What Changed in This Revision?

ACPUGMEC had published another revised merit set on:

7 September 2026 — 2:50 PM

At that stage, both:

• NRI verification
• PwD verification

were still in progress.

In the newer update dated:

8 September 2026 — 12:45 PM

the authority has now added:

• NRI Merit List
• NRI Report

This means the NRI verification process has progressed enough for ACPUGMEC to publish the NRI merit dataset for Round 2.

PwD Merit Is Still Pending

ACPUGMEC specifically states that verification of candidates who applied under the:

PwD Quota

is still going on.

Therefore:

PwD-category merit will be declared separately in due course.

PwD candidates should not assume that their category-specific merit is final merely because the General/SC/ST/SEBC/EWS lists have been revised.

Round 2 Merit Lists Now Available

ACPUGMEC currently provides:

Main Vertical Categories

• General / Open
• SC
• ST
• SEBC
• EWS

Quota / Institutional Lists

• NRI Merit List
• NRI Report
• NHL Local Quota Candidate List
• SMC Local Quota Candidate List

Eligibility Audit

• Not Eligible Candidate List with Reasons

Still Pending

• PwD-specific merit after completion of verification

Important Data-Mapping Rule for HGE

Do not merge all these fields into a single category.

Correct website normalisation should be:

Vertical Category

• OPEN / GENERAL
• SC
• ST
• SEBC
• EWS

Quota

• Government Quota
• Management Quota
• NRI Quota
• NHL Local Quota
• SMC Local Quota

Horizontal Category

• PwD

Important

NRI = Quota

not vertical reservation category.

PwD = Horizontal reservation / special eligibility

not an independent standard vertical category.

NRI Candidates — What Changes Now?

The major practical change in this revision is publication of the:

NRI Merit List

NRI candidates should now:

1. Check whether their name appears.
2. Verify their merit position.
3. Confirm that their NRI eligibility details are correct.
4. Review colleges offering NRI seats.
5. Check the applicable NRI tuition fee.
6. Keep all original NRI supporting documents ready.
7. Fill choices according to genuine preference and affordability.

Round 2 Seat Pool Has Also Increased

Gujarat has separately announced an important MBBS seat addition for Round 2.

NMC approved an increase of:

50 MBBS seats

at:

Ananya College of Medicine & Research, Kalol, Gandhinagar

College Code:

ANAMED

The intake rises:

150 → 200 MBBS seats

The additional 50 seats are distributed as:

These seats will be included in the Second Round MBBS/BDS admission process.

Why These 50 Seats Matter

This is not merely an increase in sanctioned intake for a future round.

ACPUGMEC explicitly states that the additional seats:

will be included in Round 2

Therefore the additional pool can directly affect:

• Round 2 MBBS availability
• Government Quota movement
• Management Quota movement
• NRI availability
• Ananya College closing rank
• nearby private-college preference behaviour

Reservation Conversion Rules Matter in Round 2

ACPUGMEC also states that vacant reserved seats can be converted during the second round according to the applicable rules.

Examples published by the authority include:

• NRI → Management
• SC → Open
• ST → Open
• SEBC → Open
• EWS → Open
• PwD → respective parent category

This means the final Round 2 seat pool can differ from the initial category-wise vacancy position.

NRI Vacancy Conversion

ACPUGMEC specifically states that if NRI seats remain vacant:

they will be filled as Management Quota seats with Management Quota fees

subject to the authority's rules.

For GMERS colleges and Gujarat Adani Institute of Medical Sciences, Bhuj, which have NRI seats but no normal Management seats, the authority similarly states that vacant NRI seats will be filled under the Management route with the applicable Management fee.

This conversion should be captured carefully in HGE's cutoff analysis.

Merit List Does Not Equal Admission Cutoff

Students should not confuse:

Merit Rank

with:

College Closing Rank / Admission Cutoff

The merit list establishes the candidate's counselling position.

Actual admission opportunity depends on:

• merit rank
• category
• quota
• seat availability
• choice order
• reservation conversion
• candidate upgrades
• newly added seats
• college preference

The real Round 2 admission cutoff can only be derived after the allotment result.

HGE Round 2 Result Analysis Requirement

When ACPUGMEC publishes the Round 2 allotment result, Hire Guide Education should separately analyse:

Government MBBS

• college-wise opening merit
• closing merit
• OPEN
• EWS
• SEBC
• SC
• ST
• PwD where applicable

Management MBBS

• college-wise closing merit
• NRI-to-Management conversions
• Round 1 → Round 2 movement

NRI MBBS

• college-wise NRI closing merit
• seats filled
• seats converted to Management

BDS

• Government
• Management
• NRI where applicable
• category-wise movement

Local Quotas

• NHL Local
• SMC Local

Do not combine these into one Gujarat cutoff.

4. Confirm your category and merit position.

8. Check the newly added medical seats.
9. Consider the additional 50 Ananya MBBS seats.
10. Verify Government / Management / NRI quota before selecting a college.
11. Keep choices in genuine preference order.
12. Monitor ACPUGMEC for any further PwD merit update or Round 2 allotment publication.

Hire Guide Education Analysis

The most important change from the previous Gujarat merit revision is:

NRI Merit is now published.

The remaining incomplete merit component is:

PwD Category Merit

because ACPUGMEC says PwD verification is still underway.

At the same time, Round 2 receives 50 additional MBBS seats at Ananya College, split into:

38 GQ + 5 MQ + 7 NRI.

Candidates should therefore use the latest revised merit position together with the updated Round 2 seat pool—not Round 1 data alone—when finalising their strategy.
