NEET PG Round 2 Seat Matrix Out: Lock Choices by 15 November
MCC published the Round 2 seat lists on 11 November 2026. Here is what they contain, what the dates are and how to lock your choices before 15 November.
What MCC published on 11 November 2026
Three Round 2 lists for MD, MS and DNB seats went up on the MCC PG counselling page on 11 November 2026: a clear vacancy list of 14,614 seats, a virtual vacancy list of 18,055 seats and a newly added seats list of 3,550 seats, counted row by row from the MCC PDFs.
Clear vacancy or virtual vacancy: which can you get?
A clear vacancy is a seat that is free now, not allotted in Round 1 or given up. A virtual vacancy is a seat held by a Round 1 candidate who asked to upgrade; it opens only if that candidate moves. Fill both kinds, but build your list on the clear seats.
3,550 new seats, and a few taken out
The newly added list carries 3,550 MD, MS and DNB seats approved by NMC after Round 1, which is why MCC moved the Round 2 dates on 7 November. On 11 November MCC also issued Notice No. 6 adding and removing a small number of seats, including seats at Mohali and INHS Asvini Mumbai, so refresh your choice list before you lock.
Round 2 dates after the 7 November revision
Registration and payment close at 3:00 PM and 6:00 PM on 14 November. Choice filling runs to 11:55 PM on 15 November, and locking opens at 4:00 PM on 14 November and closes with it. Provisional result 16 November, final result 17 November, reporting 18 to 24 November, data verification 25 November.
How to use the three lists before you lock
Download all three PDFs, filter by state, quota, branch and category, and put the clear vacancy seats you want at the top. Add virtual vacancy seats below them as free upgrades. Lock the list yourself before 11:55 PM on 15 November; MCC auto locks unlocked choices, but only in the order you left them.
What happens after 17 November
The final Round 2 result comes on 17 November. Allotted candidates report to the institute between 18 and 24 November with originals and the fee. Round 1 candidates who chose upgrade and get a Round 2 seat lose the earlier one automatically. Round 3 registration is scheduled from 26 November.
