Eligibility Criteria

To participate in Sikkim NEET PG counselling 2026, candidates must meet the following conditions:

• Qualify NEET PG 2026 with the minimum qualifying percentile for the applicable category.
• Hold an MBBS degree recognised by the NMC.
• Hold permanent or provisional registration with the NMC or a State Medical Council.
• Complete the compulsory rotatory internship on or before September 30, 2026.
• For State Quota seats, hold a valid Sikkim domicile/Certificate of Identification as per HRDD norms.
• Be an Indian citizen; Management/NRI quota seats follow SMU’s separate NRI eligibility rules.

How to Apply for Sikkim NEET PG Counselling

1. Register online on the official Sikkim HRDD counselling portal (for State Quota) or through MCC’s mcc.nic.in (for AIQ seats), using your NEET PG 2026 roll number.
2. Upload documents – scanned copies of your NEET PG scorecard, MBBS certificate, internship completion certificate, and Sikkim domicile certificate (if applying under State Quota).
3. Pay the registration/counselling fee applicable to your quota category.
4. Fill in your choices – select MD/MS/Diploma courses at SMIMS in order of preference.
5. Check the seat allotment result, published round-wise by MCC or the state authority.
6. Report to SMIMS within the notified reporting window and complete document verification and admission formalities.

Documents Required

Candidates should keep the following documents ready (originals and photocopies):

• MBBS Certificate and MBBS mark sheets (1st, 2nd and 3rd year).
• Medical Registration Certificate.
• Internship Completion Certificate.
• Photo ID proof – Aadhaar Card/Passport/PAN Card/Driving License.
• Birth Certificate (if date of birth is not on the HSC mark sheet).
• NEET PG 2026 Scorecard and Admit Card.
• Online Counselling Registration Certificate.
• Sikkim domicile/Certificate of Identification, for State Quota applicants.
• Sponsorship Certificate from the State Govt., if applicable.
• Passport-size photographs (8 copies).

How to Use the Seat Matrix for Choice Filling

• Check branch-wise seat availability at SMIMS across MD, MS, and Diploma courses before filling choices.
• Match your quota eligibility – confirm whether you qualify for AIQ, Sikkim State Quota, or Management/NRI quota seats.
• Compare bond and stipend conditions against other North-Eastern and small-state options using the NEET PG seat matrix hub page.
• Use previous-round cutoff trends to gauge whether your NEET PG 2026 rank is realistic for your preferred branch.
• Keep domicile documents ready in advance, since State Quota seats require Sikkim residency proof at the registration stage itself.
• Recheck the latest round-wise matrix before locking choices, as seat numbers can shift between rounds.

Common Mistakes to Avoid

• Assuming SMIMS has government seats – all PG seats here are at a private institute functioning across AIQ, State and Management quotas.
• Applying for State Quota without valid Sikkim domicile documents.
• Confusing SMIMS’s MBBS seat count with its separate, much smaller PG seat count.
• Missing the choice-locking or reporting deadline due to the short counselling window typical of single-college states.
• Relying on an old seat matrix instead of the current round’s official figures.
