- Read the latest notices and counselling schedule.
- Check for revised registration and fee-payment instructions.
- Review the updated seat matrix when it is published.
- Follow official instructions regarding registration, choice filling and subsequent counselling stages.

When Will AACCC Release the Revised Counselling Schedule?

What Is AACCC PG Counselling?
AACCC conducts online counselling for eligible candidates seeking postgraduate AYUSH admissions through the applicable All India Quota and participating institutional categories. Its PG counselling information covers admissions to MD/MS programmes in Ayurveda, Siddha, Unani and Homoeopathy, subject to the relevant eligibility rules and counselling scheme. Candidates who qualified in AIAPGET 2026 and are seeking admission through AACCC should refer to the official information bulletin for eligibility, fees, registration procedures and other admission requirements. The counselling hold notice should not be interpreted as a postponement of the AIAPGET examination itself or as confirmation that every state-level AYUSH admission process has been suspended.
What Should AIAPGET 2026 Candidates Do Now?
Candidates should keep their application details and relevant documents ready, review the applicable counselling information bulletin and check AACCC's website regularly for revised instructions. They should also verify any new deadlines against the official notice before completing registration, making payments or submitting college preferences. If instructions are unclear, candidates can contact the AACCC student helpline using the details published on the official website.
Conclusion
AACCC has officially withheld AYUSH PG counselling for the 2026–27 session until further notice, citing administrative reasons. The revised schedule and seat matrix remain awaited under the October 26, 2026 notice.
