In neet pg 2024 counselling I was allotted dnb orthopedic in 3rd round... after 10-12 days of joining i resigned that seat and appeared in this neet pg and got a rank Will I be eligible for neetpg counselling for md/ms seat????

Hello! Yes, you are eligible to participate in NEET PG counselling for MD/MS seats even if you previously joined a DNB course and resigned after 10 to 12 days. NEET PG counselling rules allow candidates who have left a DNB seat to reappear and opt for MD/MS seats, as long as they meet the eligibility criteria and have a valid NEET PG rank for the current year. However, you must disclose your earlier admission and resignation during the counselling process, and your previous joining will be recorded. Make sure to complete all required formalities and document submissions on time to secure a seat in the desired MD/MS course.

Hello Aspirant,

Yes - if you resigned from the DNB Orthopedics seat (once joined), you are still eligible to appear for NEET PG, and apply for MD/MS seats in counselling, if you meet the regular eligibility criteria (NEET PG qualification, MBBS degree, internship, medical registration, etc.). Once a DNB seat is joined - even if resigned - you cannot rejoin or take another DNB seat for the entire duration of that training course, as per NBE rules

Yes, you will be eligible. As per MCC and NBE rules, if you resign your allotted seat within the prescribed time (before Round 3 joining deadline or before the resignation cut-off date), you remain eligible for next year’s counselling.

Since you already resigned and gave NEET PG 2025 again, you can participate in MD/MS counselling without any issue. Only if someone did not resign properly (or left after the resignation deadline), then they face a one-year ban.

thank you!
