The NEET UG 2025 Counselling remains on hold with a critical Madhya Pradesh High Court hearing set for July 10, 2025, concerning re-test pleas. Stay informed on mcc.nic.in and nta.ac.in for updates affecting MBBS/BDS admissions and your Higher Education path.

The future of NEET UG 2025 counselling for MBBS and BDS admissions across India continues to hang in the balance, as medical aspirants eagerly await clarity on the schedule. While the National Testing Agency (NTA) declared the NEET UG 2025 results on June 14, 2025, the counselling process, typically managed by the Medical Counselling Committee (MCC), has been delayed due to ongoing legal matters. A pivotal development is expected in just three days, with the Madhya Pradesh High Court scheduled to hear pleas related to a re-test order on July 10, 2025.

The primary reason for the current uncertainty stems from a recent order by the Madhya Pradesh High Court's Indore bench. This order directed the NTA to conduct a re-test for a limited number of medical aspirants (specifically those who filed petitions before June 3, 2025) who claimed their performance in the May 4, 2025, examination was severely impacted by power outages at certain centers in Indore and Ujjain. While a Division Bench of the MP High Court later stayed this re-test order on an appeal by the NTA, it also clarified that any counselling conducted on or after July 1, 2025, would remain subject to the final outcome of these petitions. This makes the upcoming July 10th hearing critical for determining the immediate next steps for counselling.

Adding to the legal complexities, the Supreme Court, just two days ago (July 5, 2025), dismissed a plea challenging the NEET UG 2025 results over an alleged error in one of the questions in the final answer key. The Apex Court reiterated its stance of not interfering with a national-level examination based on individual grievances, especially when it involves the careers of lakhs of students. While this particular challenge will not impact the counselling, the pending re-test matter in the Madhya Pradesh High Court continues to be a hurdle.

 

What This Means for Medical Aspirants:

The outcome of the July 10, 2025, hearing will be crucial. If the stay on the re-test order is lifted or a clear directive is issued, it could pave the way for the MCC to release the much-awaited NEET UG 2025 counselling schedule. Conversely, any further complications could prolong the delay, impacting the academic calendar for medical colleges across the country.

Uncertainty Prevails: For the vast majority of medical aspirants who have qualified for NEET UG 2025, this period is marked by considerable anxiety and uncertainty regarding the commencement of their Higher Education journey in MBBS and BDS programs.

Central vs. State Counselling: The MCC conducts counselling for the 15% All India Quota (AIQ) seats in government medical/dental colleges, 100% seats in Central/Deemed Universities, AIIMS, JIPMER, and others. Simultaneously, state counselling authorities manage admissions for the remaining 85% state quota seats. While state counselling typically begins after the MCC schedule is out, delays at the central level often ripple down.

 

Advice for Aspirants During the Delay:

Given the current situation, medical aspirants are advised to:

  • Stay Updated on Official Channels: Regularly check the official websites of the Medical Counselling Committee (mcc.nic.in) and the National Testing Agency (nta.ac.in) for any official announcements regarding the counselling schedule.
  • Prepare Documents: Use this time to meticulously gather and prepare all necessary documents required for NEET UG counselling. This includes NEET UG 2025 admit card and scorecard, Class 10th and 12th mark sheets and certificates, valid ID proof, domicile certificate, caste/category certificate (if applicable), and passport-sized photographs. Having these ready will prevent last-minute rushes once the schedule is released.
  • Research Colleges and Courses: Continue researching various medical colleges (both government and private) and their respective MBBS/BDS programs. Understand previous years' cut-offs, fee structures, and campus facilities to make informed choices during the counselling's choice-filling stage.
  • Remain Patient: While the delay is frustrating, it's important to remain patient and avoid relying on unverified information from unofficial sources. The authorities are working through the legal complexities to ensure a fair admission process.

The medical education landscape for the 2025-26 academic year hinges significantly on the outcome of the upcoming court hearing. Medical aspirants must remain vigilant and prepared for the counselling process to commence as soon as a clear path emerges.
