The high-stakes journey of NEET PG 2025 reaches a critical juncture today, December 27, 2025. Following the closure of the physical reporting window for Round 2 on Christmas Day, participating medical institutes across India have transitioned into the administrative phase of the admission cycle. This stage is vital for the Medical Counselling Committee (MCC) to determine the "Clear Vacancies" that will be carried forward to the upcoming Round 3, also known as the Mop-Up phase.
Finalization of Round 2 Admissions and Institute Actions
With the reporting window closed, medical colleges are now under strict directives to finalize their databases. The integrity of the next round depends on the accuracy of this data submission.
- Data Uploading: Colleges must upload the details of all joined candidates on the MCC portal by the designated cutoff.
- Verification: Authorities are cross-referencing physical document sets with the online allotments to ensure no discrepancies remain.
- Resignation Facility: For candidates who joined but wish to vacate, the resignation window typically closes shortly after reporting to allow for an updated seat matrix.
- Admission Slips: Only candidates who received a system-generated admission slip from their respective colleges are considered officially admitted.

Essential Checklist for Round 3 Aspirants
As the vacancy list becomes clearer, candidates who did not secure a seat or opted for "Yes-Upgradation" in Round 2 should prepare for the next phase of choice filling.
- Review Vacancy Matrix: Analyze the newly added seats and those left vacant by non-reporting candidates from Round 2.
- Document Readiness: Ensure that original certificates are readily available, especially for those moving from state quota to AIQ rounds.
- Security Deposit: Be aware of the forfeiture rules; candidates who were allotted seats in Round 2 but failed to report may need to register fresh for subsequent rounds depending on the specific MCC guidelines for 2025.
Conclusion
The completion of the Round 2 reporting phase marks the stabilization of a significant portion of postgraduate medical seats for this academic year. As colleges wrap up the data submission process, the focus shifts entirely to the Round 3 and Stray Vacancy rounds, where the remaining seats will be contested. Candidates are strongly advised to keep a close watch on the official MCC portal (mcc.nic.in) for the final seat matrix and the commencement of the next registration window.
