The Directorate of Medical Education (DME), Tripura, has published the Round 1 seat matrix for NEET-PG 2026 counselling on its official portal. The matrix shows the number of MD and MS seats available at Tripura's government medical colleges, broken down by speciality and reservation category (UR, SC, ST, OBC). This document is essential for any NEET-PG qualified candidate with a Tripura domicile or eligible under state rules, as it determines which specialities and seats you can actually apply for during choice filling. The matrix covers only state-quota seats; the remaining 50% of government PG seats are filled through the All India Quota by the Medical Counselling Committee (MCC) separately.
Download the Round 1 seat matrix from trmcc.admissions.nic.in and identify which MD/MS specialities have seats in your reservation category before you register and fill your choices.

Unlock My College ListWhat is the Tripura NEET-PG Round 1 Seat Matrix and why does it matter?
The seat matrix is an official document that lists every MD and MS speciality seat available in Tripura's government medical colleges during Round 1 of counselling. Each seat is tagged with a reservation category: Unreserved (UR), Scheduled Caste (SC), Scheduled Tribe (ST), or Other Backward Class (OBC). This matrix is the definitive record of what is actually on offer; if a speciality does not appear in the matrix for your category, it cannot be allotted to you, no matter how high your NEET-PG rank.
For a NEET-PG aspirant, the seat matrix is your roadmap. It prevents you from wasting preference choices on specialities that have no seats in your category. Many candidates fill choices blindly and later discover their preferred branch had zero seats reserved for them. By studying the matrix first, you can make informed, strategic choices that align with actual seat availability and your rank.
Which colleges and specialities are included in Tripura's Round 1 matrix?
The Round 1 seat matrix covers two government medical colleges in Tripura: Agartala Government Medical College (AGMC) and GBP Hospital, and Tripura Medical College. Both institutions offer MD (Doctor of Medicine) and MS (Master of Surgery) seats across various specialities. AGMC offers both clinical and pre-clinical MD and MS seats, while Tripura Medical College lists seats in selected MD and MS branches.
The matrix does not include private medical colleges or seats outside the state quota. Private institutions in Tripura may conduct their own counselling or admissions process, which is separate from this state-run NEET-PG counselling. Similarly, the 50% All India Quota seats at these colleges are filled by the MCC through a national merit list, not by DME Tripura.
- Agartala Government Medical College and GBP Hospital: clinical and pre-clinical MD and MS seats
- Tripura Medical College: selected MD and MS specialities
- Seats shown under UR, SC, ST, and OBC categories

Eligibility and who can participate in Tripura NEET-PG Round 1
To participate in Tripura NEET-PG counselling, you must have qualified the NEET-PG 2026 examination and meet the eligibility criteria outlined in the Information Bulletin published by DME Tripura. DME Tripura has already released a list of NEET-PG candidates with a Tripura permanent address; you should verify that your name appears on this list.
Eligibility typically includes domicile requirements (Tripura permanent address or other state-specific rules), valid NEET-PG scorecard, educational qualifications (MBBS degree), and payment of the counselling fee. The Information Bulletin contains the complete rules on domicile, document requirements, and fees. Read it carefully before registering, as missing any requirement could disqualify you from the counselling process.
- Must have qualified NEET-PG 2026
- Must meet domicile and eligibility criteria in the Information Bulletin

State quota vs. All India Quota: what's the difference?
Every kind of PG seat, one rank
See the real seats your NEET-PG rank can reach.
Under national PG medical education rules, 50% of government PG seats are reserved for the All India Quota (AIQ) and 50% for the state quota. The seat matrix released by DME Tripura covers only the state-quota seats. These are filled by DME Tripura through its own counselling process, based on merit within Tripura's eligible candidate pool.
The remaining 50% AIQ seats are filled by the Medical Counselling Committee (MCC) through a separate national-level counselling process. If you are a Tripura domicile but also eligible for AIQ counselling, you may participate in both processes. However, the seat matrix you are looking at now applies only to the state-quota round. Do not assume that a speciality with no state-quota seats is unavailable; it may be available through AIQ counselling.
- State quota (50%): filled by DME Tripura, listed in this matrix
- All India Quota (50%): filled by MCC, separate counselling process
- Tripura domiciles can participate in both state and AIQ counselling
- This matrix covers state-quota seats only
What to do before and during choice filling
Before you register for counselling, gather all required documents: your NEET-PG scorecard, MBBS degree certificate, domicile certificate (if required), and any other documents specified in the Information Bulletin. Verify your name on the Tripura NEET-PG candidates list. Download and study the Round 1 seat matrix, and mark the specialities that have seats in your category.
During choice filling, enter your preferences in order of priority. You can typically fill multiple choices, and the system will allot you the highest-ranked speciality for which you are eligible based on your rank and the available seats. Do not fill choices for specialities that have no seats in your category; these will be wasted. After choice filling closes, watch for the merit list and provisional allotment result on the portal.

What happens after Round 1: merit list, allotment, and future rounds
After the choice-filling deadline, DME Tripura will prepare a merit list based on NEET-PG scores and the choices you have filled. A provisional allotment result will then be published, showing which candidate has been allotted which seat. If you are allotted a seat, you will need to report to the college and complete admission formalities. If you are not allotted in Round 1, you may be eligible for subsequent rounds (Round 2, mop-up, etc.), depending on the counselling schedule.
Seat matrices for later rounds will also be published on trmcc.admissions.nic.in as they become available. These may show different seat numbers if some candidates have joined or vacated seats. Keep monitoring the portal for updates on Round 2 and any mop-up rounds. The entire counselling process typically spans several weeks, so patience and regular portal checks are essential.

Where can I download the Tripura NEET-PG Round 1 seat matrix?
The seat matrix is available on the official Tripura PG counselling portal at trmcc.admissions.nic.in. Navigate to the PG Counselling section and click on 'Seat Matrix for Round-1 of Tripura Postgraduate Medical Counselling 2026'. The PDF will open in a new tab and can be downloaded.
What does the seat matrix tell me about my chances of getting a particular speciality?
The seat matrix shows how many seats are available in each MD and MS speciality at each college, broken down by reservation category (UR, SC, ST, OBC). If your category has seats in a speciality, you are eligible to apply for it. If your category has zero seats in a speciality, you cannot be allotted that speciality in Round 1, regardless of your rank. The matrix does not predict your exact allotment; that depends on your rank, your choices, and the ranks of other candidates.
I am a Tripura domicile but also eligible for All India Quota counselling. Does this seat matrix apply to me?
This seat matrix applies only to the state-quota seats (50% of government PG seats) filled by DME Tripura. The remaining 50% All India Quota seats are filled by the Medical Counselling Committee (MCC) through a separate national counselling process. You can participate in both, but this matrix covers only the state-quota round. Check the MCC portal for AIQ seat availability.
What if a speciality I want has no seats in my reservation category?
If a speciality has no seats in your category in the state-quota matrix, you cannot be allotted that speciality in Tripura's Round 1 counselling. However, it may be available through the All India Quota (MCC counselling) or in later rounds if seats become vacant. Do not waste a choice on a speciality with no seats in your category; instead, fill choices for specialities that do have seats available for you.
When should I fill my choices, and what is the deadline?
The exact dates for choice filling are specified in the revised Round 1 schedule released by DME Tripura on 5 November 2026. You must follow only the revised schedule, not any earlier announcements. Check trmcc.admissions.nic.in regularly for the exact registration and choice-filling dates. Missing the deadline will disqualify you from Round 1.
What documents do I need to register for Tripura NEET-PG counselling?
You will need your NEET-PG scorecard, MBBS degree certificate, and any other documents specified in the Information Bulletin published by DME Tripura (released 31 October 2026). Domicile requirements and additional documents are detailed in the bulletin. Verify that your name appears on the Tripura NEET-PG candidates list (released 12 October 2026) before registering.

The Round 1 seat matrix covers two government medical colleges: Agartala Government Medical College (AGMC) and GBP Hospital, and Tripura Medical College. Both offer MD and MS seats across various specialities. Private colleges and seats outside the state quota are not included in this matrix.
What happens if I am not allotted a seat in Round 1?
If you are not allotted in Round 1, you may be eligible for Round 2 or a mop-up round, depending on the counselling schedule. Seat matrices for later rounds will be published on trmcc.admissions.nic.in. Keep monitoring the portal for updates and deadlines for subsequent rounds.
Download the Round 1 seat matrix now, identify the specialities available in your category, and prepare your choice list before the registration deadline.
