Delhi NEET UG Counselling 2026: Dates, Eligibility, Application Process & Seat Allotment

Last Updated on April 17, 2026

The Delhi NEET UG Counselling 2026 is the highly competitive admission process for medical aspirants seeking MBBS and BDS seats in the National Capital Territory (NCT) of Delhi. Unlike other states, Delhi's 85% state quota counselling is uniquely divided and administered by two primary authorities based on university affiliation:

  • Delhi University (DU) Quota: The Medical Counselling Committee (MCC) conducts the counselling for the 85% institutional quota seats of DU-affiliated colleges (like MAMC, LHMC, and UCMS) as well as central institutes like VMMC and ABVIMS.

  • Guru Gobind Singh Indraprastha University (GGSIPU) Quota: GGSIPU conducts its own state counselling for the 85% state quota seats in colleges affiliated with it (such as NDMC Medical College, Dr. BSA Hospital, and ACMS).

Admissions are granted strictly on the basis of the merit and scores obtained in the National Eligibility cum Entrance Test (NEET UG) 2026.
