Uttarakhand NEET UG 2026 Stray Round: Provisional Result Published

The Uttarakhand State Centralised Counselling Board has published the provisional result for the NEET UG 2026 Stray Round counselling. This is the final counselling round for MBBS and BDS seats in Uttarakhand colleges. The provisional result shows which seat (if any) has been allotted to you based on your merit, category, and choices. You must now verify that all your details are correct, report any errors immediately, and prepare to download your allotment letter. This is a critical moment — errors reported now can be corrected; errors missed will be locked in.

What is the Stray Round and why does it matter?

The Stray Round is the final counselling round in the NEET UG 2026 admission process for Uttarakhand. It is held after all previous rounds (merit round, mop-up rounds) to fill any remaining vacant seats. If you did not get a seat in earlier rounds, or if you chose to participate in the Stray Round, this is your last opportunity to secure an MBBS or BDS seat in an Uttarakhand college.

The Stray Round uses the same merit list and your original choices. Seats are allotted strictly by merit and category. Once the Stray Round result is final, the counselling process closes — there are no further rounds. This makes the Stray Round result your final allotment for the 2026-27 academic year.

What is a provisional result and why is it not final?

A provisional result is a preliminary allotment that is subject to verification and correction. The Counselling Board publishes it so you can check whether your details are correct and whether the seat allotted matches your eligibility and choices. The provisional result is NOT yet final — it can change if errors are found and corrected.

The notice explicitly states: 'The seat allotted in the provisional result shall not confer any right or claim upon the candidate.' This means that even if you see a seat allotted to you now, it is not guaranteed until the final result is published. The provisional result is also 'purely indicative in nature and subject to change.' This protects the Counselling Board's right to correct errors, but it also means you must verify your details immediately.

Important dates: what you must do and when

The Counselling Board has set two critical deadlines. First, you must report any discrepancies (errors) in your provisional result by 9:00 PM on 23 October 2026 — that is TODAY. Second, you can download your allotment letter from 9:00 AM on 24 October 2026 — tomorrow morning. Missing the first deadline means your errors will not be corrected; missing the second means you will not have your official allotment letter in time for joining.

Do not delay. If you spot an error in your name, category, course, college, or seat type, email the Counselling Board immediately at ukneetcounselling@gmail.com with your roll number and a clear description of the error. Keep a copy of your email for your records.

• Report errors by 9:00 PM on 23 October 2026 (today)
• Download allotment letter from 9:00 AM on 24 October 2026 (tomorrow)
• Email: ukneetcounselling@gmail.com

How to check your provisional result

The provisional result has been published on the official Uttarakhand State Centralised Counselling Board portal. You will need your NEET UG 2026 roll number and password to log in. Once you are logged in, you will see your allotment details: the college name, course (MBBS or BDS), seat category (General, OBC, SC, ST, etc.), and seat type (if applicable).

Take a screenshot or print your provisional result immediately. This is your proof of allotment and will be needed when you join the college. Do not rely on memory or a phone photo — keep a clear, dated copy.

• Visit the official counselling portal (www.hnbumu.ac.in or the link provided by the Counselling Board)
• Log in with your NEET UG 2026 roll number and password
• View your allotment: college, course, category, seat type
• Screenshot or print your result immediately

What details must you verify in your provisional result?

Before you report any error, carefully check every detail in your provisional result. Common errors include: your name spelled incorrectly, your category marked wrong (e.g., OBC instead of SC), your course listed as BDS when you chose MBBS, or the college name misspelled. Even a small error can cause problems when you join — your admission letter, fee receipt, and degree will all be based on this data.

If you see ANY discrepancy — no matter how small — report it immediately. Do not assume it will be corrected later. The notice makes clear that the provisional result is subject to change only if you report errors; once the final result is published, corrections become much harder.

• Your full name (spelling, middle name, initials)
• Your category (General, OBC, SC, ST, EWS, etc.)
• Your course (MBBS or BDS)
• The college name and location
• The seat type (if shown: General, Category-specific, etc.)
• Your roll number and registration number

How to report an error in your provisional result

If you find an error, you must email the Counselling Board before 9:00 PM on 23 October 2026. Send your email to ukneetcounselling@gmail.com. In your email, include: your NEET UG 2026 roll number, your full name, the error you found (be specific), and what the correct information should be. For example: 'My category is shown as OBC, but I am SC. My SC certificate is dated 15 March 2024 and is valid.'

Keep your email simple and clear. Do not send multiple emails about the same error — one clear email is better. Save the email confirmation or receipt as proof that you reported the error on time. The Counselling Board will review your email and correct the error if it is valid. You will be notified of the correction before the final result is published.

• Email address: ukneetcounselling@gmail.com
• Deadline: 9:00 PM on 23 October 2026 (today)
• Include: roll number, full name, error description, correct information
• Keep a copy of your email for your records

What if you did not get a seat in the provisional result?

If your provisional result shows 'No Allotment' or 'Not Allotted', it means no seat was available for you in the Stray Round based on your merit, category, and choices. This can happen if all seats have been filled by candidates with higher merit, or if your choices did not match any available seats. The Stray Round is the final round — there are no further counselling rounds after this.

If you did not get a seat, you have limited options: (1) you can appeal to the Counselling Board if you believe there is an error in your merit calculation or category, (2) you can explore private medical colleges (if you meet their eligibility), or (3) you can prepare to appear for NEET UG again next year. Contact the Counselling Board at ukneetcounselling@gmail.com if you wish to file an appeal.

Downloading your allotment letter: what you need to know

Your official allotment letter will be available for download from 9:00 AM on 24 October 2026 (tomorrow). This letter is your proof of seat allotment and is required when you join the college. You will need to log in to the counselling portal with your roll number and password, then download the letter as a PDF. Print it immediately and keep multiple copies — one for your college admission file, one for your records, and one as a backup.

The allotment letter will contain: your name, roll number, the college allotted, the course (MBBS or BDS), your category, and the date by which you must join the college. Do not lose this letter. If you lose it, you can download it again from the portal, but it is better to have a printed copy from the start.

• Download available from 9:00 AM on 24 October 2026
• Log in to the counselling portal with your roll number and password
• Download the PDF and print it immediately
• Keep multiple printed copies

What happens after you download your allotment letter?

Once you have your allotment letter, you must join the college by the date specified in the letter. Joining means reporting to the college in person, submitting your original documents (10th certificate, 12th certificate, NEET admit card, NEET score card, category certificate if applicable, domicile certificate, etc.), paying the admission fee, and completing the admission formalities. If you do not join by the deadline, your seat will be cancelled and offered to the next candidate on the waiting list.

Before you join, verify that the college is recognized by the Medical Council of India (MCI) or the National Medical Commission (NMC), and that it is accredited by the National Board of Accreditation (NBA) if applicable. Check the college's website for the exact joining date, documents required, and fee structure. Do not delay — joining deadlines are strict.

• Report to the college in person by the joining date
• Submit all original documents
• Pay the admission fee
• Complete admission formalities
• Verify the college's recognition and accreditation

Important legal note: the provisional result cannot be challenged in court

The notice includes a legal disclaimer: 'The provisional result shall not be liable to be challenged before any Court of Law.' This means you cannot file a court case to challenge the provisional result or the seat allotted to you. However, this does not prevent you from appealing to the Counselling Board itself if you believe there is an error in the allotment process or your eligibility.

The disclaimer protects the Counselling Board from frivolous legal challenges, but it does not mean the result is immune to correction. If you find an error, report it to the Counselling Board by email before 9:00 PM today. The Board will review your complaint and correct the error if it is valid. This is your remedy — not the courts, but the Counselling Board itself.

Common mistakes to avoid

Do not assume your provisional result is correct just because it is published. Many candidates miss errors because they do not carefully check every detail. Spend 10 minutes now verifying your name, category, course, and college. A small error now can cause big problems later.

Do not wait until the last minute to report an error. The deadline is 9:00 PM TODAY. If you email at 8:55 PM, you are cutting it very close. Email as soon as you spot an error. Do not assume the Counselling Board will correct errors automatically — you must report them.

Do not ignore the allotment letter download deadline. If you do not download your letter by the end of 24 October, you may face delays in joining. Download it as soon as it becomes available at 9:00 AM tomorrow.

Do not miss the college joining deadline. Once you have your allotment letter, check the college's website immediately for the joining date and required documents. Joining deadlines are strict — if you miss it, your seat will be cancelled.
