West Bengal NEET PG Counselling 2026: Process, Cutoff, Eligibility, Seat Matrix, Merit List, Bond

West Bengal NEET PG Counselling 2026 is conducted by the West Bengal Medical Counselling Committee for admission to MD/MS and PG Diploma courses in government and private medical colleges across the state. The entire process is carried out through an online centralized system, ensuring fair and merit-based seat allocation.

Unlike some states with complex quota structures, West Bengal counselling is relatively straightforward, where seat allotment is primarily based on NEET PG rank, reservation policy, and candidate preferences. Candidates must complete online registration, fee payment, document verification, choice filling, and locking to participate in the counselling process.

The counselling is conducted in multiple rounds including Round 1, Round 2, Mop-Up Round, and Stray Vacancy Round, giving candidates multiple opportunities to secure or upgrade their seats. However, strict rules regarding choice locking, reporting, and admission timelines must be followed, as missing any step can lead to cancellation of the allotted seat.

West Bengal NEET PG Counselling 2026 – Online Counselling Process

West Bengal NEET PG Counselling 2026 is conducted in a fully online mode through the official WBMCC portal. The admission process is structured into four major stages—Registration, Document Verification, Choice Filling, and Seat Allotment—ensuring a transparent and merit-based system for all eligible candidates.

🟢 Step 1: Online Registration & Fee Payment

Eligible candidates (State Quota / Management / NRI) must register using their NEET PG details. Basic information like Roll Number, Application Number, Name, and Date of Birth is auto-fetched and cannot be edited later.

Candidates must carefully complete the application form and pay a non-refundable counselling fee of ₹3,000 through online mode. Editing is allowed only before payment using the registration unlocking option.

Reservation claims (SC/ST/OBC/EWS) must strictly follow West Bengal certificate rules, otherwise candidates will be treated as General category.

🟢 Step 2: Physical Document Verification

After successful registration, candidates must appear in person for document verification as per the schedule mentioned in the Candidate Profile Letter.

All original documents + one set of self-attested photocopies are mandatory. After successful verification, candidates receive a Verified Certificate, which is essential for the next step.

🟢 Step 3: Choice Filling & Locking

Only verified candidates can participate in choice filling.

Candidates can select and arrange colleges and courses based on their eligibility (State / Management / NRI quota). Options can be modified (move, delete, reorder) before locking.

👉 Important:

• Choices must be locked with a password
• If not locked manually → system will auto-lock
• Only locked choices are considered for allotment

🟢 Step 4: Seat Allotment & Reporting

Seat allotment is done based on:

• NEET PG Rank
• Category & Reservation
• Quota Eligibility
• Filled Preferences

Results are published online. Candidates who receive a seat must report to the allotted college within the given timeline with documents and fees.

Failure to report → seat cancellation + ineligibility for further rounds

West Bengal NEET PG Counselling 2026 – Document Verification Rules

Document verification is a mandatory step before choice filling, and it directly decides your eligibility, category, and participation in counselling.

🟢 Who Needs Document Verification

• ✅ State Quota Candidates → Physical verification mandatory
• ✅ In-service Candidates → Verification mandatory
• ❌ Management Quota (Outsider Candidates) → NO document verification required

👉 This is a key rule:
Candidates applying only for Management Quota from outside West Bengal do NOT need to attend physical verification.
