Fees 2026 — Full Breakdown
Two separate fees apply: the NEET PG exam application fee, and the MCC counselling registration/security deposit paid later. Here is exactly what you pay at each stage, for every category.

Candidates often confuse the NEET PG exam application fee (paid once, to NBEMS, when filling the exam form) with the MCC counselling registration fee and security deposit (paid separately, after qualifying, when registering for All India Quota counselling at mcc.nic.in). Both are non-negotiable and required — missing either deadline can cost you a counselling round. State-quota counselling (the other 50% of seats) has its own, separate registration fee charged by each state's counselling authority.
NEET PG 2026 Exam Application Fee
| Category | Fee Amount |
|---|---|
| General / OBC / EWS | ₹3,500 |
| SC / ST / PwD | ₹2,500 |
Paid once to NBEMS while filling the NEET PG application form. This fee is non-refundable regardless of your result.
MCC Counselling Registration Fee & Security Deposit
| Seat Type | Category | Security Deposit (Refundable) |
|---|---|---|
| Government Medical College | Unreserved | ~₹10,000 |
| Government Medical College | Reserved (SC/ST/OBC) | ~₹5,000 |
| Deemed / Central / Private College | All categories | ~₹2,00,000+ (varies by institute) |
State Counselling Fees Are Separate
50% of government PG seats and 100% of state private-college PG seats go through your home state's own counselling authority — not MCC. Each state charges its own registration fee and security deposit, separate from the NEET exam fee and the MCC/AIQ deposit above. If you are applying for both AIQ and your state quota, budget for both fee sets and both deposits.
