NEET-SS Cut-Off 2026 Lowered to 30 Percentile
The Centre has told the Supreme Court that it has agreed to reduce the qualifying percentile for the National Eligibility-cum-Entrance Test-Super Speciality (NEET-SS) from the existing 50th percentile to the 30th percentile. The reduction applies to a proposed Special Stray Vacancy Round, aimed at filling 1,857 super-speciality medical seats that remained vacant after the second round of NEET-SS counselling.
NEET-SS में अब कट-ऑफ 50वें पर्सेंटाइल से घटाकर 30वें पर्सेंटाइल किया गया है ताकि 1,857 खाली सुपर-स्पेशलिटी मेडिकल सीटें भरी जा सकें। यह बदलाव खास तौर पर स्पेशल स्ट्रे वेकेंसी राउंड के लिए है, जिससे अधिक उम्मीदवारों को मौका मिलेगा।

NEET-SS के लिए MCC द्वारा आयोजित की जाने वाली काउंसलिंग में 1,857 सीटें खाली हैं, जिनके लिए कट-ऑफ 50 से 30 पर्सेंटाइल किया गया है। इससे लगभग 6,000 नए उम्मीदवार इस राउंड के लिए पात्र होंगे, जो सीटों की संख्या से तीन गुना ज्यादा है।
How to Check NEET-SS Cut-Off
Since MCC has not yet released the official notification or portal link for the Special Stray Vacancy Round, the exact online check process is not available at this time. Based on how MCC has run previous NEET-SS counselling rounds, candidates can generally expect the check to work as follows once it is officially activated:
- Visit the official MCC counselling website (link to be added once released).
- Look for the notice regarding the “Special Stray Vacancy Round” or the revised qualifying percentile.
- Log in using your NEET-SS roll number/registration credentials to view your percentile and eligibility status for this round.
- Cross-check your percentile against the revised 30th percentile cut-off to confirm eligibility.
- Download or save the eligibility/status page for your records.
अधिकारिक सूचना और लिंक जारी होने के बाद उम्मीदवार MCC की वेबसाइट पर लॉगिन करके 30वां पर्सेंटाइल कट-ऑफ चेक कर सकते हैं और अपनी पात्रता सुनिश्चित कर सकते हैं। यह प्रक्रिया पिछले काउंसलिंग राउंड्स के समान होगी।
Important Instructions
- This is currently a proposal submitted by the Centre to the Supreme Court, not yet a formal MCC notification – candidates should watch for the official counselling schedule before making any decisions.
- Only candidates who have not joined a seat in earlier NEET-SS rounds, and who newly qualify under the 30th percentile threshold, are expected to be eligible for the stray round.
- Tamil Nadu in-service candidates should track updates separately, since 40 seats are being handled through a distinct one-week state-level process before returning to the central pool if unfilled.
- Candidates are advised to rely only on official NMC/MCC notifications for final dates, fees, and process – this report reflects the Centre’s court submission as covered by news agencies.
यह बदलाव अभी केंद्र सरकार की सुप्रीम कोर्ट में प्रस्तावित योजना है, MCC की आधिकारिक अधिसूचना नहीं। केवल वे उम्मीदवार जो पहले राउंड में सीट नहीं जॉइन किए हैं और अब 30वें पर्सेंटाइल पर योग्य हैं, वे इस स्ट्रे वेकेंसी राउंड में शामिल हो पाएंगे। तमिलनाडु के 40 इन-सर्विस सीटों के लिए अलग प्रक्रिया होगी।

NEET-SS Cut-Off 2026 Lowered to 30 Percentile – FAQs
Q1. What is the new NEET-SS cut-off percentile for 2026?
The Centre has told the Supreme Court it has agreed to reduce the NEET-SS qualifying percentile from the existing 50th percentile to the 30th percentile, for the purpose of the proposed Special Stray Vacancy Round.
Q2. How many NEET-SS seats are vacant after Round 2 in 2026?
1,857 super-speciality seats are vacant after the second round of NEET-SS counselling – comprising 1,094 DM/MCh seats and 763 DrNB-SS seats.
Q3. How many additional candidates will become eligible due to this reduction?
The Centre estimates that lowering the percentile will make approximately 6,000 additional candidates eligible, giving a candidate pool roughly three times the number of vacant seats.
Q4. Can candidates who already joined a seat in earlier NEET-SS rounds apply in the Special Stray Vacancy Round?
Based on the Centre’s submission, the vacant seats are proposed to be offered only to candidates who have not already joined a seat in the earlier NEET-SS counselling rounds and who become eligible due to the percentile reduction.
Q5. What is happening with Tamil Nadu’s in-service NEET-SS seats?
The Centre has agreed to revert 40 vacant in-service seats pertaining to Tamil Nadu to the state government, allowing Tamil Nadu to run its own Stray Vacancy Round for one week. Seats still unfilled after that will go back to MCC’s central pool.
कट-ऑफ कम होने से लगभग 6,000 नए उम्मीदवार पात्र होंगे, जिनमें केवल वे शामिल होंगे जिन्होंने पहले राउंड में सीट नहीं ली। तमिलनाडु के 40 इन-सर्विस सीटों के लिए अलग से एक सप्ताह का स्टेट-लेवल राउंड होगा, उसके बाद खाली सीटें MCC के पास वापस जाएंगी।
NEET-SS कट-ऑफ में बदलाव के मायने और तैयारी के सुझाव
इस बदलाव से अब ज्यादा उम्मीदवार NEET-SS के लिए पात्र हो जाएंगे, जिससे प्रतिस्पर्धा भले ही बढ़े लेकिन खाली सीटें भरने का मौका भी बढ़ेगा। ऐसे उम्मीदवार जो पिछले कट-ऑफ से बाहर थे, उन्हें अपना रजिस्ट्रेशन अपडेट करके इस विशेष राउंड के लिए तैयार रहना चाहिए। तमिलनाडु के उम्मीदवारों को अपनी राज्य सरकार के नोटिफिकेशन पर भी ध्यान देना जरूरी है। आधिकारिक वेबसाइट MCC से समय-समय पर अपडेट चेक करते रहना फायदेमंद रहेगा।
