The NEET SS Counselling 2025 process will resume on June 1, 2026 , following an order from the Supreme Court. This decision allows for the continuation of admissions to super-specialty medical courses after a delay due to legal disputes over seat allocation and policy matters.
The Supreme Court's intervention resolves issues that had suspended the counselling rounds. Previously announced result dates of April 7, May 4, and July 28, 2026, were affected by this suspension.
Round 1 of the NEET SS counselling concluded successfully in March 2026. Subsequent rounds were paused pending a legal resolution.
FAIMA Intervention and Impact
The Federation of All India Medical Associations (FAIMA) engaged in dialogues with Health Ministry officials. These discussions aimed to expedite the counselling process. FAIMA stated that the process is nearing completion. Medical associations, including FORDA, support updating the counselling portal.
Doctors pursuing super-specialty training experienced significant psychological stress and financial losses due to the prolonged delay. FAIMA warned that this delay could lead to a shortage of specialists in India's healthcare system.
Resumed counselling is essential for maintaining a continuous supply of skilled medical personnel. This will improve medical care nationwide.
Next Steps for Candidates
Candidates should monitor the official website of the Medical Counselling Committee (MCC). The MCC website will publish official notifications and counselling dates.
Applicants must have all required admission documents prepared. The counselling portal is expected to reopen around June 1, 2026 . Candidates should verify all dates on the official MCC portal before making decisions.
