This is not a warning for tomorrow — reporting must happen today. Any candidate who fails to report by end of business today will face serious consequences: a bond penalty of ₹10 lakh (or the course fee, whichever is higher) will be imposed. If you have received a stray vacancy allotment, you must act immediately.
Today (26 October 2026) is the absolute final deadline to report at SMS Medical College Jaipur for stray vacancy allotted seats; failure to report triggers a ₹10 lakh bond penalty.

Unlock My College ListWhat is the stray vacancy round and why does it matter?
The stray vacancy round is the final counselling round in Rajasthan's NEET UG 2026 admission process. It fills seats that remain vacant after the main three rounds of counselling (Round 1, Round 2, and Round 3). These are genuine medical and dental college seats — MBBS and BDS — that candidates can secure if they meet the eligibility criteria and report on time.
The stray vacancy round is your last chance to secure a seat in this admission cycle. Once this round closes and reporting deadlines pass, no further counselling rounds are held. This makes today's deadline non-negotiable.
Who must report today?
You must report today if you received an allotment letter in the stray vacancy round. Your allotment would have been communicated through the official Rajasthan NEET UG portal (ug.neetrajasthan.com). Check the provisional stray vacancy allotment lists released on 22 October 2026 (initial allotment) and 24 October 2026 (revised allotment after weeding out MCC-stray vacancy allotted candidates).
If your name appears on either of these lists and you have not yet reported, you must go to SMS Medical College Jaipur today. Reporting means physically presenting yourself at the college's academic block desk with all required documents and completing the admission formalities.

When you report, bring all required documents (see the 'Documents required' section below). You will complete an application form and sign an undertaking (Proforma-7) at the college desk. This is a one-day, in-person process — there is no online reporting option for the stray vacancy round.
- Location: SMS Medical College Jaipur, Academic Block Desk
- Reporting is in-person only; no online option
- Bring all required documents (see below)
- Complete application form and undertaking (Proforma-7) at the desk
Documents required at reporting
The notice references a detailed document list published separately (titled 'LIST OF DOCUMENTS BOND AND APPLICABLE ANNEXURES FOR STRAY VACANCY ROUND PARTICIPATION 18th to 20th October 2026'). While the full list is not reproduced in this notice, standard documents for NEET UG counselling reporting in Rajasthan include: NEET admit card, NEET score card, 10th and 12th mark sheets and certificates, Aadhaar card, caste/category certificate (if applicable), domicile certificate, medical fitness certificate, and passport-sized photographs.
The notice specifically mentions that candidates must bring the application form and undertaking (Proforma-7). It is critical that you obtain and review the complete document list from the official portal or by contacting SMS Medical College before you report, as missing even one document can result in rejection of your admission.
- NEET admit card and score card
- 10th and 12th mark sheets and certificates
- Aadhaar card
- Caste/category certificate (if applicable)
- Domicile certificate
- Medical fitness certificate
- Passport-sized photographs
- Application form (to be filled at college desk)
- Undertaking (Proforma-7)
- Refer to the detailed document list on ug.neetrajasthan.com for the complete checklist
The bond penalty for non-reporting
This is the most critical consequence of missing today's deadline. The notice explicitly states: 'In case of Nonreporting, BOND conditions shall be applicable. Fee for all course/Rs. 10 lakh whichever is more.' This means if you do not report by end of today, you will be liable to pay a bond penalty of ₹10 lakh or the full course fee for the allotted course, whichever is higher.
This bond is a financial penalty imposed by the government and is separate from any course fees. It is a punitive measure to ensure that candidates who are allotted seats take them seriously. Once imposed, this bond becomes a legal liability and can affect your future admissions, loans, and other official processes. There is no waiver or exemption mentioned in the notice.
- Non-reporting triggers a bond penalty of ₹10 lakh or course fee, whichever is higher
- This is a legal financial liability, not a refundable deposit
- The bond applies to all courses (MBBS and BDS)
- No exemptions or waivers are mentioned
What if you cannot report today?
The notice provides no provision for extension or postponement of the reporting deadline. Today is stated as the final date with no mention of any appeal process or grace period. However, in exceptional circumstances (medical emergency, death in family, natural disaster), you should immediately contact the Rajasthan NEET UG Board office or SMS Medical College to explain your situation and seek guidance. Document any emergency with proof (medical certificate, death certificate, etc.).

Do not assume that non-reporting will be forgiven or that you can report later. The bond penalty is automatic and applies unless you have an officially documented and approved exemption. If you are unable to report, contact the authorities immediately — waiting until after today will not help your case.
- No automatic extension is mentioned in the notice
- Contact SMS Medical College or the Rajasthan NEET UG Board immediately if you have a genuine emergency
- Provide documentary proof of the emergency
- Do not delay — contact authorities today, not after the deadline
Important notes on the stray vacancy allotment
The notice mentions that the stray vacancy allotment is 'provisional, indicative and subject to change/correction pursuant to document verification, grievance redressal, and the decision of the Hon'ble High Court of Rajasthan in Civil Writ Petition (SBCWP) No. 21485/2026.' This means that even if you are allotted a seat, it is not final until document verification is complete and any legal challenges are resolved.
The revised allotment list released on 24 October 2026 was updated 'after weeding MCC-stray vacancy allotted candidate' — meaning candidates who were allotted seats through the national-level MCC stray vacancy process were removed from the state list to avoid duplicate allotments. Always check the latest allotment list before reporting.
- Allotment is provisional and subject to document verification
- Allotment may be subject to High Court decisions in ongoing petitions
- Check the latest revised allotment list (24 Oct 2026) before reporting
- MCC-allotted candidates have been removed from the state stray vacancy list
