The National Board of Examinations in Medical Sciences has released the schedule for the final mop-up round of the Fellowship of the National Board (FNB) seat counselling. Candidates who have been allotted a seat must join the institution by October 1. Those who fail to join will lose their FNB seat, and their first-year course fee will be forfeited.

The mop-up round is for super-specialty seats that remained vacant after the earlier counselling rounds. Eligible candidates can participate through the official NBEMS portal. The schedule includes registration, choice filling, result announcement, and reporting deadlines.
The National Board of Examinations in Medical Sciences conducts the FNB counselling for super-specialty training after the NEET SS exam. Seats that remain vacant after earlier rounds are pooled for this final mop-up. The forfeiture of both the seat and the first-year fee is a standard penalty found in many medical counselling processes to discourage no-shows. Candidates who miss this round will have to wait for the next academic cycle or seek alternative training pathways. The board typically releases a list of unfilled seats by college and speciality alongside the schedule.
