Government Medical College, Nagpur (GMC Nagpur) is one of the medical colleges considered by candidates during Maharashtra NEET UG counselling. Its cutoff should be checked by counselling route, category and round. This guide covers the Maharashtra state counselling ranks; All India Quota seats are allotted separately through the Medical Counselling Committee (MCC). It also helps to distinguish GMC Nagpur from Indira Gandhi Government Medical College, another medical college in the city.

For the Open category in Maharashtra’s 2026 state counselling, the reported closing All India Rank (AIR) at GMC Nagpur was 10,502 in CAP Round 1 and 13,652 in CAP Round 3. In this context, the closing rank is the last rank allotted a seat in that category and round. The later-round figure indicates that the list extended further, but it should not be treated as a guaranteed admission threshold for other candidates or future years.

GMC Nagpur 2026: Open-category state ranks

Cutoffs for OBC, EWS, SC, ST and other eligible seat categories follow their own allotment rows. Before comparing your rank, check the exact category, seat type and quota shown in the official Maharashtra State CET Cell selection list. A table that combines different categories or counselling routes can make a rank appear more widely applicable than it is.

How to check the relevant allotment

1. Visit the Maharashtra State CET Cell’s NEET UG 2026 counselling portal.
2. Open the final selection list for the CAP round you want to review.
3. Search for Government Medical College, Nagpur and confirm that the course is MBBS.
4. Match the listed category and seat type to your own counselling eligibility.
5. Use the last allotted AIR in that row as a historical reference, not as a promise of admission.

Round-wise ranks can move as candidates accept seats, upgrade or withdraw, and as vacancies are filled. Opening and closing ranks from one round do not tell the whole story: the candidate pool and available seats may differ in later lists. For the same reason, avoid relying on predicted marks-to-rank conversions when the official allotment ranks are available.

2026 counselling status and stray-round dates

The Maharashtra State CET Cell has completed CAP Rounds 1, 2 and 3 for MBBS and BDS and has scheduled online stray vacancy rounds for remaining seats. As of October 15, eligible candidates must submit fresh choices for Stray Vacancy Round 1 between October 15 and 16, with the selection list scheduled for October 17. Further selection lists are scheduled for October 21 and 24, subject to official changes.

Eligibility is restricted. The State CET Cell says candidates who already hold certain state or All India Quota seats are not eligible for these rounds, and fresh registration is not available. Choices submitted during CAP Round 3 do not carry forward. Candidates should read the current stray-round notice, confirm that they are eligible, and select only colleges they are prepared to join if allotted. The final closing rank may change after stray allotments, so check the official result before making a decision.
