  2. List of Vacancies after Round 1
  3. UG NEET Round 1 Admitted List
  4. Fee Structure applicable for Sri Venkateshwaraa Medical College & Research Institute
  5. The related interim court order affecting that fee notice

These are material Round 2 counselling updates for candidates considering MBBS/BDS seats in Puducherry.

Important — MBBS/BDS Must Be Tracked Separately

The official vacancy file includes multiple NEET-based courses.

Hire Guide Education should separate:

Primary MBBS/BDS Counselling

  • MBBS
  • BDS

from:

Other NEET Routes

  • BAMS
  • BVSc & AH

Do not combine their seats, quotas, cutoffs or counselling strategy.

Round 2 Registration / Preference Process

CENTAC has formally published the Round 2 notice covering:

  • Round 2 registration
  • submission of course preferences
  • willingness / participation requirements
  • resignation of a Round 1 admitted seat

Candidates should read the official notice before acting because Round 2 participation rules may differ according to whether the candidate:

  • was not allotted in Round 1;
  • was allotted but did not join;
  • joined a Round 1 seat;
  • wants an upgrade;
  • wants to resign the Round 1 admitted seat.

Fresh Round 2 Vacancy Position Available

CENTAC has also released the official:

List of Vacancies in UG NEET Courses after Round 1

This should now replace any Round 1 vacancy assumptions in HGE's Puducherry counselling dashboard.

For HGE data processing, extract MBBS and BDS separately by:

  • college
  • course
  • quota
  • category/reservation dimension where shown
  • vacancy count

Keep NRI as a quota.

Round 1 Admitted List Published

The official portal also carries the:

UG NEET Admitted List — First Round — 2026-27

This dataset is useful for:

  • determining actual Round 1 seat occupancy;
  • reconciliation against the vacancy matrix;
  • identifying unfilled / surrendered / available seats;
  • validating eventual Round 1 cutoff data.

Fee Update — Sri Venkateshwaraa Medical College

CENTAC has separately published a new fee notice for:

Sri Venkateshwaraa Medical College & Research Institute

based on an interim order dated:

8 September 2026

Candidates considering this institution in Round 2 should not rely blindly on an older fee table.

Verify the latest CENTAC-published fee before submitting the college as a preference.

HGE Data Mapping

For Puducherry, keep these dimensions separate:

Course

  • MBBS
  • BDS

Quota

  • Government
  • Management
  • NRI
  • Minority / institution-specific route where officially applicable

Category

Use only the official reservation categories.

Horizontal/Special

  • PwBD
  • Sports / special claims where applicable

Do not store NRI as a vertical category.

Student Checklist

  1. Open the official CENTAC UG-NEET portal.
  2. Read the Round 2 registration and preference notice.
  3. Check whether you need fresh Round 2 registration/willingness.
  4. Review the newly published vacancy matrix.
  5. Check your actual quota eligibility.
  6. If already admitted in Round 1 and considering resignation/upgradation, read the specific CENTAC rule first.
  7. Check revised college fees before final preference submission.
  8. Save proof of registration and course preferences.
  9. Monitor CENTAC for the Round 2 allotment publication.

Hire Guide Education Advice

Puducherry should no longer remain at a generic:

Round 1 Completed / Round 2 Awaited

status.

The correct live counselling position is now:

Round 2 Registration / Choice Preparation

with the fresh post-Round-1 vacancy matrix available.

HGE should also update the Sri Venkateshwaraa Medical College fee record from the new CENTAC notice before students use Round 2 choice-filling tools.
