The reporting window for INI CET Nov 2025 Round 1 officially closed on December 24. While thousands of aspirants have completed their physical document verification at premier medical institutes, official seat acceptance statistics are currently being compiled. This update covers the mandatory next steps for candidates, the anticipated timeline for Round 2 allotment, and guidance for monitoring official AIIMS portals for upcoming merit list shifts.

The All India Institute of Medical Sciences (AIIMS), New Delhi, has officially concluded the mandatory reporting and document verification phase for the INI CET November 2025 Round 1 seat allocation. Following the seat allotment result published on December 18, candidates were given a strict window from December 19 to December 24, 2025, to secure their admissions. As the deadline passed yesterday, participating Institutes of National Importance (INIs) have begun consolidating aggregate data to determine the final vacancy matrix for subsequent rounds.
Status of Round 1 Reporting and Acceptance
With the reporting portal now closed, the focus shifts to the official seat acceptance statistics. While the final count of joined candidates is pending, preliminary trends suggest high engagement across clinical specialties in top-tier institutes like AIIMS New Delhi and PGIMER Chandigarh.
- Candidates had to choose between "Option 1" (Accept and Freeze) or "Option 2" (Accept and Upgrade).
- Physical presence at the allotted institute was mandatory for all successful allottees to verify original certificates.
- Non-reporting during this period results in the automatic forfeiture of the allotted seat and disqualification from Round 2.
- Participating colleges are currently uploading joining reports to the centralized AIIMS server to finalize the "Vacant Seat Position."
Key Timeline for INI CET Nov 2025 Session
The transition from Round 1 to Round 2 is critical for aspirants aiming for institutional upgrades. The following table outlines the timeline as established for this session:

Essential Next Steps for Aspirants
As the academic community awaits the publication of the Round 1 data, candidates who opted for upgrades and those who were not allotted seats in the first round must stay proactive. The "Accept and Upgrade" status requires constant monitoring of the portal to ensure no additional choice-filling requirements are missed.
- Review Allotment Status: Candidates should download their updated dashboards to confirm if their joining has been successfully marked by the college.
- Monitor Official Portals: Frequent checks on aiimsexams.ac.in are necessary for the "Information Brochure" regarding the Open Round.
- Documentation Readiness: Candidates moving into Round 2 or the Open Round should keep a secondary set of self-attested documents ready to avoid delays.
In conclusion, the successful completion of Round 1 reporting marks a significant milestone in the January 2026 academic cycle. While the initial surge of admissions has settled, the competitive landscape for vacant seats will become clearer once AIIMS releases the formal statistical breakdown. Candidates are strongly advised to regularly monitor the official AIIMS examination portal and their registered email IDs for specific notifications regarding the Round 2 merit list and institutional joining instructions.
