The Tripura Medical Counselling Committee (TRMCC) has launched the Special Stray Vacancy Round for NEET UG 2026, marking the final opportunity for candidates to secure remaining MBBS and BDS seats under the state's 85 per cent quota. This round fills vacancies that persisted after the regular stray round concluded. If you are a NEET-qualified Tripura domicile candidate who has not yet been allotted a seat, this is your last chance to apply—no further counselling rounds will follow after 16 November 2026.
Register fresh on trmcc.admissions.nic.in by 9 November 2026 at noon to compete for the final batch of MBBS and BDS seats in Tripura; allotment results will be declared on 10 November.

The Special Stray Vacancy Round is Tripura's final counselling phase for undergraduate medical and dental seats. It exists to fill MBBS and BDS positions that remained vacant after the regular stray round ended. Only candidates who have qualified NEET UG 2026 and hold bona fide domicile status in Tripura are eligible to apply.
Importantly, if you were already allotted a seat in an earlier round and have not formally resigned from it, you cannot register afresh for this round. The portal will require you to provide your NEET UG roll number, personal details, and proof of domicile residence. This is a completely fresh registration—your earlier counselling data will not carry forward.
Critical Dates and Timeline for Registration and Allotment
The registration window is extremely tight. Fresh registration, fee payment, and final submission opened on 4 November 2026 at 2:00 PM and will close on 9 November 2026 at 12:00 noon.

Step-by-Step Registration Process on the TRMCC Portal

Official 2023–2025 closing ranks and fees, matched to your rank.
Begin by visiting the official TRMCC portal at trmcc.admissions.nic.in. Look for the Special Stray Vacancy Round registration link and click it. You will be asked to enter your NEET UG 2026 roll number, along with your personal details and proof of domicile residence (such as a state domicile certificate or relevant government document).
After filling in your details, you must pay the counselling fee through the available online payment modes (typically credit card, debit card, or net banking). Once payment is confirmed, proceed to choice filling. Here, you will select your preferred colleges and courses from the available vacant seats shown in the official seat matrix. Lock your choices carefully before the 5:00 PM deadline on 9 November. Finally, submit your application and download the confirmation page for your records.
- Visit trmcc.admissions.nic.in and click the Special Stray Vacancy Round link
- Enter NEET UG roll number, personal details, and domicile proof
- Pay the counselling fee online
- Fill and lock your choice of colleges and courses
- Submit the application and save the confirmation page
Understanding the Seat Matrix and Cutoff Before Choosing
Before you lock your choices, you must review the official seat matrix and cutoff details published on the TRMCC portal. The seat matrix shows exactly which colleges have vacant MBBS and BDS seats available in this round, broken down by category (general, OBC, SC, ST, etc.). Only seats marked as vacant in this matrix will be offered during allotment.
Check the cutoff scores for each college and course combination. Your NEET UG score must meet or exceed the cutoff for that seat to be eligible for allotment. Reviewing this information before choice filling helps you make realistic selections and increases your chances of securing a seat. Do not assume seats are available—always cross-check the official matrix.
Why This Is Your Final Opportunity for a Tripura Medical Seat
This Special Stray Vacancy Round is explicitly the last counselling phase for Tripura's state quota MBBS and BDS seats in the 2026 admission cycle. After 16 November 2026, no further rounds will be conducted. If you miss this window, you will not be able to secure a medical seat in Tripura for this academic year.
Candidates who have not been allotted a seat through earlier rounds, or who did not participate in previous phases, now have one final chance. The stakes are high: this is the difference between joining a medical college in 2026 or waiting another year. Treat every deadline as non-negotiable.
Documents and Fees You Must Prepare Now
Every kind of MBBS/BDS seat, one rank

Gather all required documents before you begin registration. You will need your NEET UG 2026 scorecard (with your roll number clearly visible), a valid domicile certificate issued by the Tripura government or relevant authority, and a government-issued identity proof (Aadhaar, passport, or voter ID). Having these ready will speed up your registration and reduce the risk of errors.
Arrange the counselling fee in advance. The exact amount will be displayed on the portal during registration. Most candidates pay online via debit card, credit card, or net banking. Do not wait until the last moment to arrange funds—payment delays could cause you to miss the registration deadline.
- NEET UG 2026 scorecard with roll number
- Tripura domicile certificate
- Government-issued identity proof (Aadhaar, passport, or voter ID)
- Counselling fee (amount to be confirmed on portal)
What Happens After You Lock Your Choices?
Once you lock your choices by 9 November 2026 at 5:00 PM, the TRMCC system will process all applications and run the seat allotment algorithm. The allotment result will be declared on 10 November 2026. You must log back into the portal on that date to check whether you have been allotted a seat and, if so, which college and course.
If you are allotted a seat, you will receive a nomination letter. Collect this letter from the DME office between 11 and 16 November 2026. Present the nomination letter and your original documents to the allotted college by 16 November 2026 to complete your admission. If you do not join by this date, your seat will be cancelled and offered to the next candidate on the waitlist.
Common Mistakes to Avoid During Registration
Do not delay registration until the last day. The portal may experience high traffic on 9 November, and technical glitches could prevent you from submitting your application in time. Register and pay your fee at least 24 hours before the deadline.
Ensure your NEET UG roll number is entered correctly. Any mismatch will cause your application to be rejected. Double-check your personal details, especially your name and date of birth, as they appear on your NEET scorecard. Incorrect domicile proof or an expired identity document will also lead to rejection. Review all information before final submission.
- Register early; do not wait until 9 November
- Verify your NEET UG roll number is correct
- Ensure personal details match your NEET scorecard exactly
- Confirm your domicile certificate is valid and acceptable
- Lock choices carefully; you cannot change them after 5:00 PM on 9 November
