Thinking about MD or MS in Uttarakhand? The seat matrix is the first document to study before you fill a single choice. It shows how many MD, MS, and Diploma seats exist, which colleges offer them and how the quota is split. Uttarakhand is a small PG state with a private-heavy seat base, so every seat and every rule matters more than in bigger states. This guide covers the 2026 seat position, a college-wise table, quota and domicile rules, category conversion, branch strategy and the HNBUMU counselling flow.

AIIMS Rishikesh, DNB and Other Seats
- AIIMS Rishikesh: It is an Institute of National Importance and fills MD/MS through INI-CET, not through NEET PG state counselling. Do not expect its seats in the HNBUMU matrix.
- PG Diploma: A small number of diploma seats are reported in some colleges. Check the official matrix.
- MDS: Some sources mention around 30 to 50 MDS seats handled under the same counselling. These are for dental graduates.
- DNB: A few sources list DNB seats. DNB is generally allotted through its own channel, so confirm which counselling covers the seat you want.

Uttarakhand NEET PG Counselling Process
Uttarakhand NEET PG counselling is conducted entirely online by HNBUMU for the 50% state quota, while MCC separately handles the 50% All India Quota seats. The broad steps are:
- Online Registration – Register on the official HNBUMU counselling portal and pay the registration fee.
- Document Upload – Upload the NEET PG scorecard, MBBS degree, internship completion certificate, domicile certificate (where applicable), and category certificates.
- Payment of Security Deposit – A security deposit is required to remain eligible for seat allotment.
- Choice Filling and Locking – Select and prioritize preferred colleges and courses, then lock choices before the deadline.
- Seat Allotment – Seats are allotted based on NEET PG rank, category, and the choices submitted.
- Reporting – Report to the allotted college with original documents and applicable fees within the specified window.
- Further Rounds – Round 2, mop-up, and stray vacancy rounds follow for any seats that remain vacant.
How to Use the Seat Matrix for Choice Filling
- Start with your rank, category, and domicile. Use the NEET PG College Predictor 2026 for a realistic range.
- List branches first, then colleges. The Branch Predictor can help.
- Mix safe, moderate, and reach choices across government and private colleges.
- Check seat counts. A branch with 1 or 2 seats is far more volatile than one with 10.
- Check quota and category. Make sure the seat is open to your domicile and category.
- Review every round. Update your list when a new matrix is out.
Documents Required
Keep scans ready before registration. Typical requirements include:
- NEET PG scorecard and admit card
- MBBS degree or provisional certificate, and internship completion certificate
- NMC or state medical council registration certificate
- MBBS mark sheets
- Uttarakhand domicile certificate (for state quota)
- Category certificate (SC / ST / OBC / EWS) in the prescribed format
- PwD certificate, if applicable
- Photographs, signature and ID proof
