# 2,742 Ayurveda, homeopathy seats vacant in Gujarat after Round 1 2026-10-02T00:03:43+00:00 | Governance | Indian Opinion Desk Corroboration: 1 independent outlet A total of 2,742 state quota seats in undergraduate ayurveda and homeopathy courses remain vacant in Gujarat after the completion of Round 1 reporting for BAMS and BHMS admissions for the academic year 2026-27. The reporting process for the first round ran from 23 September to 1 October. According to the admission committee, 828 BAMS state quota seats are vacant, including 147 that were not allotted and 681 where candidates did not report. The shortfall is steeper in homeopathy: 1,914 BHMS state quota seats are vacant, comprising 972 non-allotted seats and 942 where allotted candidates failed to report. In the 15% SFI-AIQ category, another 484 seats remain vacant, 88 in BAMS and 396 in BHMS. The committee said it is providing guidance through telephone and email, and has advised students to check the official admission website for further updates. ## Indian Opinion Analysis The 2,742 unfilled state quota seats, 1,119 never allotted and 1,623 vacated by no-shows, indicate a mismatch between sanctioned capacity and student uptake for traditional medicine streams in Gujarat. The heavy BHMS vacancy of 1,914 seats suggests homeopathy faces a sharper demand problem than ayurveda. The figures exclude the SFI-AIQ category, where another 484 seats lie empty. The admission committee has not announced a mop-up round or extended deadline, leaving candidates to watch the official website for the next step. ## Coverage - timesofindia.indiatimes.com Straight data report with no editorialising This brief was synthesised by AI from the source linked above.
