The Centralised Admission Committee (CENTAC), Puducherry, has extended the last date for Round 3 registration and fee payment for UG NEET-based medical courses. The new deadline is 6 October 2026, 5:00 p.m. CENTAC has said no further extension will be given.

Why the deadline was extended

After MCC published its Round 3 allotment, new vacancies arose in CENTAC. The revised vacancy list for UG NEET courses is now available on the official CENTAC website.

Withdrawal of Round 1 / Round 2 admitted seats

Candidates who joined their allotted seat in Round 1 or Round 2 can resign or withdraw it. They must submit a Resignation Request Letter (Annexure 17 in the UG NEET Information Brochure) through the Candidate's Login Dashboard. The last date is also 6 October 2026, 5:00 p.m.

Candidates who withdraw will forfeit their registration fee.
