Chhattisgarh NEET PG Counselling: Seat upgradation process

Apart from clear vacancies, the counselling authority has also indicated that virtual vacancies will be available in the second round. Virtual vacancies will be generated during the round 2 allotment process when candidates who secured admission in round 1 opt for upgradation to higher-preference colleges or courses. Seats vacated due to such upgradations will be offered to other candidates based on merit and availability during the same counselling round.

“In the second round and all subsequent counselling rounds, if a candidate does not take admission after seat allotment or resigns from the allotted seat after admission, the registration fee deposited by the candidate will be forfeited. Candidates are therefore advised to select only those institutions in which they are willing to take admission,” the official notice said.

The DME has clarified that previously registered candidates will have to re-fill and lock their choices, as all earlier institution selections have been reset. Candidates who fail to complete choice filling will not be considered for seat allotment.
