This is an official notice from KNRUHS listing candidates who were allotted BDS seats under the Competent Authority Quota (CAQ) in the Stray Vacancy Phase of counselling but did not physically report to their allotted colleges within the prescribed deadline. When a candidate is allotted a seat but fails to report, the seat is forfeited and becomes available for the next phase of counselling or for other eligible candidates.
The Competent Authority Quota is a set of BDS seats that the Telangana government fills through its own counselling process, separate from the main NEET-UG merit-based counselling. The Stray Vacancy Phase is the final round of counselling in which remaining unfilled seats are offered to eligible candidates. If your name is on this list, your admission has been cancelled. If you were allotted a seat in this phase and your name is NOT on this list, you have successfully secured your seat by reporting on time.
The 8 candidates who did not report
The following table lists all 8 candidates whose names appear on the not-reported list. Each candidate was allotted a BDS seat under the Competent Authority Quota in Stray Vacancy Phase (Phase 4) but failed to report to their college. The table shows their rank, roll number, name, gender, category, allotted college code, and the course (BDS).

What happens to these candidates now?
Once a candidate's name appears on the not-reported list, their allotted seat is immediately cancelled. They are no longer eligible for admission in the 2026-27 academic year under the Competent Authority Quota counselling process. Their seat becomes available for the next phase of counselling (if any) or may be offered to other eligible candidates on the waiting list.

If a candidate on this list wishes to pursue a BDS seat in Telangana in future years, they will need to participate in the next NEET-UG counselling cycle. There is no appeal or re-allotment process for candidates who fail to report within the deadline. The reporting deadline is strictly enforced to ensure that seats are allocated to candidates who are genuinely ready to join.
What does 'not reported' mean?
'Not reported' means the candidate did not physically visit their allotted college and complete the admission formalities (document verification, fee payment, hostel registration, etc.) within the deadline set by KNRUHS. Even if a candidate was allotted a seat, they must report in person to the college to confirm their admission. Simply being allotted a seat does not guarantee admission — reporting is mandatory.
The reporting deadline for the Stray Vacancy Phase is typically 1–2 days after the allotment list is released. Candidates are expected to check the allotment portal, note their allotted college, and report immediately. If a candidate misses this deadline for any reason — illness, travel, administrative error, or personal circumstances — their seat is forfeited. KNRUHS does not grant extensions or allow late reporting.
Understanding the Competent Authority Quota
The Competent Authority Quota (CAQ) is a set of BDS seats reserved for candidates who meet specific criteria set by the Telangana government. These seats are filled through a separate counselling process managed by KNRUHS, independent of the main NEET-UG merit-based counselling. CAQ seats are typically offered to candidates from specific categories, regions, or backgrounds as per state policy.
In this notice, all 8 candidates were allotted seats under CAQ in the Stray Vacancy Phase. The Stray Vacancy Phase is the final round of counselling in which any remaining unfilled seats (from earlier phases or due to candidate forfeiture) are offered. Candidates in this phase are allotted seats based on their rank and category, but they must report immediately to secure their admission.
What if your name is on this list?
If your name appears on this not-reported list, your BDS seat allotment for 2026-27 has been cancelled. You are no longer eligible for admission under the Competent Authority Quota counselling for this academic year. You cannot appeal or request a second chance to report. Your only option for future admission is to participate in the next NEET-UG counselling cycle (2027 or later).
If you were allotted a seat but could not report due to a genuine emergency (serious illness, accident, family crisis), you should immediately contact KNRUHS to explain your situation. However, the notice does not mention any provision for late reporting or appeals, so contact should be made as soon as possible. Keep all supporting documents (medical certificates, travel records, etc.) ready. In most cases, KNRUHS will not reverse a forfeiture, but it is worth attempting to clarify your circumstances.
What if your name is NOT on this list but you were allotted a seat?

If you were allotted a BDS seat in the Stray Vacancy Phase and your name does NOT appear on this not-reported list, congratulations — you have successfully reported to your college and your admission is confirmed. You should now focus on completing all remaining admission formalities: fee payment, hostel registration, document submission, and any other requirements set by your college.
Check your college's admission portal or contact the college directly to confirm the next steps. You will typically receive an admission letter, hostel allotment (if applicable), and a schedule for orientation or classes. Ensure you meet all deadlines set by your college to avoid any complications with your admission.
What happens to the forfeited seats?
The 8 seats vacated by the not-reported candidates are now available for further counselling. KNRUHS may conduct additional rounds of counselling (if any remain) to fill these seats, or they may be offered to candidates on the waiting list. The exact process depends on KNRUHS's counselling schedule and the number of eligible candidates still waiting for seats.
If you were on the waiting list for a BDS seat under CAQ, you should monitor the KNRUHS counselling portal regularly for updates. KNRUHS typically releases notifications when new rounds of counselling are announced or when waiting list candidates are called for allotment. Do not assume your waiting list position is final — it may improve as seats become available.
Key dates and deadlines to remember
This list was released on 11 November 2026. The reporting deadline for the Stray Vacancy Phase would have been 1–2 days after the allotment list was released (typically around 9–10 November 2026).

There is no further action required from candidates on this not-reported list for the 2026-27 academic year. However, if you are a candidate who was allotted a seat and reported successfully, ensure you complete all college-level admission formalities immediately. If you are on the waiting list, keep your documents ready and check the portal frequently for updates.

What does 'not reported' mean in the context of BDS counselling?
'Not reported' means the candidate was allotted a BDS seat but did not physically visit the college and complete admission formalities (document verification, fee payment, etc.) within the deadline. Simply being allotted a seat is not enough — candidates must report to the college to confirm their admission. Failure to report results in forfeiture of the seat.
If my name is on this list, can I appeal or request a second chance to report?
The notice does not mention any provision for appeals or late reporting. Once your name appears on the not-reported list, your seat is forfeited and you are no longer eligible for admission in 2026-27 under the Competent Authority Quota. You should contact KNRUHS immediately if you have a genuine emergency reason, but reversal is unlikely. Your only option for future admission is to participate in the next NEET-UG counselling cycle.
What happens to the 8 forfeited seats now?
The 8 seats vacated by the not-reported candidates are now available for further counselling rounds or may be offered to candidates on the waiting list. KNRUHS will decide whether to conduct additional counselling rounds or close the process. Monitor the KNRUHS website regularly for announcements about further rounds or waiting list allotments.
I was allotted a seat in Stray Vacancy Phase and reported on time. What should I do now?
If your name is not on the not-reported list, your admission is confirmed. You should now complete all remaining admission formalities with your college: fee payment, hostel registration, document submission, and any other requirements. Contact your college directly to confirm the next steps and deadlines.
I was on the waiting list for a BDS seat. Does this list affect my chances?
Yes, positively. The 8 forfeited seats are now available for further counselling. If KNRUHS conducts additional rounds, your waiting list position may improve and you could be allotted a seat. Monitor the KNRUHS portal daily for announcements about new counselling rounds or waiting list allotments.
What is the Competent Authority Quota (CAQ)?
The Competent Authority Quota is a set of BDS seats reserved and filled by the Telangana government through its own counselling process, separate from the main NEET-UG merit-based counselling. CAQ seats are offered to candidates who meet specific criteria set by the state. All 8 candidates on this list were allotted seats under CAQ.
What is the Stray Vacancy Phase?
The Stray Vacancy Phase is the final round of BDS counselling in which any remaining unfilled seats (from earlier phases or due to candidate forfeiture) are offered to eligible candidates. Candidates in this phase are allotted seats based on their rank and category, but they must report immediately to the college to secure admission.
When was the reporting deadline for the Stray Vacancy Phase?
The notice does not explicitly state the reporting deadline, but it is typically 1–2 days after the allotment list is released. Since the allotment list would have been released around 9–10 November 2026, the reporting deadline was likely 10–11 November 2026. All 8 candidates on this list missed that deadline.
How can I verify if my name is on the not-reported list?
You can search for your name, roll number, or rank in the table provided in this notice. If you find your details, your seat has been forfeited. You can also visit the KNRUHS website (www.knruhs.telangana.gov.in) to download the original PDF and verify. If you have doubts, contact KNRUHS directly.
What should I do if I was allotted a seat but could not report due to an emergency?
Contact KNRUHS immediately and explain your situation with supporting documents (medical certificates, travel records, etc.). While the notice does not mention a provision for late reporting, it is worth attempting to clarify your circumstances. However, in most cases, KNRUHS will not reverse a forfeiture, so your best option is to participate in the next NEET-UG counselling cycle.
Where can I find updates about further counselling rounds or waiting list allotments?
Monitor the KNRUHS official website (www.knruhs.telangana.gov.in) daily for announcements. KNRUHS typically releases notifications about new counselling rounds, waiting list allotments, and other important updates on their portal. You can also contact KNRUHS directly through their helpline or email for updates.
If your name appears on this list, your BDS seat for 2026-27 has been cancelled and you are no longer eligible for admission under the Competent Authority Quota. If your name does not appear and you were allotted a seat, complete all college admission formalities immediately. If you are on the waiting list, monitor the KNRUHS website daily for announcements about further counselling rounds.
