Unlock My College ListRegistration Window and Fee Payment Deadline
Online registration for WB NEET PG 2026 Round 1 began on October 22 at 11:00 am and will close on October 28 at 6:00 pm. This is a hard deadline—no late registrations will be accepted. Alongside registration, you must pay a non-refundable counselling fee of ₹3,000 using any online payment method (net banking, credit card, debit card, or UPI). The fee payment window extends until midnight on October 28, giving you a few extra hours after the registration portal closes.
Once you complete registration and fee payment, you will receive a Candidate Profile Letter that specifies your assigned document verification centre, date, and time. This letter is essential for the next step and should be downloaded and printed immediately after payment confirmation.
Mandatory Document Verification at Your Assigned College
Between October 26 and October 29, you must visit your assigned medical college for in-person document verification. The verification window is 11:00 am to 4:00 pm each day. Bring your original documents (NEET PG admit card, MBBS degree, internship completion certificate, category certificate if applicable, and other supporting papers) along with your Candidate Profile Letter. This step is mandatory to become eligible for choice filling and seat allotment.
Document verification is not optional or online—physical presence at the college is required. If you miss this window, you will be ineligible for Round 1 allotment, even if you have registered and paid the fee. Plan your travel and document collection well in advance.

Official round-wise closing ranks with fee and stipend, matched to your rank.
On October 30 after 2:00 pm, WBMCC will publish the verified candidate list and the seat matrix for all government and private medical colleges in West Bengal. The seat matrix will show the number of MD, MS, and DNB seats available in each college and speciality, broken down by category (general, OBC, SC, ST) and quota (state quota and management quota for private colleges).
Choice filling opens on October 30 at 4:00 pm and closes on November 1 at midnight. During this window, you must log in to wbmcc.nic.in, review the seat matrix, and rank your preferred colleges and specialities in order of preference. The system will allocate seats based on your merit rank and your choice order. If you are applying for private college seats, you must also submit a refundable security deposit: ₹2 lakhs for state quota seats or ₹5 lakhs for management quota seats. Failure to submit this deposit will disqualify you from private college allotment.
Round 1 Seat Allotment and Reporting Schedule
Round 1 seat allotment results will be declared on November 4 after 4:00 pm. You can check your allotment status on wbmcc.nic.in using your login credentials. If you are allotted a seat, you must physically report to your assigned college between November 5 and November 10 (10:00 am to 4:00 pm) to complete admission formalities. Reporting on any of these five days is acceptable; you do not need to report on all days.
Physical reporting involves submitting original documents, paying admission fees, and completing college-level registration. Failure to report within the specified window will result in forfeiture of your allotted seat, and it may be offered to the next candidate in the merit list.
Step-by-Step Registration Process
To register, visit wbmcc.nic.in and select 'PG Medical Counselling' from the dropdown menu to access the candidate portal. On the registration page, enter your NEET PG roll number, application number, and date of birth to verify your credentials. Ensure these details match your NEET PG admit card exactly.
Next, fill in your personal information (name, contact details, address), category (general, OBC, SC, ST), MBBS education details (college name, year of passing), and internship completion status. Review all information carefully before saving, as errors may lead to rejection during document verification. After saving, proceed to pay the ₹3,000 counselling fee using your preferred online payment method. Once payment is confirmed, download your Candidate Profile Letter immediately and keep it safe.

What Happens if You Miss a Deadline?
Each stage of the WB NEET PG counselling process has a strict deadline. If you miss registration by October 28 (6:00 pm), you cannot participate in Round 1. If you do not complete document verification by October 29, you will be marked as unverified and excluded from choice filling and allotment. If you do not lock your choices by November 1 at midnight, your choices will be locked automatically with whatever you have filled so far, which may not reflect your true preferences.
If you fail to report to your allotted college by November 10, your seat will be cancelled. There are no extensions or grace periods. Plan your schedule now to ensure you meet every deadline.
Private College Seats and Security Deposits
If you are interested in private medical colleges in West Bengal, be aware that you must submit a refundable security deposit while filling your choices. For state quota seats in private colleges, the deposit is ₹2 lakhs. For management quota seats, the deposit is ₹5 lakhs. This deposit is refundable if you do not get allotted a private college seat or if you choose to withdraw after allotment.
The deposit must be submitted online during the choice-filling window (October 30 to November 1). Without this deposit, your application for private college seats will not be considered. Plan your finances accordingly if you are targeting private colleges.
Why This Timeline Matters for Your Career
The compressed timeline of WB NEET PG Round 1 counselling—from registration to allotment in just 13 days—reflects the urgency of filling PG seats quickly so that doctors can begin their training on schedule. For you, this means there is no room for procrastination or last-minute decisions. Every step must be completed on time, and every document must be in order.
Missing even one deadline can push you to Round 2 counselling, which may have fewer available seats and lower-ranked colleges. In some cases, you may not get a seat at all if you are not careful. Treat each date as non-negotiable and plan your actions accordingly.
