New Delhi: The Centralized Admission Committee (CENTAC) has released the guidelines for NEET UG BDS, BAMS, BVs (National SS & NRI) mop-up counselling, which is scheduled to be conducted on December 16, 2022.

Apart from the guidelines, the CENTAC has also released the detailed schedule for NEET UG BDS, BAMS, BVs (National SS & NRI) mop-up counselling. 

The mop-up counselling will be carried out in hybrid form, that is, concurrently in Online and Offline (Physical) mode, in accordance with the CENTAC notification. 

Candidates may express their interest and select either an offline option or an online mode. As per the schedule, the candidates who wish to participate in the offline (Physical) mode should report to the CENTAC office on the Puducherry Technological University (PTU/PEC) campus.

Participants who have merely paid the non-refundable mop-up counselling cost in advance are eligible. The CENTAC will post a list of candidates who are qualified for the Mop up depending on payment on December 15, 2022. 

Candidates must use the Payment option in the dashboard login to send the fee in advance to the CENTAC Bank account via NET Banking, NEFT, RTGS, Credit Cards, or Debit Cards on or before December 15, 2022 11.00 am. The Payment done after the due date will not be entertained under any circumstances.

Candidates who joined in BDS / BAMS / BVSc&AH (National SS) through CENTAC will be permitted to participate in the mop-up round. As per NMC guidelines, the sliding will not be allowed for candidates who joined under UG NEET counselling up to the mop-up round through AIQ counselling.

Fees to be Paid for Participating in Mop-up -

Points to Remember:

The candidates must make note of the following:

• If the candidate accepts the seat and enrols in the course, then Rs. 100,000 will be adjusted from the fee that must be paid to the college, or else, the fee will be forfeited.
• If the seat is not allotted, INR 100000 will be refunded. 
• All those who want to take part in mop-up counselling must pay a fee of Rs. 1000. Candidates who have already paid Rs. 1000 for MBBS mop-up counselling do not have to do so again.

• SC/ST candidates in Puducherry should only pay the Mop up Counseling fee of Rs. 1000. The mop-up eligible list will be published on the CENTAC website, and CENTAC has further stated that a link for mop-up counselling will be issued to the registered E-mail ID of the candidates who have deposited counselling fee money.

• Prior to beginning counselling and selecting seats, candidates will be permitted to call the phone lines listed on the website if they are having any trouble participating via web conferencing owing to connectivity problems.

• According to merit, candidates will be summoned one by one. They should review the open positions, weigh their options, and decide whether to participate in counselling. Candidates who choose to participate online should sign up before their scheduled time and wait for their turn. In case of network connectivity issues, the candidates can call and confirm their participation half an hour before their scheduled time.

Documents Required during the time of Counselling:

• Result/Rank letter issued by NBE/NTA
• Documents for reservation claimed
• Proof of fee paid (RTGS/NEFT reference)

Reservation

• In-session mop-up counselling will be conducted. The first session will involve conducting NRI counselling. The open NRI seats will thereafter be changed over to Management quota seats.

• Government and Management quotas will be operated concurrently in the following session. However, government quota seats will be administered in accordance with the Government of Puducherry's Reservation. The list of joined candidates should be checked by candidates. 

• Candidates are asked to provide information to centacprof@gmail.com before 11:00 am on December 15, 2022 if their name has been added to the second round and payment has been made, as well as through the Grievances tab after logging onto the dashboard.

Joining Date: 

Candidates must sign up before December 17, 2022, at 5:00 p.m. In order to make it easier for the designated candidates to be admitted, the Colleges will be asked to set up admission counters at the CENTAC OFFICE. They can sign up in person or online.

Following mop-up counselling, CENTAC will sponsor the list of qualified applicants to the institutions at a 1:10 ratio, i.e. if there are 5 vacancies, in order to fill any incidental openings that may have occurred. The top 50 candidates on the list will be sponsored in order of merit.

Candidates who are already enrolled with CENTAC must pay Rs. 10,000 toward the counselling fee for stray vacancies and indicate whether they want to be included in the 1:10 list that will be provided to the colleges following the mop-up round for incidental vacancies, if any. 

Those candidates will not be included on the 1:10 list if they have already joined. It should be noted that the names of candidates who haven't paid the counselling price for stray openings and haven't indicated their willingness won't be supported.

Once names are added to the 1:10 list and a place is offered based on merit by the College, the student should accept. The Rs. 10,000 counselling fee for the Stray vacancy will be lost in the event of a rejection.
