NBEMS directs NEET PG 2025 candidates to complete reporting and fee payment within MCC deadline

The National Board of Examinations in Medical Sciences (NBEMS) has issued an advisory for candidates allotted NBEMS seats through the NEET PG 2025 All India Quota (AIQ) counselling conducted by the Medical Counselling Committee (MCC). The notice directs candidates to follow the MCC counselling schedule, scheme, and information bulletin available at mcc.nic.in.

Candidates have been instructed to ensure that their allotted hospital updates their reporting and joining status on the Intra-MCC portal within the prescribed timeline. NBEMS has clarified that if the hospital fails to update the joining status, the seat will be treated as vacant and carried forward to the next counselling round.

The advisory also outlines the process for payment of the first-year annual course fee. Candidates will have to pay the fee through the designated NBEMS payment portal within the joining window specified by MCC.

“Hospitals will verify the fee receipt before allowing the reporting/joining of the candidate. In case of non-submission of the fee, the allotted seat shall be treated as vacant and carried forward to the next round,” the official notice said.

NEET PG Counselling 2025: Training starts from reporting date

After completing the fee payment, candidates will have to report to their allotted hospitals within the prescribed schedule with all original documents for verification and medical examination.

Only those declared fit by the hospital’s Medical Board will be permitted to join. NBEMS has stated that the start of training will be counted from the date the candidate joins the allotted or upgraded seat.

Recently, the MCC extended the choice-filling process for NEET PG 2025 round 1 counselling till further notice. The decision was taken after the NMC informed about changes in postgraduate seats, and the National Board of Examinations (NBE) withdrew 169 DNB seats.

MCC stated that it is revising the NEET PG 2025 seat matrix to remove excess seats and reapply the reservation roster as per the counselling guidelines. The revised schedule and updated seat matrix will be published on the MCC website at mcc.nic.in.

NBEMS to launch OPJR portal

The notice also includes instructions for in-service doctors employed with government or public sector organisations. Such candidates will also have to produce a no-objection certificate and study leave approval from their parent department at the time of joining.

NBEMS will later activate the Online Portal for Joining and Registration (OPJR) after completion of all rounds of NEET PG 2025 counselling. A separate notice will be issued for this process, which will allow hospitals and candidates to upload joining details and documents.
