If you're a NEET UG 2026 qualifier hoping for a state quota MBBS, BDS, BHMS, BAMS or BASLP seat in Tripura, take note: the Directorate of Medical Education (DME), Tripura has pushed back the Round 1 registration deadline for its counselling process. The revised schedule was notified on August 20, 2026, after registrations had opened on August 18, 2026 at 3 PM. The extension covers not just registration but also fee payment and choice filling — the three steps candidates must complete before seats can be allotted. This matters directly to aspirants and parents in Tripura who may still be arranging documents like the Permanent Resident Certificate (PRC) or category certificates.
Tripura NEET UG 2026 Round 1 counselling registration, fee payment and choice filling have all received extra time — check the TRMCC portal for the exact revised date and complete every step before it closes.
What exactly changed
The Tripura Medical Counselling Committee (TRMCC), which runs state quota admissions under DME Tripura, opened Round 1 registration on August 18, 2026. Two days later, on August 20, 2026, it issued a revised notification extending that window rather than closing it on the originally planned date.
The extension isn't limited to the registration form alone — it also gives extra time for paying the registration fee and for filling and locking college/course choices. This is useful because these three steps are usually sequential, and a delay in one (say, waiting for a certificate) can otherwise cost a candidate the entire cycle.
Courses and who can apply
TRMCC counselling covers five programmes under the state quota: MBBS, BDS, BHMS (homoeopathy), BAMS (Ayurveda) and BASLP (audiology and speech-language pathology). All applicants must have a valid NEET UG 2026 qualifying score.
For state quota seats, candidates need a valid Tripura Permanent Resident Certificate (PRC), or must otherwise meet DME Tripura's domicile rules if they don't hold a PRC directly.
Fees and money to keep ready
Registration fees are category-based and range from roughly Rs 1,800 to Rs 2,500. Separately, candidates must pay a security deposit that varies sharply by seat type and category — anywhere from Rs 5,000 up to Rs 1,00,000. Families should check the exact applicable amount for their category and course before payment, since this is a much larger sum than the registration fee and needs to be arranged in advance.
Payments can be made online via net banking, debit card, credit card or UPI.
Documents you'll be asked to upload
Registration is entirely online at trmcc.admissions.nic.in, and candidates must scan and upload documents at this stage itself — not later at reporting.
- NEET UG 2026 scorecard and admit card
- Class 10 and Class 12 (H.S./+2) mark sheets
- Age proof and Tripura Permanent Resident Certificate
- Category certificate — SC, ST, OBC-NCL, EWS or WESM, if applicable
- Disability certificate from a competent authority, if applicable
- Passport-size photograph and scanned signature
Registration steps and rules to watch
The process is straightforward but a few rules matter. Each candidate is allowed only one registration on the portal — attempting to register more than once under different categories will get the extra entries rejected. Documents uploaded now are verified for authenticity at the time of physical reporting later, so uploading anything inaccurate can cause problems even after allotment.
- Visit trmcc.admissions.nic.in and open the UG Counselling section
- Register using your NEET UG 2026 roll number and personal details
- Fill the form and upload all required documents
- Pay the registration fee online
- Pay the applicable security deposit
- Download and safely keep the confirmation slip
What comes after registration closes
Once the extended window shuts, candidates move to choice filling and locking — ranking preferred colleges and courses in priority order. TRMCC then allots seats based on NEET rank and the choices submitted, and selected candidates receive an online allotment letter.
Anyone allotted a seat must report physically to the assigned institute with original documents and the allotment letter within the given timeline. Missing this reporting window can lead to the seat being cancelled — so this deadline deserves as much attention as the registration one.
