MCC Allows Resignation for NEET PG Round-1 Seats: Here’s What Students Should Know

For many medical students in India, getting a postgraduate seat after MBBS is a big dream. To make this dream come true, students need to participate in NEET PG counselling. The counselling process for PG seats is handled by MCC (Medical Counselling Committee) for All India Quota seats. Recently, MCC released an important notice that every NEET PG candidate must understand carefully.

The notice talks about resignation of Round-1 PG seats. If you are confused about what resignation means and how it will affect your admission, don’t worry. Let’s make it simple so that even a 10th-class student can understand it.

What Did MCC Announce?

On 08 December 2025, MCC announced that candidates who want to leave (resign) their Round-1 PG seats allotted through the All India Quota will be allowed to resign. The notice came because several states requested a delay in the All India Quota Round-2 counselling due to delays in their own state counselling.

Because of these delays, many students who got seats in Round-1 through MCC also got seats through state counselling. These students wanted to choose state counselling seats instead. To help them, MCC has officially allowed students to resign their Round-1 seats.

Why Is Resignation Important?

Imagine a student gets a seat in a college they don’t like in Round-1. Later, during state counselling, they get a better seat closer to home or in their preferred branch. Such a student will naturally want to leave the first seat and take the new one.

MCC allows this because:

✔ It gives students the freedom to choose a better option
✔ The vacant seat can go to another deserving student
✔ It helps colleges and students complete admission smoothly

So, resignation is not a negative thing. It simply means choosing the best available option.

Resignation Dates and Timings

The resignation window will be open on:

📌 08 December 2025 (Monday)
🕓 From 04:00 PM to 06:00 PM

📌 10 December 2025 (Wednesday)
🕓 Up to 06:00 PM

Students who want to resign must do it online, using the official portal.

What Should Students Do After Resignation?

Once resignation is approved:

🔸 Students must wait for state counselling seat allocation
🔸 They must leave the allotted college immediately (vacate the seat)
🔸 The college will update the resignation on the MCC portal

⚠ Warning: If a college does not enter your resignation on the MCC portal, the resignation will be treated as null and void (invalid). This means the student will still be considered a part of that college.

So, students should carefully follow up with the college and make sure the process is completed correctly.

Common Questions Students Have

1. Will I still be able to participate in the next counselling round?

Yes. If your resignation is accepted properly, you can take part in your state counselling and future rounds.

2. Will I lose my fees?

It depends on the college’s refund rules. Some colleges deduct processing fees, while others return the amount. Always check before resigning.

3. What if I miss the deadline?

If you miss the resignation deadline, you may lose the chance to change your seat. You will be locked into Round-1.
