The Medical Counselling Committee (MCC) has extended the choice filling deadline for NEET PG 2025 Round 1 until further notice. This decision revises the original November 5 deadline. It follows substantial updates regarding postgraduate (PG) medical seats. Concurrently, the Person with Disability (PwD) certificate generation portal remains active until November 8, 2025 , at 5 pm.
The extension directly stems from new information provided by the National Medical Commission (NMC). These updates concern changes in the number and distribution of available PG seats. Additionally, the National Board of Examinations (NBE) withdrew 169 PG DNB seats . This withdrawal occurred after the counselling process began.
MCC is actively revising the complete seat matrix. This revision includes removing any identified excess seats. The committee will also reapply the roster system. This step ensures all reservation policies are strictly followed, aligning with guidelines detailed in the official information bulletin.
The updated seat matrix and the new schedule for NEET PG Round 1 counselling will be released shortly. Candidates must regularly check the official MCC website, mcc.nic.in, for these announcements. Corresponding updates for State PG Counselling schedules will also follow.
Seat Revisions Impact NEET PG Counselling
The withdrawal of 169 PG DNB seats by the NBE created an immediate need for adjustments. This significant reduction in available positions impacts candidates’ choices. MCC’s revision aims to ensure transparency and fairness in seat allocation.
Earlier, MCC had already modified the NEET PG 2025 seat matrix. This previous update involved the removal of 73 postgraduate seats from various institutions across six different states.
State-wise PG Seat Removals (Previous)
| State | Seats Removed |
|---|---|
| Gujarat | 39 |
| Jammu and Kashmir | 12 |
| Uttar Pradesh | 9 |
| Chhattisgarh | 7 |
| Telangana | 4 |
| West Bengal | 2 |
| Total | 73 |
These consistent changes in the seat matrix underscore the dynamic nature of medical counselling. Students are urged to remain vigilant for official announcements.
PwD Certificate Portal Active Until November 8
The Person with Disability (PwD) portal for NEET PG 2025 Round 1 counselling is currently operational. Eligible candidates must generate their PwD certificates through this portal. The deadline for this process is November 8, 2025, at 5 pm .
Beyond online generation, eligible PwD candidates must also visit designated disability centres recognized by MCC. This step is crucial for obtaining their physical PwD certificates. Centres verify disability status according to National Medical Commission (NMC) norms.
Original Counselling Schedule Postponed
The initial NEET PG 2025 Round 1 counselling schedule had distinct deadlines. Choice filling was originally set to close on November 5 . The seat allotment result was scheduled for November 8 . Both these dates are now deferred. The new schedule will be announced by MCC after seat matrix revisions are complete.
All candidates participating in NEET PG 2025 counselling must actively monitor the official MCC website at mcc.nic.in. Regular checks are essential for accessing the latest announcements. The committee will publish the revised seat matrix and the complete new counselling schedule directly on this portal.
