Odisha NEET PG Counselling (OJEE)
How Odisha's authority fills the state-quota PG seats — the process, eligibility and documents.
Odisha's state-quota PG medical seats are filled by the state's counselling authority, separately from the All-India MCC round. This guide sets out how that process works so you walk in prepared rather than learning it under deadline pressure.
It covers who conducts Odisha counselling, which seats it fills, the Odisha domicile eligibility that decides a state seat, what the portal collects, and how the rounds run.
Who conducts this counselling
The state authority for Odisha publishes the prospectus, verifies eligibility, runs the online counselling and declares allotments for the state-quota PG seats.
As in most states, a share of Odisha's state PG seats is reserved for serving government doctors (the in-service quota), with the rest filled on open state merit. The All India Quota portion of Odisha's government seats is handled separately by MCC.
What seats it fills
- State-quota PG seats in Odisha 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 the entry ticket, and a Odisha state seat additionally depends on Odisha domicile as defined in the prospectus. In-service candidates are considered under the service quota.
The domicile rules and the service split decide which seats are within reach, so confirm your eligibility category against the year's prospectus before planning around a state seat.
- A qualifying NEET PG rank/percentile for your category.
- MBBS from a recognised college with completed internship.
- Odisha domicile for a state seat, per the prospectus.
- In-service candidates: qualifying government service, under the service quota.
- State reservation categories apply where claimed and documented.

Common questions
Do I need Odisha domicile for a Odisha state seat?
A state seat generally depends on Odisha domicile as defined in the prospectus. Confirm your eligibility before relying on a state seat.
Is Odisha counselling separate from MCC?
Yes. The state authority fills Odisha's state-quota seats; MCC fills the All India Quota and deemed/central seats. They are separate registrations and separate seat pools, so most aspirants take part in both.
Is there an in-service quota in Odisha?
Yes — a share of state PG seats is reserved for serving government doctors, with the rest filled on open state merit. The exact share is set in the prospectus each year.
This guide explains how the process generally works so you walk in prepared. Dates, fees, exact eligibility clauses and portal links are set fresh each counselling cycle — always confirm the current details on the official portal before you act.
