rajasthan Medical Education Society) colleges, and private medical colleges in Rajasthan.

If you participated in Round 1 and received an allotment but wish to try for a better option, you may participate in Round 2. However, if you join a seat in Round 2, your Round 1 allotment will be cancelled. Understand the implications before registering.

Important Dates for Round 2

The Rajasthan NEET PG Board has published a Round 2 schedule. The exact dates for registration opening, choice-filling window, and allotment announcement are available in the official 'PG Round 2 Schedule' document published on 12 November 2026. You must download and review this schedule immediately to ensure you do not miss any deadline.

Registration for Round 2 opened on 13 November 2026. All subsequent dates — choice-filling start and end, allotment result announcement, joining deadline — are specified in the schedule document. Mark these dates on your calendar and set reminders, as the board does not grant extensions for missed deadlines.

• Registration opening: 13 November 2026 (now live)

• Do not rely on memory — download and print the schedule

How to Register for Round 2

Registration is conducted online through the official Rajasthan NEET PG portal (pg.neetrajasthan.com). You will need your NEET PG 2026 roll number, password, and other credentials to log in. If you have forgotten your password, use the 'Forgot Password' option on the portal to reset it before the registration deadline.

Once logged in, you will be asked to confirm or update your personal, educational, and contact details. Ensure all information is accurate — any errors in name, date of birth, category, or qualification details can lead to rejection of your application or allotment. After verifying your details, you will be directed to the choice-filling section.

Do not wait until the last day to register. The portal often experiences heavy traffic near the deadline, which can cause delays or technical failures. Register at least 2–3 days before the choice-filling window closes to avoid any risk of missing the deadline.

• Log in to pg.neetrajasthan.com with your NEET PG roll number and password
• Verify and update all personal and educational details
• Confirm your category, qualification, and eligibility status
• Proceed to choice filling once registration is complete
• Register early — do not wait until the last day

Choice Filling: Colleges, Specialities, and Quotas

After registration, you will fill your choices of colleges and specialities in order of preference. The portal will display all available seats in Round 2 across government, RajMES, and private medical colleges. You can view the seat matrix (which shows how many seats are available in each college and speciality, broken down by category and quota) before filling choices.

The seat matrix for Round 2 will be published on the portal. It will show MD, MS, PG Diploma, and DNB seats separately. Study the matrix carefully to understand which colleges and specialities have seats available in your category (General, OBC, SC, ST, etc.) and quota (Open, State Quota, Competent Authority Quota, etc.).

You may fill as many choices as you wish — there is no limit. The allotment algorithm will match you to the highest-ranked choice for which you are eligible and for which a seat is available. Rank your choices in genuine order of preference: the algorithm cannot read your mind, and if you rank a college first, you may be allotted there even if you prefer another college ranked lower.

Candidates from outside Rajasthan may be eligible for seats under the All-India Quota or NRI quota, depending on the college and speciality. Check the seat matrix and the counselling brochure to confirm your eligibility for each quota before filling choices.

• Download and study the Round 2 seat matrix before filling choices
• Understand your category (General, OBC, SC, ST) and eligible quotas
• Fill choices in genuine order of preference — the algorithm ranks by your preference order
• You can fill unlimited choices
• Verify that each college and speciality you choose has seats available in your category
• Do not fill choices for colleges or specialities you are not genuinely interested in

Documents You Must Have Ready

Before you register, gather all required documents. You will need to upload scans or provide details of these documents during registration and choice filling. Missing or incorrect documents can result in rejection of your application or cancellation of your allotment after the result is announced.

The following documents are typically required for Rajasthan NEET PG counselling. Ensure you have originals and scans (PDF or JPG, as specified) ready:

Keep all documents in a single folder on your computer, clearly named and dated. Have originals with you as well — you will need to produce them at the time of joining if you receive an allotment.

• NEET PG 2026 admit card and score card
• MBBS degree certificate or provisional certificate (issued by your medical college)
• MBBS mark sheets (all semesters)
• Category certificate (if applicable: OBC, SC, ST, etc.) — must be issued by the competent authority and must be valid as per the state's rules
• Domicile certificate (if claiming Rajasthan domicile quota)
• In-service certificate (if you are a government doctor or in-service candidate)
• Service bond (if required for in-service candidates — format available on the portal)
• Surety bond (non-service candidates must submit a surety bond; format available on the portal)
• Identity proof (Aadhaar, PAN, or passport)
• Address proof (utility bill, rental agreement, or Aadhaar)
• Passport-size photograph (digital, as per specifications)
• Any other document specified in the counselling brochure or the Round 2 schedule

Category and Quota Rules: What You Must Know

Rajasthan NEET PG counselling allocates seats across multiple categories (General, OBC, SC, ST) and quotas (Open, State Quota, Competent Authority Quota, NRI, etc.). Your eligibility for each quota depends on your domicile, category, and in-service status.

If you are claiming OBC, SC, or ST category, your category certificate must be issued by the competent authority (District Magistrate or equivalent) and must be valid as per Rajasthan's current rules. Some states have sub-categories within OBC (e.g., OBC-A, OBC-B, OBC-C) — if your certificate shows a sub-category, ensure it matches the state's current classification. An invalid or expired category certificate will result in rejection.

If you are claiming Rajasthan domicile quota, you must have a valid domicile certificate issued by the competent authority. Domicile is typically defined as having studied in Rajasthan schools or having resided in Rajasthan for a specified period. Check the counselling brochure for the exact definition and required proof.

In-service candidates (government doctors, ASHA workers, ANM, etc.) may be eligible for reserved seats or special quotas. If you are in-service, you must submit a service certificate from your employer and a service bond (format provided on the portal). Failure to submit the service bond or an invalid bond can result in cancellation of your allotment.

• Category certificate must be issued by the competent authority and must be currently valid
• OBC certificate must show the correct sub-category as per Rajasthan's current classification
• SC and ST certificates must be issued by the District Magistrate or equivalent
• Domicile certificate is required to claim Rajasthan domicile quota
• In-service candidates must submit a service certificate and service bond
• Non-service candidates must submit a surety bond (format on the portal)
• NRI candidates must follow the NRI quota rules and submit required documents

Fee Structure: Government, RajMES, and Private Colleges

The fee structure varies significantly between government medical colleges, RajMES colleges, and private medical colleges. The Rajasthan NEET PG Board has published separate fee details for each category of college. You must review these before filling choices, as the fee you will pay depends on which college you are allotted.

Government medical colleges typically charge the lowest fees. RajMES colleges charge moderate fees. Private medical colleges charge substantially higher fees. Additionally, hostel accommodation fees (if applicable) are charged separately. The exact fee for each college and speciality is listed in the fee structure documents published on the portal.

If you are allotted a seat, you will be required to pay the fee during the joining process. Failure to pay the fee by the specified deadline will result in forfeiture of your seat. Ensure you have the funds available before you fill choices for expensive colleges.

• Download 'Fee details- Government, RajMES Medical Colleges & RUHS-CMS' for government and RajMES fees
• Download 'Fee structure for all available branches and other fee with Hostel Accommodation fee - PRIVATE MEDICAL COLLEGES' for private college fees
• Fees vary by college, speciality, and category (General, OBC, SC, ST)
• Hostel accommodation fees are charged separately
• You must pay the fee during joining; failure to pay results in loss of seat
• Plan your finances before filling choices

Bonds: Service Bond and Surety Bond

All candidates must submit a bond as a condition of admission. The type of bond depends on your employment status.

In-service candidates (government doctors, ASHA workers, ANM, etc.) must submit a service bond. This bond commits you to serve in the government sector for a specified period after completing your postgraduate degree. The format for the service bond is available on the portal under 'Service bond format for study/extraordinary leave (in-service candidates)'. You must fill this form, have it signed by your employer and a notary, and submit it during the joining process.

Non-service candidates (private practitioners, unemployed doctors, etc.) must submit a surety bond. This bond is a financial guarantee that you will complete your course and comply with all regulations. The format for the surety bond is available on the portal under 'PG Surety Bond' and 'Service and Surety Bond for PG Non-Service Candidates'. You must have the bond signed by a surety (typically a senior doctor or a person of standing) and notarized before submission.

Failure to submit a valid bond, or submitting a bond with incorrect details or missing signatures, can result in cancellation of your allotment even after you have been declared allotted. Download the bond formats now, understand the requirements, and arrange for signatures well in advance.

• In-service candidates: download and fill the service bond format; have it signed by your employer and notarized
• Non-service candidates: download and fill the surety bond format; have it signed by a surety and notarized
• Bonds must be submitted during the joining process
• An invalid or incomplete bond can result in cancellation of allotment
• Arrange for signatures and notarization well before the joining deadline

Seat Matrix and Availability: MD, MS, Diploma, and DNB

The Rajasthan NEET PG Board publishes separate seat matrices for MD/MS programmes and for PG Diploma/DNB programmes. These matrices show exactly how many seats are available in each college, speciality, and category for Round 2.

The seat matrix for Round 2 will be published on the portal before the choice-filling window opens. It will show: (1) the name of each college, (2) the speciality (e.g., Anatomy, Pathology, Medicine, Surgery, Pediatrics, etc.), (3) the total number of seats, and (4) the breakdown of seats by category (General, OBC, SC, ST) and quota (Open, State Quota, Competent Authority Quota, etc.).

Study the seat matrix carefully. If a speciality shows zero seats in your category, you cannot be allotted that speciality even if you rank it first. Conversely, if a speciality shows multiple seats in your category, your chances of allotment are higher. Use the seat matrix to make informed choices.

• Download the Round 2 seat matrix from the portal
• Separate matrices are published for MD/MS and for Diploma/DNB
• The matrix shows seats by college, speciality, category, and quota
• Zero seats in your category means you cannot be allotted that speciality
• Use the matrix to prioritize colleges and specialities with available seats in your category

Common Mistakes That Get Applications Rejected

Many candidates lose their seats or face rejection because of preventable errors. Here are the most common mistakes:

1. **Invalid or expired category certificate**: If your OBC, SC, or ST certificate is expired or issued by an unauthorized authority, your category claim will be rejected and you will be treated as General category. This can drastically reduce your chances of allotment. Verify your certificate's validity and issuing authority before registration.

2. **Missing or incomplete surety/service bond**: If you do not submit a bond, or if the bond is missing signatures, notarization, or has incorrect details, your allotment will be cancelled after the result is announced. Download the bond format now and arrange for signatures well in advance.

3. **Incorrect MBBS degree or provisional certificate**: Your MBBS degree certificate or provisional certificate must be issued by your medical college and must clearly state your name, roll number, and the date of issue. A certificate that is illegible, undated, or does not match your name will be rejected.

4. **Missing domicile certificate**: If you are claiming Rajasthan domicile quota but do not have a valid domicile certificate, you will be ineligible for that quota and will be considered under the Open quota, which has fewer seats.

5. **Registering after the deadline**: If you do not register before the choice-filling window closes, you will be automatically excluded from Round 2 allotment. There are no extensions. Register immediately.

6. **Filling choices for colleges you are not eligible for**: If you fill a choice for a college or speciality for which you do not meet the eligibility criteria (e.g., a speciality that requires a specific qualification you do not have), that choice will be ignored during allotment.

7. **Not paying the fee by the joining deadline**: If you are allotted a seat but do not pay the fee by the specified deadline, your seat will be forfeited and offered to the next candidate. Ensure you have funds available.

What Happens After You Register and Fill Choices?

After the choice-filling window closes, the Rajasthan NEET PG Board will run the allotment algorithm. This algorithm matches each candidate to the highest-ranked choice for which they are eligible and for which a seat is available. The algorithm considers your NEET PG score, category, quota, and choice order.

The allotment result will be announced on a date specified in the Round 2 schedule. You will be able to download your allotment letter from the portal using your roll number and password. The allotment letter will state the college, speciality, and seat you have been allotted.

If you are allotted a seat, you must join the college by the specified deadline. Joining involves reporting to the college, submitting original documents, paying the fee, and completing admission formalities. If you do not join by the deadline, your seat will be forfeited.

If you are not allotted a seat in Round 2, you may be eligible for subsequent rounds (if any) or for spot counselling. Check the schedule for information on further rounds.
