- Pay the applicable resignation penalty according to the candidate category.

Candidates should retain the acknowledgement and payment records for future reference.
What Happens After MP NEET UG Round 2 Resignation?
Candidates considering resignation should first check the consequences under the latest DME MP counselling rules.
