Provisional allotment released; physical verification required from Aug 27

The Chhattisgarh Medical and Dental Counselling Committee on Wednesday issued the Round‑1 provisional seat allotment list for NEET UG 2026 candidates seeking admission to MBBS and BDS programmes in the state. In this first round, the committee has provisionally allocated 2,560 seats — including 2,114 MBBS and 446 BDS seats.

Students who have been allotted seats must complete document scrutiny and admission formalities in person, as the counselling process will be conducted in physical/offline mode. The scrutiny and admission schedule opens on 27 August from 10:00 am to 5:00 pm. The process will take a one‑day break on 28 August and resume on 29 August at 10:00 am, continuing through 3 September until 5:00 pm.

Where the closing ranks fell in Round‑1

Closing ranks for Round‑1 at state level have been published alongside the allotment. The MBBS state closing rank recorded for this round is 9,194, at Abhishek I Mishra Memorial Medical College and Research, Junwani‑Bhilai, Durg. For BDS, the state closing rank is 9,193, at Shri Balaji Institute of Dental Sciences, Raipur.

How to access the allotment and next steps

Candidates can download their Round‑1 provisional allotment letters from the Chhattisgarh counselling portal at cgdme.admissions.nic.in. On the homepage, applicants should go to the Candidate Activity Board – MBBS & BDS Counselling section and click the link for Round‑1 Seat Allotment Result for UG (MBBS/BDS) Counselling 2026 to view or print the allotment letter.

Following allotment, students must present original documents for verification during the physical scrutiny session on the scheduled dates. The counselling notice specifies that admissions will be completed offline, so candidates are advised to carry all required paperwork and fees in the prescribed mode.

  • Important dates: Scrutiny/admission — 27 Aug (10:00–17:00); holiday on 28 Aug; process resumes 29 Aug and continues until 3 Sep (10:00–17:00).
  • Website: cgdme.admissions.nic.in for allotment letter and notifications.
  • Seats in Round‑1: 2,114 MBBS; 446 BDS; total 2,560.

What candidates should prepare for the verification

Though the counselling notice lists the process as offline, it is essential that applicants check the official portal for an uploaded list of required documents and any institute‑specific instructions before visiting the counselling centre. Carrying original certificates, photocopies and the allotment letter will speed up verification. Candidates who fail to appear for scrutiny within the prescribed dates risk forfeiting the allotted seat.

Further rounds of counselling are typically held to fill vacant seats after each allotment stage; students who are not satisfied with their Round‑1 allocation or who remain unallotted should watch the official portal for Round‑2 and mop‑up round notifications and schedules.

This provisional allotment follows the National Eligibility cum Entrance Test (NEET) UG 2026 ranking and the state counselling rules administered by the Chhattisgarh Medical and Dental Counselling Committee. Candidates are advised to rely on the committee’s official communications for any clarifications and to avoid unofficial intermediaries.
