How to Register for Odisha NEET PG Counselling 2026

Candidates should complete the counselling process carefully because registration alone is not sufficient.

The broad process is as follows.

Step 1: Pay the Counselling/Application Fee

Candidates first need to deposit the applicable counselling fee through SBI Collect.

The official Odisha PG Medical guidelines state that the counselling/application fee is ?2,500 for the applicable PG medical counselling process. The fee is non-refundable.

Candidates should save and print the payment receipt because it will be required during document verification.

Step 2: Complete Preliminary Registration

After payment, candidates need to open the Preliminary Registration section on the Odisha PG Medical Counselling portal.

Details generally required include:

• NEET PG roll number
• Date of birth
• NEET PG score
• NEET PG rank
• Candidate name
• Email address
• Password
• State eligibility details

Candidates should enter information exactly as available in their NEET PG and academic records.

Step 3: Complete the Online Application

After creating login credentials, candidates must log in and complete the online application form.

The application should be checked carefully before final submission.

Candidates should take a printout of the submitted application because the signed application form is required for verification.

Step 4: Attend Document Verification

Only registration and application submission are not enough to become eligible for the merit list.

Candidates must complete document verification within the scheduled period.

The official guidelines state that candidates who fail to attend the required document verification may not be included in the merit list and may therefore be unable to participate in subsequent choice filling.

Odisha NEET PG Document Verification Schedule

The 2026 document verification is being conducted at:

Venue:
650 Lecturer Theatre,

The revised notice has divided candidates according to their State Application Number.

Odisha NEET PG Seat Matrix 2026

It will help candidates understand the number of available seats across participating colleges, branches and categories.

The counselling portal currently lists several participating institutions for PG Medical courses, including government and private medical colleges in Odisha. It also separately lists institutions participating in Post-MBBS DNB and NBEMS Diploma counselling.

Candidates should analyse the seat matrix carefully before preparing their preference list.

Odisha NEET PG Choice Filling 2026

Choice filling will be one of the most important stages of Odisha NEET PG Counselling 2026.

However, as of 14 October 2026, the detailed Round 1 choice-filling dates have not yet been announced in the initial official schedule. The counselling committee has stated that a separate detailed Round 1 programme will be published.

Once choice filling opens, candidates will need to arrange their preferred:

College + Course/Branch combinations

The choice order should reflect what the candidate actually wants rather than only previous-year cutoff trends.

Before locking choices, compare:

• Preferred branch
• College
• Clinical exposure
• Fees
• Stipend
• Service bond
• Location
• Previous closing ranks
• Seat availability

Candidates should also read the official choice-filling instructions provided on the counselling portal before submitting their final preferences.

Odisha NEET PG Seat Allotment 2026

The Round 1 seat allotment date has not yet been included in the first detailed registration schedule.

After merit-list preparation and choice filling, the counselling authority will process seat allotment based on factors such as:

• State merit
• Candidate category
• Eligibility
• Available seat matrix
• Choices submitted
• Applicable reservation and counselling rules

Candidates allotted a seat will later be required to download the allotment letter and complete provisional admission according to the notified procedure.

The official Odisha counselling workflow includes allotment, downloading the allotment letter, provisional admission and subsequent counselling rounds.
