The Tripura Medical Counselling Committee (TRMCC) has rescheduled the Stray Vacancy Round choice filling window to begin on October 21, 2026 at 3:00 PM on its official portal. This is the final counselling stage for NEET UG 2026 aspirants in Tripura seeking MBBS or BDS seats that remain unfilled after the earlier three rounds of counselling. Candidates who did not secure a seat in previous rounds or who declined their allotment now have one last opportunity to participate in this state-level admission process. Missing this window means losing access to Tripura's state quota medical seats for the current academic session.
If you are a NEET UG 2026 candidate in Tripura without a seat, log in to trmcc.admissions.nic.in from 3:00 PM today (October 21) to fill and lock your MBBS or BDS preferences before the deadline—this is your final chance.

The Stray Vacancy Round is the last counselling stage conducted by Tripura's state medical admission authority. It fills MBBS and BDS seats that remain vacant after the completion of Round 1, Round 2, and Round 3 counselling. Any seat not filled by the end of this round typically lapses for the academic session, making it a critical final opportunity.
To be eligible, you must have registered on the TRMCC portal, hold a valid NEET UG 2026 scorecard, and either have not received a seat in earlier rounds or have declined your previous allotment. The committee will verify your registration status and NEET eligibility before allowing you to participate. If you were allotted a seat in an earlier round but did not report to the college, check the official notification to confirm your current status before attempting to fill choices.

The entire choice-filling process is conducted online through the TRMCC portal. You will need your NEET UG 2026 roll number and your TRMCC registration credentials (registration ID and password) to log in.

What to do if you face technical problems during choice filling
If you encounter any technical issue while filling or locking your choices, contact the TRMCC helpdesk immediately at trmcc.neet@gmail.com. Include your NEET UG roll number, All India Rank (AIR), and a valid contact number in your email so the committee can assist you quickly. Do not wait until the last hour to seek help, as portal traffic typically increases significantly as the deadline approaches, which can slow down both the website and email response times.
You also have the option to visit the Directorate of Medical Education office in Agartala in person for on-site technical support. Staff there can help you complete your choice filling if you are unable to do so online. Plan your visit well in advance of the deadline to avoid last-minute rush and ensure you have adequate time to complete the process.

Why the Stray Round is your last chance for a Tripura medical seat
Every kind of MBBS/BDS seat, one rank
See the real seats your NEET rank can reach.
After the Stray Vacancy Round concludes, any remaining unfilled MBBS or BDS seats in Tripura's state quota typically lapse and are not carried forward to the next academic session. This means if you do not secure a seat through this round, you will not have another opportunity to join a government or state-affiliated medical college in Tripura for the 2026-27 batch. Your only alternative would be to apply to private medical colleges or consider admissions in other states, both of which may involve different eligibility criteria and fee structures.
The Stray Round is designed to give candidates who missed earlier rounds or who declined their allotment one final opportunity to participate in the state counselling process. Treating this round seriously and submitting your choices thoughtfully is essential. Many candidates secure seats in this round because they either did not participate earlier or because they now have a clearer picture of available options and can make more informed choices.

What happens after you lock your choices?
After the choice-filling window closes, the TRMCC will process all submitted preferences using a merit-based allocation algorithm. Your NEET UG rank, your choice order, and the availability of seats will determine your allotment. The committee will then release the Stray Round seat allotment result on the portal, typically within a few days of the choice-filling deadline.
Once the allotment is announced, you must check the portal to see if you have been allotted a seat and which college and course you have been assigned. If you receive an allotment, you will be given a specific reporting date and a list of documents you must bring to the college (such as your NEET scorecard, 10th and 12th mark sheets, caste certificate if applicable, and other identity proofs). Failing to report within the specified timeframe will result in cancellation of your seat, and it will not be reallocated.
