Madhya Pradesh's state-quota PG medical seats are filled by the Directorate of Medical Education (DME), through the state's online counselling portal. It runs separately from the All-India MCC round and covers state government and private/state-quota seats.
This guide covers who conducts MP counselling, which seats it fills, the domicile eligibility that governs a state seat, what the portal collects, and how the process runs.
Who conducts this counselling
The DME, Madhya Pradesh, is the state authority for PG medical and dental admissions. It publishes the rule book, verifies eligibility, runs the online rounds and declares allotments through the state's counselling portal.
MP maintains an in-service quota for serving government doctors alongside the open state pool. The All India Quota portion of MP's government seats is handled by MCC.
What seats it fills
- State-quota PG seats in Madhya Pradesh government medical colleges.
- The in-service quota reserved for serving government doctors.
- The state-quota share of PG seats in private colleges under the state's arrangement.
Who is eligible
A qualifying NEET PG rank is required, and an MP state seat additionally depends on Madhya Pradesh domicile/eligibility as defined in the rule book. In-service candidates are considered under the service quota.

Common questions
Do I need a Madhya Pradesh domicile for a state seat?

Is DME MP counselling separate from MCC?
Yes. The DME fills MP's state-quota seats; MCC fills the All India Quota and deemed/central seats. Separate registrations and seat pools.
Is there an in-service quota in MP?
Yes — a share of state PG seats is reserved for serving government medical officers, with the remainder filled on open state merit. The exact share is set in the rule book each year.
