The Medical Counselling Committee (MCC) has officially extended the Round 2 college reporting deadline for NEET PG Counselling 2025. As per the latest update, candidates who have been allotted seats in MD and MS postgraduate medical programmes now have until December 29, 2025, to report to their respective colleges and complete the admission formalities.
This extension comes as a relief for many aspirants who were facing logistical and documentation challenges while reporting to the allotted institutes. The MCC continues to release real-time updates through its official website, mcc.nic.in, as the counselling process progresses.
Why the Reporting Deadline Was Extended
The extension of the Round 2 reporting deadline is aimed at ensuring a smoother admission process. Several candidates had requested additional time due to delays in document verification, travel constraints, or pending formalities at colleges. By extending the deadline, MCC has provided candidates with a fair opportunity to secure their allotted seats without unnecessary stress.
Such extensions are not uncommon in national-level counselling processes, especially when large numbers of candidates are involved, and multiple institutions are participating across states.
Who Is Affected by This Update?
This update applies to candidates allotted seats in Round 2 of NEET PG Counselling 2025 under the following quotas:
-
All India Quota (AIQ) seats
-
Deemed and Central Universities
-
ESIC and AFMS institutions
Candidates admitted under these categories must report physically to the allotted college before the revised deadline to confirm their admission.
What Candidates Must Do Before December 29
Candidates who have received a seat allotment in Round 2 must complete the following steps within the extended timeline:
-
Download the Seat Allotment Letter
The allotment letter is available on the MCC portal and must be carried to the college. -
Report to the Allotted College
Physical reporting is mandatory. Online confirmation alone will not secure admission. -
Complete Document Verification
Candidates should carry original documents along with multiple photocopies. -
Pay Admission Fees
The admission fee must be paid as per the college’s guidelines.
Failure to report by December 29, 2025, will result in forfeiture of the allotted seat, and the candidate may not be eligible for further rounds, depending on MCC rules.
Documents Required at the Reporting College
While the exact list may vary slightly by institution, candidates should generally carry:
-
NEET PG 2025 Admit Card
-

MBBS Degree Certificate or Provisional Certificate
-
Internship Completion Certificate
-
Permanent or Provisional Registration Certificate
-
Photo ID proof
-

Passport-size photographs
It is advisable to check the official website of the allotted college for any additional document requirements.
What Happens After Round 2?
Once Round 2 reporting concludes, MCC is expected to release the seat matrix for the next counselling round, followed by registration and choice filling. Candidates who did not get a seat in earlier rounds or those eligible for upgradation should closely monitor the official website for Round 3 counselling dates and instructions.
Round 3 usually includes seats vacated after Round 2 and may offer fresh opportunities for eligible candidates.
