The Tripura Medical Counselling Committee has released the provisional merit list for Round 2 of NEET UG 2026 counselling on September 14, 2026. If you are a Tripura domicile candidate who qualified NEET UG and registered for state quota counselling, this is a critical moment: the window to fill and lock your college and course preferences closes today at 10 AM. Missing this deadline could mean losing your chance at a government MBBS or BDS seat in this round. This guide explains who is eligible, how to check the merit list, and what you must do before the clock runs out.
Tripura NEET UG Round 2 choice filling ends today (September 14, 2026) at 10 AM on trmcc.admissions.nic.in—log in immediately, verify your merit list status, and lock your college preferences before the deadline or risk losing your seat allocation.
What Happened: Merit List Released, Choice Window Closing Today
On September 14, 2026, the Tripura Medical Counselling Committee (TRMCC), operating under the Directorate of Medical Education, Government of Tripura, published the provisional merit list for Round 2 state quota counselling. The merit list contains the names and ranks of all candidates who registered for Round 2 and are eligible to participate in seat allocation.
The same day marks the final deadline for choice filling: 10 AM on September 14, 2026. This is not a soft deadline or a guideline—once the clock strikes 10 AM, the portal will close and no further changes to your preferences will be accepted. Candidates who have not yet locked their choices must act immediately.
Who Can Participate in Tripura Round 2 Counselling
Not every NEET UG 2026 candidate is eligible for Tripura state quota counselling. The TRMCC has set clear eligibility criteria that you must meet to participate in Round 2 seat allocation.
You must have qualified the NEET UG 2026 examination conducted by the National Testing Agency (NTA). You must hold a valid Permanent Resident Certificate (PRC) of Tripura—this is a domicile requirement and cannot be waived. You must have selected Tripura as your applying state during your NEET UG 2026 registration. Finally, you must have completed the Round 2 online registration on the TRMCC portal. If you meet all four conditions, you are eligible to fill choices and participate in seat allotment.
- Qualified NEET UG 2026 (conducted by NTA)
- Hold a valid Permanent Resident Certificate (PRC) of Tripura
- Selected Tripura as applying state during NEET registration
- Completed Round 2 online registration on TRMCC portal
How to Check Your Name on the Merit List
The merit list is available on the official TRMCC portal at trmcc.admissions.nic.in. Follow these steps to locate your name and verify your eligibility status.
Visit trmcc.admissions.nic.in and navigate to the UG Counselling section. Look for the notification titled 'Round 2 Provisional Merit List' and open it. The merit list is typically published as a PDF document. Search for your NEET roll number or rank within the PDF using your browser's search function (Ctrl+F or Cmd+F).

Understanding the Seat Matrix and Available Colleges
Round 2 counselling covers MBBS and BDS seats under the 85% state quota. This means 85% of seats in government medical and dental colleges in Tripura are reserved for candidates who meet the state domicile requirement. The remaining 15% are typically allocated through other channels (such as central pool or management quota).
The TRMCC has released a separate seat matrix document on the official portal that lists all participating government medical and dental colleges, the number of MBBS and BDS seats available at each institution, and any category-wise breakdowns (General, OBC, SC, ST). Before you fill your choices, download and carefully study this seat matrix. Understand which colleges are participating, how many seats are available, and whether seats match your category. This information is crucial for making informed preference selections.
- Round 2 covers 85% state quota MBBS and BDS seats
- Participating government medical and dental colleges in Tripura
- Seat matrix available separately on TRMCC portal
- Check category-wise seat availability before filling choices
How to Fill and Lock Your College Preferences Before 10 AM
Filling choices is a two-step process: first you select your preferences, then you lock them. Once locked, your choices cannot be edited, so take time to think carefully before finalizing.
Log in to the TRMCC counselling portal using your registered credentials (typically your NEET roll number and password). You will see a list of available colleges and courses. Select colleges and courses in order of your preference—rank them from your most preferred to your least preferred. The order matters: the seat allotment algorithm will try to allocate you a seat at the highest-ranked college on your list where you are eligible and where a seat is available. After you have arranged all your choices in the desired order, review them carefully. Once you are satisfied, click the 'Lock' or 'Submit' button. After locking, you cannot make any changes. The deadline is 10 AM on September 14, 2026. Do not wait until the last minute; portal traffic often increases near the deadline and may cause delays or technical issues.
- Log in with registered credentials
- Select colleges and courses in order of preference
- Rank from most to least preferred
- Review all choices carefully before locking
- Click Lock/Submit button to finalize
- Deadline: 10 AM on September 14, 2026
- No changes allowed after locking
Why Your Rank, Category, and Seat Availability Matter
Your NEET UG rank, your category (General, OBC, SC, ST), and the number of available seats at each college determine which seat you will be offered. The allotment algorithm works as follows: it processes candidates in order of their NEET rank (highest rank first). For each candidate, it checks their locked preference list from top to bottom. It tries to allocate the candidate to the first college on their list where a seat is available in their category. If no seat is available at that college, it moves to the next college on the list, and so on.
This means that the order of your preferences directly influences your outcome. If you place a college you are unlikely to get into at the top of your list, you may miss out on a seat at a college lower on your list where you would have been eligible. Conversely, if you place colleges strategically—starting with your realistic targets and then adding aspirational choices—you maximize your chances of a good allocation. Take time to understand your rank, compare it with previous year cutoffs (if available), and arrange your choices thoughtfully.
- Allotment is based on NEET rank, category, and seat availability
- Algorithm processes candidates in rank order
- Tries to allocate to first available college on your preference list
- Order of preferences directly affects your seat allocation
- Strategic preference ordering increases chances of a good seat
Important Dates and Deadlines You Must Know
Several key dates frame the Round 2 process. Understanding them helps you plan your next steps and avoid missing critical windows.
The Round 1 surrender deadline without forfeiture was September 12, 2026, at 5 PM. If you had been allotted a seat in Round 1 and wished to surrender it without losing your eligibility for future rounds, that was the deadline. The Round 2 provisional merit list was released on September 14, 2026. The choice-filling deadline is today, September 14, 2026, at 10 AM. After this, the portal will close and no further changes will be accepted. Following choice filling, the TRMCC will process the allotment and release the Round 2 seat allotment result. The exact date for this result has not been announced in the current notice, but you should monitor the TRMCC portal daily for updates. Once the allotment result is released, you will have a specified deadline to report to your allotted college with original documents and complete the admission process.

What Happens After Choice Filling: Allotment and Reporting
After the choice-filling window closes at 10 AM today, the TRMCC will run the seat allotment algorithm. This process typically takes a few days. The committee will then release the Round 2 seat allotment result on the portal. You will be able to log in and see which college and course you have been allotted, if any.
Once the allotment result is released, you will have a limited time window (usually 3–5 days) to report to your allotted college with original documents. You must bring your NEET scorecard, Permanent Resident Certificate, identity proof, and any other documents specified in the admission letter. Failure to report within the deadline may result in forfeiture of your seat. After reporting, you will complete the admission formalities, pay fees, and secure your seat. If you do not report, your seat may be offered to the next eligible candidate in the waitlist, and you may lose your chance at a government seat in this round.
