Delhi NEET Counselling 2026 Seat Allotment is purely governed by the Medical Counselling Committee (MCC), DGHS, Ministry of Health & Family Welfare, Government of India. The University of Delhi does not conduct its own allotment process.
Both quotas (85% Delhi Quota & 15% All India Quota) are allotted by MCC. Once MCC allots you a seat in a Delhi University-affiliated college, only then does the University of Delhi’s Faculty of Medical Sciences (FMSC) step in for the admission formalities.
Getting a good NEET UG 2026 rank is one thing. Knowing exactly what to do with that rank during Delhi NEET Counselling 2026 Seat Allotment is what actually gets you the seat. A lot of students lose their allotted seats simply because they miss a deadline or skip a step. This guide walks you through the entire seat allotment process so that does not happen to you.
Total Seats Available for Allotment
Before understanding the process, it helps to know how many seats are actually up for allotment under Delhi NEET Counselling 2026.
| College | Course | Total Seats | Delhi Quota (85%) | All India Quota (15%) | NGOI Seats |
| Lady Hardinge Medical College (LHMC) | MBBS | 240 | 189 | 36 | 15 |
| Maulana Azad Medical College (MAMC) | MBBS | 250 | 207 | 37 | 6 |
| University College of Medical Sciences (UCMS) | MBBS | 170 | 145 | 25 | 0 |
| Maulana Azad Institute of Dental Sciences (MAIDS) | BDS | 50 | 42 | 8 | 0 |
| Total | 710 | 583 | 106 | 21 |
Points to note:
- LHMC admits female candidates only
- Seats may increase or decrease based on approvals from NMC, DCI, or MoHFW
- NGOI seats are filled through the Central Pool Scheme — not through regular counselling
How Is the Seat Allotted to You?
Seat allocation through the Delhi NEET Counselling 2026 Seat Allocation process is completely based on merit. This is how the process will take place:
Your NEET UG 2026 rank is considered when it comes to your choices filled in the choice filling process. The system allocates the best available seat from your preference list based on your rank and category. This means:
- If your rank is good enough for your first preference college, you get that seat
- If not, the system moves to your second preference, then third, and so on
- If none of your preferences are available for your rank and category, you do not get a seat in that round
This is why choice filling matters enormously. The more thoughtfully you fill your preferences, the better your chances of getting a seat that works for you.
Step-by-Step Seat Allotment Process
Register on MCC Portal
Visit mcc.nic.in and complete your counselling registration. Pay the MCC registration fee as applicable. This step is mandatory before you can participate in any round of allotment.
Fill and Lock Your Choices
Once registration is done, the choice filling window opens. Add all the colleges you want to be considered for, in your preferred order. You can add, remove, and rearrange until the window closes.
Always lock your choices manually before the deadline. If you forget to lock, the system will auto-lock your last saved preferences. But relying on auto-lock is risky, always lock yourself.
Seat Allocation Result
Once the choice filling process gets over, MCC evaluates the data entered by the students and publishes their seat allocation result at mcc.nic.in. Login and verify the seat allotment result.
Confirm Your Alloted Seat
In case you get your desired seat, confirm your seat by paying the seat acceptance fee on the MCC portal during the specified time period. Failure to pay the fee within this period means losing the seat.
Document Verification from College
Go to the college for document verification. Take all relevant documents in their original form along with two sets of photocopied and attested copies to verify your documents.
Register on FMSC Portal
Once your documents have been verified by the college, register yourself on the FMSC portal of the University of Delhi through https://fmsc.du.ac.in. Upload all documents and make the payment for FMSC Registration Fee online.
Execute Surety Bond
When you get provisional admission, execute Surety Bond worth Rs. 3 lakhs with two sureties. Your admission will be treated as invalid until this Surety Bond is executed. You can find the proforma of Surety Bond at https://fmsc.du.ac.in.
Pay College Fee
College fee is paid directly at the allotted college, not on the FMSC portal. Check with the respective college for the fee structure and payment mode.
Round-Wise Allotment Structure
Delhi NEET Counselling 2026 Seat Allotment happens across multiple rounds. Here is what each round means:
| Round | Who Can Participate | Key Action |
| Round 1 | All registered candidates | Choice filling, allotment, acceptance, reporting |
| Round 2 | Candidates without a seat or those who want to upgrade | Fresh choice filling or retaining old choices |
| Mop-Up Round | Candidates still without a seat after Round 2 | Last chance for remaining vacant seats |
| Stray Vacancy Round | As notified by MCC | Filling any seats left after Mop-Up |
Each round has its own registration window, choice filling window, allotment result date, and reporting deadline. Missing any one of these in a round means you lose participation in that round.
What Happens After Seat Allotment – College-Wise Reporting
After your seat is allotted and confirmed, you have to physically appear at the college on the date specified in your allotment letter. Documents required to be brought along on appearing at the college:
- MCC allotment letter (printed copy)
- FMSC registration form (printed copy)
- Original certificates of all the documents as per registration requirement
- Self attested photocopy of all documents in duplicate copies
- Surety bond with two sureties
Your original certificates will be in the custody of the admitting institution till you either complete the course or pay the amount of Surety Bond, whichever applies.
What If You Miss the Reporting Deadline?
If you fail to report to the allotted college by the date mentioned in your allotment letter, your admission is liable to be cancelled. There are generally no second chances on reporting deadlines.
Plan your travel and document preparation well in advance so you are not scrambling at the last minute.
Rules on Resignation and Withdrawal
If you want to withdraw from your allotted seat, the rules and guidelines of MCC apply in letter and spirit. The Surety Bond amount may be forfeited in the following situations:
- If you surrender your seat after joining the allotted institution in violation of MCC rules
- If you leave the course before completing it
- If your admission or registration is cancelled by the University due to misconduct, indiscipline, or unsatisfactory performance
However, if you leave the course under circumstances covered by NMC or DCI regulations or University examination-related ordinances, the bond money is not applicable.
No Migration Allowed
Once you are admitted to a medical college under the University of Delhi, no migration either to or from any other college within the University is permitted. Your allotted college is where you study for the entire duration of the course.
NGOI Seats – How Are They Allotted?
21 MBBS seats (15 at LHMC and 6 at MAMC) are filled through the Government of India Nominee (NGOI) or Central Pool Scheme. These are not part of the regular MCC counselling allotment.
Eligible categories include wards of defence personnel, children of para-military personnel, Tibetan refugees, National Bravery Award winners, and others. Applications for these seats go directly to designated central authorities not to the college or the University.
