Odisha NEET Allotment 2026: State Rank and NEET Rank Details
State rank and NEET rank are different ranking measures. The state rank indicates a candidate’s position in the Odisha state counselling merit list, whereas the NEET rank refers to the candidate’s rank in the NEET examination.
The following ranges are reported in the supplied allotment draft.
| College | Course | Odisha state rank | NEET rank |
|---|---|---|---|
| SCB Dental College, Cuttack | BDS | 1337 | 40535 |
| Hi-Tech Medical College, Bhubaneswar | MBBS | 1523 | 47341 |
| DRIEMS, Hairapari | MBBS | 1862–2224 | 61933–80635 |
| Hi-Tech Dental College, Bhubaneswar | BDS | 3463–4917 | 198209–502652 |
These figures represent reported allotments in this particular round. They are not official cutoffs for the next admission year.
Candidates should also compare their complete details with the original PDF. If a rank appears with a decimal or an unusual format, follow the official document rather than rounding it yourself.

What do these ranks tell candidates?
The reported allotments show that all four MBBS seats went to candidates with state ranks between 1523 and 2224. BDS allotments extended to state rank 4917 at Hi-Tech Dental College.
However, the number of seats available in a physical stray round is very small. Allotment depends on the vacancies remaining at the time of counselling, candidate merit, eligibility and applicable category rules.
A candidate with a similar NEET rank in another year cannot assume that the same college or course will be available.
What Is the Physical Stray Vacancy Round?
The physical stray vacancy round is a counselling stage used to fill eligible vacant MBBS and BDS seats remaining after earlier counselling and admission activities.
Unlike a regular online choice-filling process, a physical counselling round may require candidates to attend the specified venue in person and participate according to the authority’s published rules.
For Odisha NEET UG 2026, OJEE published separate notices covering the physical spot-round schedule, counselling modalities, revised vacancy position and final allotment. These documents should be read together because each serves a different purpose.
You can find them on the official OJEE Medical Notice page (ojee.nic.in/medical-notice).
Important distinction
The physical counselling schedule tells candidates when and how to participate. The allotment list identifies the candidates who received seats. The admission instructions explain what successful candidates must do next.
Do not treat these documents as interchangeable.
How the Physical Stray Round Schedule Changed
The supplied draft records the following sequence of events:
- 23 October 2026: Notice OJEE/626 reportedly changed the planned physical spot-round date.
- 24 October 2026: The first vacancy list reportedly showed 12 seats.
- 26 October 2026: The revised vacancy position reportedly increased the total to 14 seats.
- 26 October 2026: The physical stray-round allotment notice was published, according to the supplied draft.
The draft also states that the physical round was moved from 24 October to 26 October because reporting for the upgradation allotment was not complete.
Candidates who need to confirm the precise schedule or category-wise timings should consult the relevant notices on OJEE’s official website rather than rely solely on this summary.
Who Was Eligible for the Physical Spot Round?
Eligibility depends on the official counselling modalities and the candidate’s admission status.
According to the rules summarised in the supplied draft:
- Candidates included in the revised final Odisha state merit list were eligible, subject to the applicable conditions.
- Candidates who received a seat in the stray round or upgradation process but failed to report were not eligible for the physical round.
- Candidates already admitted during the stray vacancy process could participate for an upgrade only if permitted under the published rules.
- Participation did not guarantee a seat. Allotment depended on merit, eligibility and seat availability.
Because eligibility can be affected by earlier allotments, reporting status and participation in other counselling processes, candidates should read the official modalities before taking any action.
What Should Allotted Candidates Do Next?
If your NEET application number appears in the physical stray-round allotment list, follow these steps.
1. Confirm your allotment
Check the application number, allotted college, course, category and rank shown in the official document. Make sure you have opened the correct notice for the 2026–27 session.
2. Obtain the required allotment letter
Keep the allotment-cum-admission letter signed by the OJEE authority, as required by the notice. A screenshot of the allotment list may not be accepted as a substitute.
3. Contact the allotted college
Ask the admission office about the reporting location, required originals and photocopies, fee payment process and any additional institutional requirements.
4. Arrange the documents and fees
Prepare the required certificates and confirm the exact amount and permitted payment method before travelling. The supplied draft states that a bank draft in favour of OJEE, payable at Bhubaneswar, was required under the relevant modalities. Verify that instruction against the applicable notice.
5. Complete admission formalities
Report within the period directed by the authority and institution. Obtain an admission acknowledgement or receipt and retain copies of all submitted documents.
Do not delay: The supplied allotment details state that candidates must report immediately, without specifying a separate calendar deadline. Contact your allotted college promptly to establish the applicable reporting arrangements.
Documents Required for Odisha MBBS/BDS Admission
The supplied draft lists the following documents under the physical-round counselling modalities. Candidates should confirm the final checklist with OJEE and the allotted institution.
- Signed allotment-cum-admission letter
- Valid identity proof
- Higher Secondary certificate or birth certificate, as applicable
- Plus Two mark sheet
- Plus Two pass certificate
- Category certificate, where applicable
- Residential or nativity certificate
- College Leaving Certificate (CLC) or transfer certificate
- Required admission fee in the prescribed payment form
- Original documents supporting an NRI claim, where applicable
Carry the original documents and the required photocopy sets. Keep scanned copies for your records, but do not assume digital copies will replace originals when the rules require physical verification.
If a required certificate is missing, contact the institution before reporting. Do not assume that an undertaking or a later submission will be accepted unless the authority permits it.
MBBS and BDS Fees for Odisha NEET Counselling 2026
The following annual fee figures appear in the supplied draft’s summary of OJEE’s counselling modalities.
| Institution type or college | Course | Reported annual fee |
|---|---|---|
| Government medical or dental colleges | MBBS/BDS | ₹37,950 |
| Hi-Tech Medical College, Bhubaneswar | MBBS | ₹11,56,000 |
| Hi-Tech Medical College, Rourkela | MBBS | ₹8,54,000 |
| DRIEMS Institute of Health Sciences and Hospital | MBBS | ₹9,08,000 |
| Hi-Tech Dental College | BDS | ₹3,00,000 |
The supplied draft also reports a university registration fee of ₹3,500 and states that NRI candidates pay four times the applicable private-college fees.
Fee warning: These amounts must be checked against the current official fee notice and the relevant institution’s admission instructions before publication or payment. Tuition, university registration, hostel, mess, deposits and other charges may be treated separately. The figures should not be presented as an all-inclusive cost unless the official documentation confirms that.
Can Candidates Change Their Allotted Seat?
The supplied draft states that candidates admitted in this round cannot request a further seat or category change under the applicable rules.
Candidates should therefore read the allotment conditions carefully before accepting admission. Do not assume that a seat can be surrendered, upgraded or exchanged after admission.
The draft also refers to an undertaking concerning participation in other MBBS/BDS stray vacancy counselling processes. Confirm the exact undertaking and eligibility restrictions in the official modalities before signing.
What If Your Name Is Not on the Allotment List?
Not finding your application number in the physical stray-round list means that this particular list does not show an allotment for you.
You can take the following steps:
- Check that you opened the physical stray vacancy allotment notice rather than an earlier round’s result.
- Search using the complete NEET application number.
- Review the revised vacancy position and relevant counselling notices.
- Check the official OJEE website regularly for any subsequent announcement.
- If you are also participating in All India Quota counselling, check the Medical Counselling Committee website (mcc.nic.in) for the applicable national counselling notices.
As of the update date stated in this article, the supplied draft does not identify a further Odisha state allotment round after this result. That should not be interpreted as confirmation that no additional notice can be issued later.
Beware of Fake Admission Agents
Candidates should rely on official notices and authorised college admission offices for counselling information.
Be cautious if someone claims to guarantee an MBBS or BDS seat in exchange for money. An application number or rank does not establish that a caller is an authorised OJEE representative.
Before making a payment:
- Verify the fee amount and payment method.
- Confirm the institution’s official contact details.
- Keep receipts for every authorised payment.
- Do not share OTPs, passwords or sensitive account information with unknown callers.
- Cross-check forwarded notices against the official OJEE website.
Never pay an unauthorised agent for a promised seat.
