MCC releases NEET PG AIQ seat matrix for 2026 admissions
The Medical Counselling Committee (MCC) has released the All India Quota (AIQ) seat matrix for MD and MS courses in NEET PG counselling 2026. There are 13,522 AIQ seats available under the central and deemed university categories. The MCC has also issued separate matrices for the Central Internal Quota, DNB programmes with 9,201 seats, and deemed university seats totalling 7,537.
Registration for Round 1 opened on 12 October and will close on 21 October. Candidates can fill their choices until 22 October. The seat matrix can be viewed and downloaded from the MCC website at mcc.nic.in.
Indian Opinion Analysis
The 13,522 AIQ seats for MD and MS courses are fewer than the combined 16,738 seats from the DNB and deemed university categories, showing a fragmented postgraduate medical seat landscape where most openings fall outside the central quota. Candidates must now reconcile their NEET PG rank with the limited AIQ seats while factoring in the separate reservation matrices for each category. The choice filling window closes on 22 October, after which the first round of allocation begins.
