Odisha OJEE NEET UG 2026 —
Round 2 Allotment List Out, Discrepancy Window Today
OJEE published the Round 2 Provisional Allotted Candidates List (state-rank-wise) for MBBS/BDS on 12 September 2026 via Notice No. OJEE/0487, and a discrepancy window on that allotment is reported closing today, 13 September, at 5:00 PM. Earlier, OJEE revised its Round 1 schedule a second time on 20 August 2026 (Notice No. OJEE/430), then went further and re-revised the Final State Merit List itself on 24 August, after the 1st Phase Registration closed. Per that schedule, the 1st Round Provisional Allotment was released 24 August, and the objection window on it closed 25 August at 2:00 PM. The final 1st Round Allotment is expected around 26 August — check odishajee.com directly once it is out, since OJEE has not restated this date since the 20 August notice. Every current date below.

View Odisha MBBS Fees →The short version. OJEE, Odisha's state counselling authority, opened Notice No. OJEE/389 on 5 August 2026: the tentative schedule for State Quota MBBS/BDS counselling, session 2026-27. Registration ran 6 to 10 August 2026. The provisional State Merit List published 13 August. Round 1's schedule has since been revised twice — most recently by Notice No. OJEE/430, dated 20 August 2026 — and OJEE separately re-revised the Final State Merit List itself on 24 August, after the 1st Phase Registration closed. Per that schedule, the 1st Round Provisional Allotment was released 24 August, the objection window on it closed 25 August at 2:00 PM, and the final 1st Round Allotment is expected around 26 August, with admission and reporting running 28 August to 6 September. Round 2 and Round 3 dates as previously published (8 September and 25 September) have not been restated in this revision and should be treated as provisional. Only Odisha State Natives are eligible for state quota seats — candidates from other states may apply only for NRI quota seats. A State Rank is mandatory to participate at all.
Update, 13 September. OJEE published the Round 2 Provisional Allotted Candidates List (state-rank-wise) for MBBS/BDS, Notice No. OJEE/0487, dated 12 September 2026. A discrepancy window on this provisional allotment is reported closing today, 13 September, at 5:00 PM — but that specific deadline is sourced from a secondary channel, not from a separately dated OJEE notice we have located, so confirm the exact cut-off directly with OJEE before it passes.
Round 2 Allotment List Out —
Discrepancy Window Closes Today
OJEE has published the Round 2 Provisional Allotted Candidates List (state-rank-wise) for MBBS/BDS. Notice No. OJEE/0487, dated 12 September 2026, covers eligible candidates who filled choices as per the rules for Round 2, with individual statuses recorded as FREEZE, RETAIN, or fresh allotment in Round 2. This is a primary, numbered, dated OJEE document — we do not reproduce any candidate's application number, NEET AIR/state rank, or individual allotment/category detail here; check your own row directly on odishajee.com or ojee.nic.in.
Separately, a discrepancy-window deadline is being reported: today, 13 September 2026, by 5:00 PM, for raising discrepancies related to this provisional allotment. That specific deadline comes from a secondary counselling-update channel, not from a separately dated and numbered OJEE notice we have been able to locate — so treat it as plausible (a next-day discrepancy window after a 12 September list is standard OJEE practice) but not independently confirmed word-for-word. If you believe your allotment has an error, don't wait on our confirmation — raise it with OJEE today, before 5 PM, and verify the correct channel for doing so directly with OJEE.
Live update · 8 August 2026 · Notice No. OJEE/0401
If you hold both Gen-EWS and Odisha SEBC, you must pick one — and the choice is final. OJEE issued a notice on 8 August for NEET-UG 2026 candidates entering state counselling for Odisha state quota seats. It applies to anyone who applied under Gen-EWS in their NEET-UG application and also holds a valid SEBC certificate issued by the competent authority of the Government of Odisha.
| Requirement | What it means |
|---|---|
| Category declaration | During online registration for OJEE state counselling, you must explicitly declare your final category choice — Gen-EWS or SEBC. Not both. |
| Document verification | Choosing SEBC means producing a valid SEBC certificate issued by the competent authority of the Government of Odisha. A certificate from another state does not work here. |
| Binding choice | The category selected at OJEE registration is treated as final. No request for a category change will be entertained at a later stage, under any circumstances. |
The state merit list and seat allotment are generated from whichever category you declare. Claiming benefit under both simultaneously is not permitted. Work out which one gives you the better position before you open the registration form, because the form is where the decision gets locked — there is no correction window for this.
The comparison is not obvious. Gen-EWS and SEBC cut-offs move differently year to year and by college, and the seat counts differ. If you hold both certificates and are unsure, work through the previous year's closing ranks for both categories at the colleges you actually want, rather than assuming reserved is automatically better.
Odisha State Quota Is
Odisha Domicile Only
OJEE's own notice states this without hedging: only NEET UG 2026 qualified candidates who are Odisha State Natives are eligible for the state quota MBBS and BDS seats. Candidates from other states may be eligible for NRI quota seats only, and the notice tells candidates directly to ensure their own eligibility before registering — nobody is going to check for you in advance and tell you not to bother.
The honest read for a Northeast India candidate. Without Odisha domicile, this state quota schedule is not your door. The 15% All India Quota through MCC remains open regardless of home state, and Odisha's NRI quota seats are the only other route this notice mentions — a narrower, fee-heavy path that needs its own verification with OJEE directly. MCC's own schedule →
Revised twice, then the merit list itself re-revised · OJEE/420 (16 Aug), OJEE/430 (20 Aug), Re-Revised Final State Merit List (24 Aug)
OJEE first revised its schedule on 16 August (Notice OJEE/420), stating plainly: “With the modification in MCC counselling schedule for All India Quota Seats counselling process, a minor revision has been made to the tentative schedule” published on 5 August (OJEE/398). Then, on 20 August, Notice No. OJEE/430 revised Round 1 a second time, citing both MCC's further modification and a revision to the State Quota Seats Schedule published 19 August. This time even the 1st Round Allotment date itself moved — from 22 to 26 August — which had held steady through the first revision. On 24 August, after 1st Phase Registration closed, OJEE went a step further and published a “Re-Revised Final State Merit List for MBBS/BDS Admission 2026-27” — so candidates should check their rank and category against this newest list, not the one published 14 August. Every step from choice filling onward is marked in red in the table below.

The Round 2 vacant-seat display date (31 August, per the first revision) sits inside the new Round 1 admission window (28 August – 6 September). OJEE's 20 August notice revises Round 1 only and states everything else from OJEE/398 stays unchanged — it does not address this overlap. Treat Round 2 dates as provisional and confirm directly on ojee.nic.in once Round 1 reporting concludes; a College-wise Reporting Schedule is still promised separately, in due course.

Largely resolved, 10 September — OJEE's own document now confirms the schedule shifted. A secondary counselling-update channel had, for two consecutive days, described Odisha's Round 2 registration and then choice-filling/locking as running roughly a week later than the 2–6 September dates shown in the table above, which came from OJEE's own originally published schedule. We now have OJEE's own primary-source document corroborating that claim: OJEE published a Provisional State Merit List for MBBS/BDS Admission 2026-27, explicitly titled “After 2nd Phase Registration,” dated 10 September 2026 — direct, portal-sourced evidence that OJEE's own Round 2 (2nd Phase) process genuinely ran later than the table above states, not merely a secondary channel's claim. The same channel's latest figures put Round 2 choice filling and locking at 10 September, 2:30 PM, to 11 September, 4 PM — consistent with, and now supported by, the 10 September merit-list date. We have still not located OJEE's own schedule-revision notice restating these exact hours, so we report the choice-filling window as corroborated rather than independently confirmed word-for-word. The Provisional State Merit List itself lists individual candidates by application number, domicile, category and rank across NEET/State/EWS/SC/ST and other reservation columns — we do not reproduce any candidate's row here; check your own name and rank directly on odishajee.com or ojee.nic.in. The same secondary channel also lists two Round 2 in-person steps not shown in OJEE's table above: document verification for PC/PwBD-category candidates, and for Ex-Servicemen-category candidates — consistent with the same category-wise Medical Assessment Board and ES Board process OJEE ran during Round 1 registration. Confirm venue and time for either step directly with OJEE before travelling.
Update, 11 September · Notice No. OJEE/0483, Dated 10 September 2026
OJEE has now spelled out exactly who can fill or modify choices for a Round 2 (85% State Quota) seat. Only four categories of candidate can act: (1) candidates not allotted any seat in Round 1 must give a fresh consent of “Yes” before they can fill or modify choices for Round 2; (2) candidates allotted a seat in Round 1 but who did not physically report must fill fresh choices — their previous choices are treated as null and void; (3) candidates who withdrew from the counselling process for any reason and now want to participate again in Round 2 can do so by giving a fresh consent of “Yes”; and (4) newly-registered Round 2 candidates fill choices as per seat availability and the published schedule.
Two things to note carefully. Candidates who were allotted a seat in Round 1 and physically reported at the OJEE Office, Gandamunda, cannot modify or fill choices in any further round — that seat is treated as settled. Candidates allotted a seat in Round 1 who did not physically report are treated as Non-Reported candidates and will not be considered in further rounds unless they give a fresh consent of “Yes” to fill fresh choices and participate again.

A State Rank is mandatory to participate in state counselling for every State Quota Seat under Odisha's MBBS/BDS courses — there is no route into this process without one. College-wise reporting schedule is notified separately, in due course, once allotment for each round is out.
Odisha Joint Entrance Examination (OJEE), Notice No. OJEE/389, dated 5 August 2026: “Tentative Counselling Schedule for Qualified NEET UG-2026 Candidates for Admission to MBBS/BDS Course Under State Quota Seats.” Revised by Notice No. OJEE/420, dated 16 August 2026, and again by Notice No. OJEE/430, dated 20 August 2026 (“2nd Revised 1st Round Counselling Activities for Admission to MBBS/BDS Course Under State Quota Seats”), both citing modifications to MCC's own All India Quota counselling schedule. A revised list of PwBD (PwD/PC)-eligible candidates followed on 19 August, and a further notice, “Re-Revised Final State Merit List for MBBS/BDS Admission 2026-27 (After 1st Phase Registration),” was published on 24 August 2026. Notice No. OJEE/0483, dated 10 September 2026, then set out Round 2 choice-fill eligibility, and Notice No. OJEE/0487, dated 12 September 2026, is the Round 2 Provisional Allotted Candidates List (state-rank-wise) for MBBS/BDS — the most recent numbered notice found as of this page's last check. A discrepancy-window deadline of today, 13 September 2026, 5:00 PM, on that provisional allotment is being reported by a secondary counselling-update channel; we have not located a separately dated and numbered OJEE notice confirming that exact deadline, so treat it as plausible but unconfirmed until OJEE's own portal states it directly. Signed by the Chairman, OJEE. Registration and updates at ojee.nic.in and odishajee.com; email odishaojee@gmail.com. The notice is explicitly titled tentative — verify every date directly before you act, and expect the schedule to move.
How to use this page. Every date here was checked against the official counselling authority's own website, odishajee.com, on 25 August 2026, against Notice No. OJEE/430 (20 August) and the Re-Revised Final State Merit List notice (24 August); rechecked 8 and 9 September 2026, when a secondary channel's claims about the Round 2 registration and choice-filling deadlines — both roughly a week later than OJEE's own posted schedule — could not be matched against a fresh OJEE notice; and rechecked again 10 September 2026, when OJEE's own Provisional State Merit List, dated 10 September and titled “After 2nd Phase Registration,” corroborated that the schedule genuinely shifted later, though OJEE's own revision notice itself still has not been located; and rechecked again 11 September 2026, against OJEE Notice No. OJEE/0483, dated 10 September, which set out Round 2 choice-fill eligibility; and rechecked again 13 September 2026, against OJEE Notice No. OJEE/0487, dated 12 September, the Round 2 Provisional Allotted Candidates List, alongside a secondary channel's unconfirmed report of a discrepancy-window deadline closing today, 13 September, at 5:00 PM. State authorities extend and revise deadlines at short notice, sometimes with only a few hours' warning, so treat this page as a starting point and confirm the current date on the official portal before you pay any fee.

We are not an agent of any counselling authority, we cannot influence any allotment, and no seat in India can be obtained without a valid NEET UG 2026 score.
Questions Parents Ask Us
Yes. OJEE's Notice No. OJEE/0487, dated 12 September 2026, is the Round 2 Provisional Allotted Candidates List (state-rank-wise) for MBBS/BDS — a primary, numbered OJEE document covering eligible candidates who filled choices as per the rules, with statuses recorded as FREEZE, RETAIN, or fresh allotment in Round 2. Separately, a discrepancy window for raising issues with this provisional allotment is being reported as closing today, 13 September 2026, by 5:00 PM — but that specific deadline comes from a secondary counselling-update channel, not from a separately dated OJEE notice we have been able to locate, so treat it as plausible but not independently confirmed. We do not look up or reproduce any candidate's individual application number, rank, or allotment here — check your own row directly on odishajee.com or ojee.nic.in.
Per OJEE Notice No. OJEE/0483, dated 10 September 2026, only four categories of registered/state-merit-listed candidates can fill or modify their choices for a Round 2 seat allotment: (1) candidates who were not allotted any seat in Round 1 must give a fresh consent of “Yes” before they can fill or modify choices for Round 2; (2) candidates who were allotted a seat in Round 1 but did not physically report must fill fresh choices, since their previous choices are treated as null and void; (3) candidates who withdrew from the counselling process for any reason and now want to participate again in Round 2 can do so by giving a fresh consent of “Yes”; and (4) candidates newly registering in Round 2 must fill choices as per seat availability and the published schedule. OJEE is explicit on two further points: candidates who were allotted a seat in Round 1 AND physically reported at the OJEE Office, Gandamunda, cannot modify or fill any choices in any further round; and candidates allotted a seat in Round 1 who did NOT physically report are treated as Non-Reported candidates and will not be considered in further rounds unless they give a fresh consent of “Yes” to fill fresh choices and participate again.
The Odisha Joint Entrance Examination authority, which runs state medical counselling for Odisha. Notice No. OJEE/389, dated 5 August 2026, is the Tentative Counselling Schedule for qualified NEET UG 2026 candidates seeking MBBS/BDS admission under State Quota Seats for the 2026-27 session — covering registration through to a stray vacancy round in October.
Only for NRI quota seats. The notice states plainly that only Odisha State Natives are eligible for the state quota MBBS and BDS seats; candidates from other states may be eligible only for NRI quota seats, and candidates are told to confirm their own eligibility before registering. If you don't hold Odisha domicile, this is not an open door the way the 15% All India Quota is.
6 August 2026 at 5:00 PM, closing 10 August 2026 at 11:59 PM, alongside uploading documents for online verification. PwD/PC candidates and Ex-Serviceman-category candidates have a separate, mandatory in-person step in the same window — the PwD/PC Medical Assessment Board sits at SCB Medical College, Cuttack, and the ES Board sits at Rajya Sainik Board, IRC Village, Nayapalli, Bhubaneswar, both on 10 and 11 August 2026.
You lose the reservation, not just the appointment. OJEE's own notice states this without qualification: candidates missing the dates to appear before the applicable Medical Assessment Board or Ex-Serviceman board shall be deprived of getting PwD or ES reservations. There is no mention of a makeup date in this notice.
Three full rounds plus a stray vacancy round, running from registration in early August into October 2026. After OJEE's second revision (Notice No. OJEE/430, dated 20 August 2026) and a further Re-Revised Final State Merit List published 24 August, the 1st Round Provisional Allotment was released 24 August, the objection window on it closed 25 August at 2:00 PM, and the final 1st Round Allotment is expected around 26 August, with admission and reporting running 28 August to 6 September. Round 2 and Round 3 dates as previously published (8 September and 25 September) have not been restated in this revision and may themselves shift given the later Round 1 reporting window — confirm at odishajee.com rather than assume. Each round has its own registration window for candidates who didn't get in earlier, so a slow start in Round 1 is not necessarily the end of the road — but each successive round is also thinner on seats.
