If you're a NEET UG 2026 qualified candidate eyeing a private MBBS or BDS seat in Telangana, a key registration window has just opened. Kaloji Narayana Rao University of Health Sciences (KNRUHS), Warangal, has started Round 1 registration for management quota (Category B) and NRI (Category C) seats at private unaided medical and dental colleges in the state. This route is separate from the state's regular convener quota counselling and applies only to private college seats reserved for management and NRI admissions. Missing this window matters because Round 2, if it happens, typically has far fewer seats left to allot.

Eligible Telangana NEET UG 2026 candidates aiming for a private MBBS/BDS seat under management or NRI quota must register on tspvtmedadm.tsche.in between August 13 and 6 PM on August 20, 2026.

What This Counselling Round Covers

This registration is specifically for Category B (management quota) and Category C (NRI quota) seats in Telangana's private unaided medical and dental colleges. It is conducted by KNRUHS, Warangal, and is distinct from the state convener quota counselling that allots government and a portion of private college seats based on merit through the state authority.

Only candidates who have qualified NEET UG 2026 with the required percentile are eligible to apply. This is a fee-paying route, and tuition costs here are noticeably higher than convener quota seats, so families should go in with a clear budget picture.

Key Dates to Track

The registration notification was released on August 12, 2026, with the online form opening the next morning.

Telangana Management Quota MBBS/BDS 2026 — Round 1 Registration Schedule

Who Can Apply: Eligibility Percentiles

Eligibility is based on the NEET UG 2026 qualifying percentile applicable to your category, in line with national norms for the 2026-27 academic session. You must also have completed Class 12 with Physics, Chemistry and Biology, and meet domicile and other conditions specified in the official prospectus.

  • General/EWS category: 50th percentile in NEET UG 2026
  • SC, ST, OBC category: 40th percentile in NEET UG 2026
  • Persons with Disabilities (General): 45th percentile in NEET UG 2026
  • PwD under a reserved category: 40th percentile in NEET UG 2026

Indicative Fee Structure

Annual tuition fees for these seats are set by Telangana's state fee regulatory committee and vary from college to college. As a rough guide, Category B MBBS fees fall in the Rs 11.55 lakh to Rs 14 lakh per year range, while Category C (NRI) MBBS fees run close to double the Category B rate at the same college. BDS fees for both categories follow each college's individually notified structure rather than a single fixed band.

Because the range is wide and college-specific, candidates should verify the exact fee for each college they are interested in from the official prospectus before finalising choices during option entry. Do not rely on averages when planning your budget — a difference of a few lakhs per year across colleges is common.

How to Register: A Practical Checklist

The process is entirely online through the KNRUHS admissions portal. Keep the following documents scanned and ready before you start, since incomplete uploads can delay or invalidate your application.

  • NEET UG 2026 scorecard
  • Class 10 and Class 12 marksheets
  • Transfer certificate
  • Domicile proof
  • Category certificate and PwD certificate, where applicable
  • Visit tspvtmedadm.tsche.in and use the Round 1 registration link for MBBS/BDS management quota
  • Fill personal, academic and NEET UG 2026 details, upload documents, pay the non-refundable processing fee online, and download the confirmation receipt

Why the Deadline Matters for Aspirants

Category B and C seats are the primary way for a NEET-qualified candidate to access a private MBBS or BDS seat in Telangana outside the state convener quota merit list. If you miss the August 20 cut-off, your only fallback is a possible Round 2, which typically has a much smaller pool of vacant seats and less choice of colleges and courses.

After registration closes, watch the portal for the option entry window, the seat matrix (list of available seats by college and course), and the provisional allotment list, which are expected to follow shortly after August 20, 2026.

Frequently asked questions

Who is eligible for Telangana's 2026 management quota MBBS/BDS counselling?

Any NEET UG 2026 qualified candidate who meets the prescribed percentile for their category (50th for General/EWS, 40th for SC/ST/OBC, 45th for PwD-General, 40th for PwD-reserved) and has completed Class 12 with Physics, Chemistry and Biology, subject to domicile and other prospectus conditions.

What is the registration deadline?

The portal tspvtmedadm.tsche.in accepts Round 1 applications from 6 AM on August 13, 2026 to 6 PM on August 20, 2026.

Is this the same as the regular NEET UG state counselling for government colleges?

No. This is a separate KNRUHS-run process specifically for Category B (management) and Category C (NRI) seats in private unaided medical and dental colleges, distinct from convener quota counselling.

How much will the tuition fee be?

Category B MBBS fees indicatively range from about Rs 11.55 lakh to Rs 14 lakh per year, with Category C (NRI) fees roughly double that at the same college. BDS fees vary by college and are notified separately, so check the official prospectus for exact figures.

What documents should I keep ready before registering?

Your NEET UG 2026 scorecard, Class 10 and 12 marksheets, transfer certificate, domicile proof, and category/PwD certificates where applicable — all as scanned copies of the originals.

What happens if I miss the August 20 deadline?

You may still get a chance in a possible Round 2, but historically far fewer seats remain vacant by then, reducing your choice of colleges and courses.

What should I watch for after registration closes?

Keep checking the KNRUHS portal for the option entry (choice-filling) schedule, the seat matrix showing available seats by college, and the provisional seat allotment list, expected soon after August 20, 2026.

If you or your child qualifies for this counselling, don't leave registration to the last day — verify eligibility percentile, gather documents, and compare college-wise fees now. Keep the KNRUHS portal bookmarked for the option entry and allotment schedule that follows the August 20 deadline.
