Important Note About Horizontal Reservation

Candidates should pay particular attention to the instructions accompanying the revised vacancy list.

The numbers shown under horizontal reservation categories such as PwD, Freedom Fighter (FF), Ex-Servicemen (ESM) and MSP should not be treated as additional vacant seats.

These are horizontal reservations within the relevant seat categories rather than separate seats that can simply be added to the total vacancy figure.

Candidates should therefore avoid calculating the total number of available seats by adding horizontal-reservation figures separately.

Additional Provisional Allotment of Five MBBS Seats

Along with the revised vacancy list, an additional provisional allotment list has been issued for five MBBS candidates.

These seats had previously been withheld and have now been allotted following directions associated with W.A. No. 2674 of 2026.

The five candidates are all Puducherry residents and have been allotted MBBS seats under different categories.

The allotments are provisional and remain subject to the outcome of the relevant proceedings pending before the Madras High Court.

Candidates receiving these allotments should carefully follow the admission instructions issued by the counselling authority.

What Does the Additional Allotment Mean?

The additional provisional allotment provides an opportunity to the five affected candidates whose seats had previously been withheld.

However, these candidates should understand that the allotment is not completely independent of the ongoing legal proceedings.

The admission is expressly subject to the final outcome of the court case. Candidates should therefore retain all allotment documents and follow any further instructions issued during the admission process.

Puducherry NEET UG Round 3 Counselling 2026

The revised vacancy list has particular significance for the Round 3 counselling process.

Round 3 Registration Deadline

The Round 3 registration process for UG NEET-based medical courses was extended, with the final deadline set at October 6, 2026, up to 5:00 PM.

The extension applied to:

  • New Round 3 registration

  • Registration-fee payment

  • Withdrawal/resignation of Round 1 or Round 2 admitted seats

Candidates who had already joined a Round 1 or Round 2 seat and wanted to resign were required to submit the prescribed resignation request through their candidate dashboard within the deadline.
