The Special Stray Vacancy Round is Tripura's final counselling phase for undergraduate medical and dental seats. It exists to fill seats that remained vacant after the regular stray round closed. 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 resigned from it, you cannot register afresh for this round. Similarly, if you registered in a previous round, your earlier registration will not carry forward—you must complete a fresh registration on the TRMCC portal.
Key Dates and Deadlines You Must Know
The counselling process follows a strict timeline. 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. Choice filling began on 5 November 2026 at 3:00 PM and must be locked by 9 November 2026 at 5:00 PM.

What Documents and Information You Need Ready
Before you begin registration, gather all required documents. You will need your NEET UG 2026 scorecard, a valid domicile certificate proving your Tripura residency, and an identity proof (such as Aadhaar, passport, or voter ID). Having these documents scanned or photographed will speed up the process.
You should also have the counselling fee amount ready and access to an online payment method. Review the seat matrix and cutoff scores on the TRMCC portal before you start choice filling so you can make informed decisions about which colleges and courses to select.
- NEET UG 2026 scorecard
- Domicile certificate for Tripura
- Valid identity proof (Aadhaar, passport, voter ID)
- Counselling fee (amount to be confirmed on portal)
- Online payment method (debit card, credit card, net banking, UPI)
Understanding the Seat Matrix and Cutoff Scores
Before you lock your choices, you must check the official seat matrix on the TRMCC portal. This matrix shows which colleges have vacant MBBS and BDS seats, how many seats are available in each category, and the cutoff scores for each college and course. Only seats listed as vacant will be offered in this round.
Every kind of MBBS/BDS seat, one rank
See the real seats your NEET rank can reach.
Cutoff scores vary by college, course, and category. Compare your NEET UG score against the cutoffs to identify colleges where you have a realistic chance of admission. Choosing colleges where your score falls well above the cutoff increases your likelihood of allotment. The portal will display this information clearly—take time to review it before making your final choices.
Why This Is Your Final Opportunity in Tripura
This Special Stray Vacancy Round is the last counselling phase for Tripura state quota MBBS and BDS seats in the 2026 admission cycle. After 16 November 2026, no further rounds will be conducted. If you do not secure a seat in this round, you will not be able to obtain a medical seat in Tripura for the 2026 session through NEET UG counselling.
This makes the round critical for candidates who have not yet been allotted a seat or who wish to upgrade to a better college. The stakes are high, so ensure you complete every step on time and make your choices carefully.
What Happens After You Lock Your Choices
Once you lock your choices by 9 November 2026 at 5:00 PM, the TRMCC will process the allotments using a merit-based algorithm. Your NEET UG score, your choice order, and the availability of seats will determine which college and course you are allotted. The result will be declared on 10 November 2026 on the TRMCC portal.
After the result is announced, you must collect your nomination letter from the DME office between 11 and 16 November 2026. This letter is your proof of allotment and is required to join the college. You must then report to your allotted college by 16 November 2026 to complete the admission process. Failure to join by this date will result in forfeiture of your seat.
Common Mistakes to Avoid During Registration
Many candidates make preventable errors during counselling. Do not assume your earlier registration will carry forward—you must register fresh for this round. Do not miss the choice-filling deadline; once 9 November 2026 at 5:00 PM passes, you cannot modify your choices. Do not forget to lock your choices; if you fill choices but do not lock them, they will not be considered.
Avoid choosing colleges where your score is far below the cutoff, as your chances of allotment will be minimal. Conversely, do not be overly conservative; include colleges where your score is competitive. Finally, do not delay collecting your nomination letter or joining your college; missing the 16 November deadline will cost you your seat.
