Newspoint

There is important news for candidates preparing for admission to postgraduate medical seats in Kerala under NEET PG 2026. The Commissioner for Entrance Examinations (CEE), Kerala, has released the final merit list and the category list. Both lists were published on October 29, 2026. Candidates who applied for admission can view their details by visiting the official website, cee.kerala.gov.in, and accessing the 'PG Medical Candidate Portal 2026'.

The final merit list contains information regarding the candidates' merit, while the category list allows candidates to check their status concerning their reservation category. During the NEET PG counseling process, seat allocation will be determined based on established rules, candidate merit, the options exercised by the candidates, and their eligibility. Therefore, candidates are advised to carefully verify their names and other details in the lists. It is also recommended to keep checking the website for updates regarding the upcoming choice registration and seat allocation process.

What to do in case of an error in the category?


CEE Kerala has provided an opportunity for candidates whose category status has been withheld due to discrepancies in their nativity/residence certificates to rectify the issues. Such candidates may address the shortcomings in their documentation before the deadline for choice registration. However, claims that have already been rejected will not be reinstated. Consequently, candidates seeking benefits under community or special reservation categories, or those eligible for fee concessions, must ensure that their eligibility and required documents are in order.
