MCC Opens Seat Resignation Facility for Eligible Float Candidates

The latest facility is specifically meant for candidates who were allotted seats during NEET UG Counselling 2026 Round 1, accepted their allotted seats, completed the joining formalities and had exercised the Float option.

Such candidates may now withdraw or resign from their Round 1 joined seats if they have decided not to continue with their present allotment. However, they must ensure that the complete resignation process is carried out within the deadline announced by the MCC.

The committee has made it clear that the facility is available only during the stipulated window. Therefore, eligible candidates are advised not to wait until the last moment and should complete all the required formalities through the official MCC counselling system in time.

NEET UG Counselling 2026: Who Can Resign Their Round 1 Seat?

The seat resignation facility is available to Round 1 Float candidates who:

• Were allotted a seat through MCC NEET UG Counselling 2026 Round 1;

• Accepted the allotted seat;

• Completed the required joining process at the allotted institution; and

• Had opted for the Float option but now do not wish to retain their joined Round 1 seat.

Candidates falling under this category can submit their resignation request through their respective MCC counselling accounts within the announced withdrawal period.

Online Withdrawal Process Must Be Completed

Candidates planning to leave their Round 1 joined seats must complete the resignation procedure through their online MCC counselling account.

After submitting the seat withdrawal request, candidates have been instructed to generate the Seat Withdrawal Slip. This document is an important confirmation that the withdrawal request has been successfully processed through the counselling portal.

MCC has advised candidates to carefully follow every step of the online procedure. Merely informing the college or expressing a desire to leave the allotted seat will not be considered a valid resignation.

Seat Withdrawal Slip Is Mandatory

The counselling committee has issued an important warning for candidates who intend to resign from their allotted seats.

Candidates must not assume that their seat has been withdrawn simply after initiating or expressing an intention to submit a resignation request. The complete online procedure must be finished and the Seat Withdrawal Slip must be generated within the prescribed deadline.

If the candidate fails to complete the required withdrawal formalities within the specified period, the resignation request may be considered “Null & Void.”

Therefore, candidates are strongly advised to log in to their counselling accounts, submit the withdrawal request properly and download or generate the required withdrawal slip before the deadline expires.

No Security Deposit Forfeiture Within the Specified Period

One of the most important aspects of the latest MCC announcement is related to the Security Deposit.

Eligible Float candidates who submit their resignation or seat withdrawal request within the stipulated time period will be allowed to withdraw from their Round 1 joined seats without forfeiture of their Security Deposit.

Candidates who have decided not to continue with their current Round 1 allotment should therefore make use of this facility before the deadline of September 2, 2026, at 1:00 PM.

Completing the withdrawal process within the permitted window is essential for candidates seeking to leave their joined seat while avoiding the loss of their Security Deposit.

NEET UG Counselling 2026 Round 1 Final Allotment

Earlier, the MCC declared the Final Allotment Result for NEET UG Counselling 2026 Round 1 after publishing the provisional and revised provisional allotment results.

Candidates who received seats in the final allotment result were required to proceed with the reporting and joining process at their respective allotted colleges.

With Round 1 admissions progressing, MCC is now moving ahead with the subsequent stages of the counselling process. The committee has also released the Round 2 UG counselling schedule.

The newly announced resignation facility is particularly important for candidates who had selected the Float option after joining their Round 1 allotted seat but have now decided that they do not wish to continue with that seat.

Important Dates for Round 1 Float Candidates

Candidates Advised to Act Before the Deadline

Candidates eligible for this special resignation facility should carefully check their MCC counselling accounts and complete the withdrawal process within the notified timeline.

They should ensure that the resignation request is properly submitted online and that the Seat Withdrawal Slip is generated successfully. Missing any step or failing to complete the procedure before the deadline could result in the withdrawal request becoming invalid.

As NEET UG Counselling 2026 moves towards the next round of admissions, candidates are advised to take decisions regarding their allotted seats carefully and keep track of all counselling deadlines. Those wishing to resign from their Round 1 joined seats should complete the required process before 1:00 PM on September 2, 2026, to ensure that their withdrawal is successfully recorded and to avoid forfeiture of the Security Deposit.
