The National Board of Examinations in Medical Science (NBEMS) has released the Round 1 allotment results for the Post Diploma DNB seats for the 2026 academic session. The results are available on the official NBEMS counselling portal. This announcement impacts 1507 seats allocated across various Post Diploma DNB specialties nationwide.
Checking Your Allotment Status
Candidates can access their results by visiting the NBEMS counselling portal. Log in using your registered credentials. Navigate to the Round 1 allotment result section. Review your allotted seat details carefully. Download and save the seat allotment letter for future reference.
Next Steps After Seat Allotment
Candidates who wish to accept their allocated seat must select the Accept and Freeze option within the specified deadline. This action confirms their seat and disqualifies them from further counselling rounds. Following acceptance, candidates must download their allotment letter. Reporting to the allotted institute is mandatory by July 15, 2026, by 5 PM .
Those seeking a better seat can choose the Upgrade option. This choice reserves their current seat while allowing consideration in Round 2. If an upgrade is not secured, the candidate forfeits their chance to join in subsequent rounds. The first-year course fee paid will not be refunded in such cases.
