The competitive journey for postgraduate medical admission has reached its first major destination. The Medical Counselling Committee (MCC), operating under the Directorate General of Health Services (DGHS), has officially declared the Final Result of Round 1 of the NEET PG 2025 Counselling process. Following a brief provisional period that allowed candidates to raise grievances, the final list confirms the seat allotment for a massive total of 26,889 candidates across the 50% All India Quota (AIQ), Central Institutions, Deemed Universities, and DNB seats.

​This definitive announcement marks the end of the initial allotment phase and triggers the crucial physical reporting stage. For the thousands of successful aspirants, the window of opportunity to secure their allocated MD, MS, or PG Diploma seat is extremely narrow. Timely action, meticulous document preparation, and a clear understanding of the 'Freeze or Float' option are paramount to formalizing their admission and preventing the forfeiture of their hard-earned seat.

​Mandatory Post-Allotment Procedures & Deadlines 

​All 26,889 candidates who have been allotted a seat must now complete the stringent reporting formalities at their respective institutions. The failure to adhere to the strict deadlines and document requirements will result in the automatic cancellation of the allotted seat.

• ​Download Final Allotment Letter: The first step is to log in to the official MCC portal (\text{mcc.nic.in}) and download the Final Seat Allotment Letter. This letter is the mandatory authorization required for physical reporting.
• ​The Reporting Window: Candidates must physically report to the allotted Medical/Dental College between November 23 and December 1, 2025. It is crucial to note that this is a strict deadline set by the MCC.
• ​The 'Freeze' or 'Float' Decision: Upon reporting, candidates must make a binding choice: 
  • ​'Freeze': The candidate accepts the allotted seat and does not wish to participate in subsequent rounds for upgrading their choice. This confirms their admission.
  • ​'Float' (Willingness for Upgradation): The candidate accepts the allotted seat but wishes to be considered for a higher-preference course/college in Round 2. They must still complete the admission and fee formalities in the Round 1 college.
• ​Document Verification and Fee Payment: Candidates must present all original documents for verification (as listed below) and pay the requisite college tuition fee to complete the joining process.

​Essential Document Checklist for Reporting 

​Candidates are strongly advised to prepare multiple sets (at least two) of self-attested photocopies along with the originals of the following documents to ensure a smooth reporting process at the allotted institute:

• ​MCC Generated Documents: 
  • ​NEET PG 2025 Rank Letter/Scorecard.
  • ​NEET PG 2025 Admit Card.
  • ​Final Seat Allotment Letter issued by MCC.
• ​Academic and Professional Certificates: 
  • ​MBBS/BDS Degree Certificate (or Provisional Certificate).
  • ​All MBBS/BDS Professional Examination Mark Sheets.
  • ​Internship Completion Certificate (must show completion by the eligibility deadline).
  • ​Permanent/Provisional Registration Certificate issued by NMC/DCI or State Medical/Dental Council.
• ​Personal and Category Documents:
  • ​Birth Certificate/Class X Certificate (for Date of Birth proof).
  • ​Valid Photo ID (Aadhaar/PAN/Driving License/Passport).
  • ​Category Certificate (SC/ST/OBC/EWS) issued by the competent authority, following Central Government proforma. OBC/EWS certificates must be valid for the current academic year.
  • ​Disability Certificate (if applicable).

​Strategizing for Round 2: The Next Battleground 

​For the thousands of candidates who did not secure an allotment in Round 1, or those who opted for the 'Float' option, the focus now shifts to Round 2 of the counselling process. This round is critical as it involves the seats surrendered or left vacant by Round 1 candidates.

• ​Round 2 Schedule Announcement: The MCC has published the schedule for Round 2, with the key dates being: 
  • ​Registration & Payment: December 2 – December 7, 2025.
  • ​Choice Filling & Locking: December 3 – December 7, 2025.
  • ​Result Declaration: December 10, 2025.
  • ​Reporting/Joining: December 11 – December 18, 2025.
• ​Eligibility for Round 2: Candidates eligible for Round 2 include: 
  • ​Those who were not allotted a seat in Round 1.
  • ​Those who exited Round 1 with a 'Free Exit' (not reported to the college).
  • ​Those who reported and joined in Round 1 but opted for 'Float' (upgradation).
• ​Vacant Seat Dynamics: The seats that were not joined in Round 1 (Free Exit seats) or those surrendered by candidates who paid the security amount will be added to the Round 2 seat matrix. Aspirants must carefully study the updated matrix, as many coveted clinical seats become available in Round 2 due to institutional or college preferences.

​Conclusion

​The finalization of the NEET PG 2025 Round 1 results, confirming 26,889 allotments, is a monumental step in the admissions process. While successful candidates must now race against time to complete their admission formalities by December 1, 2025, the release of the Round 2 schedule provides a clear roadmap for the remaining aspirants. The key to a successful outcome in this competitive environment lies in being informed, adhering strictly to the deadlines, and making a strategic, well-researched decision regarding the 'Freeze or Float' option for the upcoming rounds.
