The West Bengal Medical Counselling Committee (WBMCC) has released allotment results for the special stray round of NEET UG 2026 counselling, covering both MBBS and BDS seats. This is the final opportunity for candidates to secure a medical or dental seat in West Bengal this admission cycle. If you have been allotted a seat, you must report to your college with original documents between 10 am and 4 pm on November 13, 14, or 16. Missing this deadline means losing your seat, so understanding the reporting process and required documents is critical.
Allotted candidates must report to their college with original documents by November 16, 2026, or risk losing their seat in this final counselling round.

The special stray round is the last phase of state-level counselling for NEET UG 2026 in West Bengal. It fills seats that remained vacant after all previous rounds of allotment. For MBBS, this round covers both state quota and private management quota seats. For BDS candidates, this round functions as Round 5 of the overall counselling process.
This round is your final chance to secure a medical or dental seat in West Bengal for the 2026–27 academic session. Any seats not filled during this round may remain vacant for the year. If you have been allotted a seat here, accepting it and reporting on time is essential—there will be no further rounds after this.

Reporting Dates and Time Window
You have three days to report to your allotted college: November 13, 14, or 16, 2026. On each of these days, the college will accept reporting between 10 am and 4 pm. Plan your travel and document arrangement accordingly—do not assume that weekends or holidays will result in extended reporting windows. The college will be open on all three designated dates during the specified hours.

It is crucial to report within this window. Once November 16 passes, your seat will be considered forfeited, and you will not be able to join the college or pursue your MBBS or BDS degree through this round. If you are unable to report on one of these dates, contact your allotted college immediately to understand if any exception is possible, though this is unlikely.
- Reporting dates: November 13, 14, or 16, 2026
- Reporting time: 10 am to 4 pm on each date
- Weekends and holidays count as working days during counselling
- Reporting is mandatory; missing the deadline forfeits your seat
Original Documents You Must Carry
Colleges will accept only original documents during reporting—photocopies alone will not suffice. You must bring a complete set of originals to verify your eligibility and complete your admission. Forgetting even one required document may delay your admission or, in some cases, result in rejection of your application.
Prepare all documents well in advance and keep them in a safe folder. If any document is missing or damaged, contact the issuing authority (school, local administration, or NEET authority) immediately to obtain a replacement or certified copy before your reporting date.
- Provisional allotment letter from WBMCC
- NEET UG 2026 admit card and scorecard
- Class 10 certificate (for date of birth proof)
- Class 12 marksheet and pass certificate
- Domicile certificate (required for state quota seats)
- Caste or category certificate (if applicable)
- Recent passport-size photographs (typically 4–6)
- Valid photo ID (Aadhaar, PAN, or driving licence)
Understanding the Revised Counselling Schedule
The WBMCC issued a revised schedule on November 4, 2026, extending key deadlines by one day to allow more candidates to complete registration, verification, and choice filling. Registration and fee payment were extended to November 5, document verification to November 6, and choice filling to November 7. Despite these extensions, the allotment result date remained November 12, ensuring the reporting window could begin promptly.
The schedule extension was particularly helpful for candidates who faced delays in document verification or had difficulty completing online registration. NRI (Non-Resident Indian) candidates were exempt from attending in-person verification, allowing them to participate without traveling to India. Understanding this revised timeline helps you appreciate why the reporting window is now so tight—the committee compressed the final steps to ensure timely seat allocation.
- Online registration extended to November 5 (8 pm)
- Fee payment extended to November 5 (midnight)
- Document verification extended to November 6 (4 pm)
- Choice filling extended to November 7 (2 pm)
- Allotment result released on November 12 (after 2 pm)
- NRI candidates did not require in-person verification

You will then be required to pay the admission fee and complete any remaining formalities such as hostel registration or course-specific orientation. The college will also provide information about the academic session start date and any pre-admission activities.
Once your admission is finalized, your name will appear on the college's joined candidates list, which WBMCC will publish. This list confirms that you have successfully secured your seat. Keep all admission documents safe, as you will need them for future academic and professional purposes.

Why This Round Is Your Last Chance
After the special stray round closes on November 16, there will be no further state-level counselling rounds for NEET UG 2026 in West Bengal. Any seats remaining vacant after this round will either stay empty for the year or be filled through institutional-level spot admissions (if the college chooses to conduct them). If you miss this deadline, you will not be able to join an MBBS or BDS programme in West Bengal through the regular counselling process.
This finality makes the reporting deadline non-negotiable. Even if you are unsure about the college or course, reporting and completing admission is far better than losing the seat entirely. You can always explore options like seat upgrades or transfers in future years if needed, but only if you have secured a seat now.
- No further state counselling rounds after November 16
- Vacant seats may not be filled through regular counselling
- Missing the deadline forfeits your seat permanently
- Reporting is your only path to join MBBS or BDS in West Bengal this year
