1,316 BAMS, BHMS seats vacant after second round in Gujarat
The Admission Committee for Professional Undergraduate Medical Educational Courses has released the second-round online allotment results for BAMS and BHMS admissions for 2026-27 in Gujarat. Of the total seats, 5,479 have been allotted across the state quota and the 15% SFI-AIQ category. All 2,133 BAMS state quota seats are filled, but 945 of 3,611 BHMS state quota seats remain vacant, along with 371 BHMS seats in the SFI-AIQ category. Overall, 1,316 seats are still unfilled after the second round.
The second round added 2,330 new state quota admissions: 1,078 in BAMS and 1,252 in BHMS. Another 728 students switched their allotted seats, while 1,741 kept their original assignments. The SFI-AIQ category recorded 202 new admissions. Candidates allotted seats must pay tuition fees online from 8 to 13 October until 3:30pm, or at designated HDFC Bank branches, and report to help centres with original certificates from 8 October to 14 October. Students cancelling MBBS or BDS admissions must do so by 4pm on 9 October.
Indian Opinion Analysis
BAMS seats filled fully while 945 BHMS state quota and 371 BHMS SFI-AIQ seats stayed empty, concentrated entirely in the homeopathy stream. The gap suggests weaker demand for BHMS courses relative to BAMS, or perhaps applicants preferring to wait for later rounds rather than accept BHMS allotments now. The reporting window closes on 14 October, and students who want to quit MBBS or BDS have only until 4pm on 9 October to cancel, a tight deadline that will shape final occupancy numbers.
