The Tripura Medical Counselling Committee (TRMCC) has released the Round 2 Seat Matrix for NEET UG 2026, listing all vacant MBBS, BDS, and AYUSH seats across state medical and dental colleges. This document is critical for candidates who did not secure a seat in Round 1 or who wish to upgrade their college choice. The choice filling window closes on September 14, 2026, at 10:00 AM—a tight deadline that requires immediate action. Understanding the seat availability and the colleges involved will help you make an informed decision about where to apply in this round.

Download the Round 2 seat matrix from trmcc.admissions.nic.in and fill your college preferences by September 14, 10:00 AM to participate in Round 2 allotment.

What Is the Tripura Round 2 Seat Matrix and Why Does It Matter?

The seat matrix is an official document that shows all vacant MBBS, BDS, and AYUSH seats available in Round 2 across Tripura's medical and dental colleges. It breaks down seat availability by college, course type, and reservation category (such as General, OBC, SC, ST, and In-Service). This matrix reflects seats that remained unfilled after Round 1 allotment and candidates who did not report to their allotted colleges.

For a NEET aspirant, the seat matrix is your roadmap for Round 2 choice filling. It tells you exactly which colleges have seats in your preferred course and category, helping you avoid wasting choices on colleges with no vacancies. Without consulting this document, you risk filling preferences for seats that do not exist, which could result in no allotment in Round 2.

Which Colleges Are Included in Tripura Round 2 Counselling?

Tripura's Round 2 seat matrix covers three government medical colleges: Agartala Government Medical College (AGMC) in Agartala, Tripura Medical College (TMC) in Hapania, and Tripura Santiniketan Medical College (TSMC). These institutions offer MBBS seats under state quota. Additionally, the matrix includes participating dental colleges offering BDS seats, as well as AYUSH institutions offering BAMS (Bachelor of Ayurvedic Medicine and Surgery), BHMS (Bachelor of Homeopathic Medicine and Surgery), and BASLP (Bachelor of Audiology and Speech-Language Pathology) courses.

All these colleges operate under Tripura's state-level counselling system, which manages 85 percent of MBBS and BDS seats. The remaining 15 percent All India Quota seats are handled separately by the national Medical Counselling Committee and are not part of this state counselling process. If you have qualified for NEET UG 2026 and registered under Tripura state counselling, you are eligible to apply for seats in these colleges during Round 2.

  • Agartala Government Medical College (AGMC), Agartala — MBBS
  • Tripura Medical College (TMC), Hapania — MBBS
  • Tripura Santiniketan Medical College (TSMC) — MBBS
  • Participating BDS colleges under state quota
  • AYUSH colleges offering BAMS, BHMS, BASLP courses

Critical Dates for Tripura Round 2: What You Must Know

The Tripura Medical Counselling Committee has set a compressed timeline for Round 2 activities. The seat matrix was released on September 13, 2026. The choice filling window closes on September 14, 2026, at 10:00 AM—meaning you have only one day to download the matrix, review seat availability, and submit your preferences. This is a hard deadline; late submissions will not be accepted.

Before choice filling, there was a surrender or withdrawal deadline on September 12, 2026, at 5:00 PM for candidates who wished to exit Round 1 allotment without penalty. If you missed that date, you cannot participate in Round 2 fresh choice filling. After choice filling closes, the TRMCC will publish the provisional merit list and allotment result on the portal. You must monitor the portal closely for allotment notifications and reporting instructions at your allotted college.

  • Round 2 Seat Matrix Release: September 13, 2026
  • Surrender/Withdrawal Deadline: September 12, 2026, 5:00 PM
  • Choice Filling Deadline: September 14, 2026, 10:00 AM
  • Provisional Merit List: Published on TRMCC portal (date to be announced)
  • Allotment Result: Expected shortly after merit list publication

Who Is Eligible to Participate in Tripura Round 2?

Round 2 is open to three categories of candidates: those who registered under Tripura state counselling but were not allotted a seat in Round 1, those who were allotted a seat in Round 1 but chose to exit (surrender) before the September 12 deadline, and fresh applicants who registered after Round 1 closed. You must have qualified NEET UG 2026 and completed registration on the TRMCC portal to be eligible.

However, if you were allotted a seat in Round 1 and reported to the college (joined), you cannot participate in Round 2 fresh choice filling. You may only participate if your college offers an upgradation option, which is a separate process. The TRMCC portal displays the provisional merit list for Round 2, which lists all eligible candidates. Check this list to confirm your eligibility before filling choices.

  • Candidates not allotted in Round 1
  • Candidates who surrendered their Round 1 seat before September 12, 5:00 PM
  • Fresh applicants who registered after Round 1
  • Must have qualified NEET UG 2026
  • Must be registered on TRMCC portal
  • Cannot participate if you joined a college in Round 1 (unless upgradation is offered)

How to Download and Use the Tripura Round 2 Seat Matrix

To access the seat matrix, visit the official TRMCC portal at trmcc.admissions.nic.in. On the home page, locate the UG Counselling section and click on the notification titled 'Round 2 Seat Matrix 2026.' Download the PDF file to your device. The document will display seat counts for each college, course, and reservation category. Study this carefully to identify which colleges have vacancies in your preferred course and category.

Once you have reviewed the seat matrix, log in to the TRMCC portal using your NEET UG 2026 credentials (registration number and password). Navigate to the choice filling section and enter your preferences in order of priority. You can fill multiple choices, but rank them carefully—the allotment algorithm will assign you the highest-ranked college for which you are eligible based on your NEET rank and the cutoff.

Understanding Seat Categories and Reservation in Tripura Round 2

The seat matrix breaks down available seats by reservation category, which includes General, OBC (Other Backward Classes), SC (Scheduled Caste), ST (Scheduled Tribe), and In-Service categories. Your eligibility for each category depends on your caste certificate, domicile status, and whether you qualify as an in-service candidate (such as a healthcare worker). The seat matrix will show the exact number of vacant seats in each category for every college and course.

When filling choices, ensure you select only the categories for which you are eligible. Filling a choice in a category you do not qualify for will result in rejection during allotment. If you are unsure about your category eligibility, contact the TRMCC office or consult your registration confirmation. The seat matrix PDF will clearly label each column by category, making it easy to identify the correct seats for your profile.

  • General category seats
  • OBC (Other Backward Classes) seats
  • SC (Scheduled Caste) seats
  • ST (Scheduled Tribe) seats
  • In-Service category seats
  • Verify your eligibility before filling choices in any category

What Happens After You Fill Choices? The Allotment Process

After the choice filling deadline closes on September 14 at 10:00 AM, the TRMCC will process all submitted preferences using a merit-based algorithm. The algorithm ranks candidates by their NEET score and assigns each candidate to the highest-ranked college on their preference list for which they are eligible based on the cutoff. The provisional merit list will be published on the TRMCC portal, showing the allotment result for each candidate.

Once allotment is announced, you must report to your allotted college within the specified timeframe (usually 2–3 days) with original documents, including your NEET admit card, mark sheet, caste certificate (if applicable), domicile certificate, and other required documents. Failure to report on time may result in forfeiture of your seat. The TRMCC portal will display reporting instructions and the list of required documents. Keep all documents ready and monitor the portal daily for allotment notifications.

  • TRMCC processes choices using merit-based algorithm
  • Allotment based on NEET rank and cutoff
  • Provisional merit list published on portal
  • Reporting deadline typically 2–3 days after allotment
  • Original documents required at college reporting
  • Monitor portal for allotment and reporting instructions

Key Differences Between Tripura State Quota and All India Quota

Tripura's MBBS and BDS seats are divided into two quotas: 85 percent state quota and 15 percent All India Quota. The state quota seats are managed by the Tripura Medical Counselling Committee through this state-level counselling process. The All India Quota seats are managed separately by the national Medical Counselling Committee (MCC) and follow a different counselling schedule and process.

If you are a Tripura domicile and registered under state counselling, you are competing for the 85 percent state quota seats shown in this seat matrix. If you wish to apply for All India Quota seats, you must register separately with the national MCC portal. Do not confuse the two processes—they operate independently, and seats from one quota cannot be transferred to the other. Check your registration confirmation to confirm which quota you are registered under.

  • State Quota: 85% of MBBS and BDS seats, managed by TRMCC
  • All India Quota: 15% of seats, managed by national MCC
  • State quota requires Tripura domicile and state registration
  • All India Quota open to candidates from all states
  • Two separate counselling processes and schedules
  • Seats cannot be transferred between quotas

What documents do I need to bring when reporting to my allotted college?

When reporting to your allotted college after Round 2 allotment, bring original copies of your NEET admit card, NEET mark sheet, caste certificate (if applicable), domicile certificate, and any other documents specified by the TRMCC or your college.

Report within the specified deadline (usually 2–3 days) to secure your seat.

How is the allotment decided in Tripura Round 2?

The TRMCC uses a merit-based algorithm to process all submitted preferences. The algorithm ranks candidates by their NEET score and assigns each candidate to the highest-ranked college on their preference list for which they are eligible based on the cutoff. Your allotment depends on your NEET rank, the cutoff for each college and category, and the order in which you ranked your choices. The provisional merit list will be published on the TRMCC portal showing the allotment result.

What should I do if I don't see my name in the Round 2 provisional merit list?

If your name does not appear in the Round 2 provisional merit list, it means you are not eligible for Round 2. This could be because you were allotted and joined a college in Round 1, you did not surrender your Round 1 seat before the deadline, or you did not register under Tripura state counselling. Contact the TRMCC office for clarification on your eligibility status. If you believe there is an error, file a grievance through the portal or visit the TRMCC office in person.
