What is NEET state quota college predictor and how does it work?
NEET state quota college predictor is a tool that predicts which MBBS colleges you can get under the 85% state domicile quota based on your NEET rank, category, and home state. NeetWallah's predictor uses 8,40,000+ real allotment records from state counseling rounds (2019–2025) — not estimates or interpolations — to give you state-specific predictions with closing rank trends, government vs private breakdown, and fee intelligence.
How many MBBS seats are available under state quota in 2026?
85% of all MBBS seats in India are filled through state quota counseling — approximately 1,10,162 seats across 822 colleges in 34 states and UTs. This includes around 54,281 government seats and 55,881 private seats available under state quota allocation. The remaining 15% (approximately 19,440 seats) are filled through MCC's All India Quota counseling.
Which state has the most relaxed state quota MBBS cutoff?
States with lower medical college density and higher seat-to-aspirant ratios tend to have more relaxed cutoffs. Bihar, Jharkhand, Chhattisgarh, and Uttarakhand historically show more open state quota cutoffs for UR candidates — sometimes up to rank 80,000–1,00,000. States like Karnataka and Tamil Nadu have tighter cutoffs even in state quota due to larger aspirant populations. Your category also dramatically shifts the cutoff — SC/ST cutoffs can be 3–6x more relaxed than UR in the same state.
When does state quota MBBS counseling 2026 start?
State quota MBBS counseling 2026 is expected to start from August 2026, after MCC's All India Quota Round 1 completes in July. Each state runs its own independent schedule — UP state quota typically starts earlier, while states like Maharashtra and Karnataka often begin slightly later. State quota Round 2 and Mop-Up rounds usually run through September–October 2026. Stray Vacancy rounds conclude by November–December 2026.
Can I predict state quota MBBS for any state or only my home state?
You can use NeetWallah's predictor to see predictions for any state's college list, but you can only actually apply to state quota counseling in your home state — the state where you have valid domicile. Applying in multiple states' state quota counseling simultaneously is prohibited and leads to seat cancellation. However, you can simultaneously participate in MCC's All India Quota (which has no domicile restriction) along with your home state quota counseling.
What is the state quota MBBS fee in government colleges?
Government MBBS fees under state quota vary significantly by state. UP and Bihar government colleges charge approximately ₹13,000–₹28,000 per year. Rajasthan government MBBS fees are around ₹65,000/year. Maharashtra government seats cost ₹50,000–₹85,000/year. Tamil Nadu and Karnataka government seats run ₹70,000–₹1.1 lakh/year. Private state quota MBBS fees range from ₹5 lakh to ₹18 lakh per year depending on the state and college. NeetWallah's predictor shows complete total outflow — not just Year 1 brochure fees.
What is the NEET rank required for government MBBS under state quota?
The NEET rank required for government MBBS under state quota varies significantly by state and category. For UR category: small states (Uttarakhand, Himachal Pradesh, Chhattisgarh) may have government cutoffs up to rank 80,000–1,10,000. Large states (UP, Bihar) show government MBBS cutoffs up to rank 60,000–80,000 for UR in some colleges. Competitive states (Karnataka, Maharashtra, Tamil Nadu) require rank 15,000–40,000 even for state quota government seats. For OBC: add 15,000–25,000 rank relaxation. For SC/ST: add 50,000–1,50,000+ rank relaxation depending on state.
Is state quota MBBS predictor different from AIQ predictor?
Yes, significantly. State quota predictor uses exclusively state-specific counseling allotment data where only domicile candidates competed. AIQ predictor uses MCC national-level data where all-India candidates competed. The same college may have a state quota closing rank of 45,000 and an AIQ closing rank of 12,000 — for the exact same college and same category. Using AIQ data to predict state quota eligibility is a major error that most generic predictors make. NeetWallah maintains entirely separate datasets for state quota and AIQ.
What is the domicile proof required for state quota counseling?
A state-issued domicile or bonafide residence certificate is the core document. Most states also accept: 10-year minimum residence with continuous schooling records, birth certificate from that state, or parents' government service records in that state. Requirements vary: Rajasthan requires 10-year domicile; Maharashtra has its own MH CET bonafide resident criteria; Tamil Nadu requires HSC from a TN board school. V4Edu's counselors verify domicile eligibility before you register — avoiding the most common and costly admission mistake.
Can I upgrade my state quota seat in Round 2?
Yes. Most states allow seat upgrades in Round 2. If you were allotted a seat in Round 1, you can choose to retain it and simultaneously participate in Round 2 choice filling for a better college. If you get a better college in Round 2, you can upgrade and forfeit the Round 1 seat. NeetWallah's predictor models upgrade probability based on historical Round 1-to-Round 2 shift data. In Maharashtra's 2024 state quota counseling, 34% of Round 1 allottees successfully upgraded in Round 2.
What is a bond in state quota MBBS? Which states have bond conditions?
Several states require students admitted under state quota to sign a bond committing to serve in rural/government healthcare in that state for a defined period (typically 1–3 years) after MBBS. Bond penalty for violation ranges from ₹10 lakh to ₹50 lakh. States with bond conditions include: Maharashtra (₹10L bond), Rajasthan (rural service bond for government seats), UP (mandatory state service), Karnataka (rural service), Himachal Pradesh, Uttarakhand, and Chhattisgarh. NeetWallah's predictor includes state-wise bond condition data — critical intelligence most predictors ignore.
