Kaloji Narayana Rao University of Health Sciences (KNRUHS), Telangana has released an official list of 56 MBBS candidates who either did not report to their allotted college during the second phase of counselling or have discontinued their admission under the free exit option for the 2026-27 academic year. This list is critical because these candidates' seats will now be available for reallotment in subsequent counselling rounds or phases. If your name appears on this list, it means your seat has been forfeited and you will not be admitted unless you participate in further counselling rounds. If your name does not appear but you have already reported and joined, this confirms your admission is secure.
56 MBBS candidates have either not reported in Phase 2 or exited under free exit; their seats are now vacant and will be reallocated in the next counselling phase.

Unlock My College ListWhat is this list and why does it matter?
This is an official notice from KNRUHS listing candidates who were allotted MBBS seats under the Competent Authority Quota (CAQ) for 2026-27 but have either not reported to their college or have chosen to exit their admission. The Competent Authority Quota is a set of seats that the Telangana government fills through its own counselling process, separate from the main NEET-UG counselling.
When a candidate is allotted a seat, they must report to the college within a specified time frame to confirm their admission. If they do not report, or if they report but later choose to exit (withdraw) under the free exit option, their seat becomes vacant. This list documents exactly which candidates have done so.
Why this matters to you: if your name is on this list, your admission has been cancelled and you will not be admitted to that college unless you participate in further counselling rounds. If your name is NOT on this list, your admission remains valid. Additionally, the vacant seats from this list will be offered to other eligible candidates in the next phase of counselling, so if you are waiting for a seat, this list signals that more seats may become available.
Who are the candidates on this list?
The list contains 56 candidates across various categories and phases. The candidates are identified by their rank, roll number, name, gender, category (OC, SC, ST, BC, BCA, BCE, BCD, BCB, MSM), allotted college code, and the phase in which they were allotted (P1 or P2).
The list includes candidates from both Phase 1 (P1) and Phase 2 (P2) of counselling. Phase 1 candidates who appear on this list did not report during Phase 1, and Phase 2 candidates did not report during Phase 2 or have exited under free exit. The candidates span multiple reserved categories (SC1, SC2, SC3, ST, BC groups) and the Open category, showing that non-reporting and exits have occurred across all sections of the merit list.
- Total candidates on the list: 56
- Phases represented: Phase 1 (P1) and Phase 2 (P2)
- Categories represented: Open (OC), Scheduled Caste (SC1, SC2, SC3), Scheduled Tribe (ST), and Backward Caste groups (BCA, BCE, BCD, BCB, MSM)
What does 'not reported' mean?
'Not reported' means the candidate was allotted a seat at a specific college but did not physically report to that college within the deadline set by KNRUHS. Reporting is the formal process of presenting yourself at the college, submitting required documents, and confirming your acceptance of the seat. If you do not report by the deadline, your seat is automatically cancelled.
This can happen for several reasons: the candidate may have decided not to pursue MBBS, may have secured admission elsewhere (e.g., through a different counselling process or private college), may have faced logistical or personal issues, or may have simply missed the deadline. Regardless of the reason, non-reporting results in forfeiture of the seat.
- Not reported = did not present yourself at the allotted college by the deadline
- Result: seat is cancelled and becomes available for reallotment
- The candidate cannot claim the seat later unless they participate in a subsequent counselling round
What does 'free exit' mean?

Official 2023–2025 closing ranks and fees, matched to your rank.
'Free exit' is an option that allows a candidate who has already reported and been admitted to withdraw from their seat without penalty. This is typically offered during a specific window in the counselling process to give candidates a chance to reconsider their choice or pursue other opportunities. When a candidate exercises free exit, they voluntarily give up their seat.
Free exit is different from not reporting: a candidate who uses free exit has already joined the college but then chooses to leave. Their seat then becomes available for other candidates. This is a formal, documented withdrawal, not an abandonment.
- Free exit = voluntary withdrawal after reporting and joining
- Allowed during a specified window in the counselling process
- No penalty or forfeiture of future counselling eligibility
- Seat becomes available for reallotment
How to check if your name is on the list
The list is organized by serial number (S.NO) from 1 to 56. Each entry shows the candidate's rank, roll number, name, gender, category, allotted college code, and phase. To find yourself, search by your roll number or name.
The roll number is the unique identifier assigned to you during NEET registration. If you know your roll number, use Ctrl+F (or Cmd+F on Mac) to search the PDF or document for your number. Alternatively, scan through the names if you prefer. The list is sorted by rank, so higher-ranked candidates appear first.
- Search by roll number (most reliable method)
- Search by name if you know it
- Check the phase column (P1 or P2) to see when you were allotted
- Note the college code (ACOL column) to see which college you were allotted to
What happens next if your name is on this list?
If your name appears on this list, your seat has been cancelled. You will not be admitted to the college you were allotted unless you participate in a subsequent counselling round and are allotted again. KNRUHS will release the vacant seats (from this list and others) for reallotment in the next phase of counselling.
You should monitor the KNRUHS website (knruhs.telangana.gov.in) for announcements about the next counselling phase. When the next phase opens, you will be eligible to participate if you meet the eligibility criteria. Your original rank and category remain valid, so you can apply for any available seat in your category or lower categories (if applicable).
Important: do not assume your admission is still active. If you are unsure whether you have been admitted or not, contact your allotted college directly or check the KNRUHS portal for your current admission status.

What happens next if your name is NOT on this list?
If your name does not appear on this list, it means you either reported to your allotted college and have been admitted, or you have not yet been allotted a seat. If you were allotted in Phase 1 or Phase 2 and reported on time, your admission is secure and you should proceed with joining the college.
If you have not yet been allotted a seat (because you were not eligible for Phase 1 or Phase 2, or because your rank was not reached), you remain eligible for the next counselling phase. Continue to monitor the KNRUHS website for announcements about Phase 3 or subsequent rounds.
- If you reported: your admission is confirmed; proceed with joining

Competent Authority Quota explained
The Competent Authority Quota (CAQ) is a set of MBBS seats that the Telangana government reserves and fills through its own counselling process. These seats are separate from the main NEET-UG counselling conducted by the Medical Counselling Committee (MCC) or state authorities. The CAQ is typically used to fill seats at government medical colleges in Telangana.
Candidates who are eligible for CAQ counselling are invited to participate in a separate counselling process. If allotted a seat under CAQ, they must report to the college and follow the same admission procedures as other candidates. The rules for not reporting and free exit apply equally to CAQ candidates.
- CAQ = seats reserved and filled by the Telangana government
- Separate from main NEET-UG counselling
- Typically for government medical colleges in Telangana
- Same admission rules apply (reporting deadline, free exit option, etc.)

See My CollegesFrequently asked questions
What does it mean if my name is on the not reported list?
If your name is on this list, it means you were allotted an MBBS seat under Competent Authority Quota but did not report to the college by the deadline, or you reported and then exited under the free exit option. Your seat has been cancelled. You will not be admitted unless you participate in the next counselling phase and are allotted again.
Can I still get admitted if my name is on this list?
Yes, you can still get admitted if you participate in the next counselling phase. Your rank and category remain valid. When the next phase opens, you will be eligible to apply for available seats. However, you must actively participate in that phase; your previous allotment will not be reinstated.
What is the difference between 'not reported' and 'free exit'?
Not reported means you were allotted a seat but did not present yourself at the college by the deadline. Free exit means you reported to the college, were admitted, but then voluntarily withdrew your admission. Both result in your seat being cancelled and made available for reallotment, but free exit is a formal withdrawal after joining, while not reporting is a failure to report in the first place.
If my name is not on this list, does that mean I am admitted?
If your name is not on this list and you were allotted a seat in Phase 1 or Phase 2, it means you either reported to your college and are admitted, or you have not yet been allotted a seat. Check the KNRUHS portal or contact your allotted college to confirm your current admission status.
When will the next counselling phase be announced?
The exact date for the next counselling phase is not mentioned in this notice. KNRUHS will announce the next phase separately on its official website. Monitor knruhs.telangana.gov.in regularly for updates.
What is Competent Authority Quota?
Competent Authority Quota (CAQ) is a set of MBBS seats that the Telangana government reserves and fills through its own counselling process, separate from the main NEET-UG counselling. These seats are typically at government medical colleges in Telangana. Candidates eligible for CAQ participate in a separate counselling round.
How do I search for my name in this list?

What should I do if I think there is an error in the list?
Contact KNRUHS directly through their official website (knruhs.telangana.gov.in) or reach out to your allotted college. Provide your roll number and name, and explain the issue. Do not rely on unofficial sources; always verify with the official authority.
Does this list affect my eligibility for future counselling rounds?
No. If your name is on this list, your seat has been cancelled, but your eligibility for future counselling rounds remains intact. Your rank and category are still valid, and you can participate in the next phase of counselling.
What colleges are represented in this list?

If I did not report, can I explain why and get my seat back?
This notice does not mention any appeal or review process for non-reporting. Once your seat is cancelled, it is reallocated to other candidates. Your best option is to participate in the next counselling phase. If you have a genuine reason for not reporting (e.g., medical emergency), contact KNRUHS directly to inquire about any possible remedies, but there is no guarantee of reinstatement.
What happens to the vacant seats from this list?
The vacant seats from this list will be reallocated in the next phase of counselling. KNRUHS will release a new merit list or allotment for Phase 3 (or the next available phase), and eligible candidates will be offered these seats based on their rank and category.

Monitor the KNRUHS website (knruhs.telangana.gov.in) for the announcement of the next counselling phase and participate to secure a seat.
