Hyderabad gynaecologist duped of lakhs in MBBS admission scam
Hyderabad: In a recent MBBS admission fraud case, a 44-year-old obstetrician and gynaecologist seeking MBBS admission for her son was duped by a 'consultancy.'
The accused reportedly had taken money from several parents and allegedly amassed around Rs 1.15 crore.
After the matter came to light, Madhuranagar police registered a case, which has been transferred to the Hyderabad Central Crime Station (CCS) for investigation.
The accused consultancy firm, specialising in NEET Counseling, operates in Ameerpet for admission guidance.
According to the police, the doctor saw an ad on Facebook and contacted the firm. Following this, an agreement was signed and a service charge of ₹5 lakh was paid, according to the report by Deccan Chronicle.
On November 20, 2025, she was informed that his son had been admitted to a private medical college in LB Nagar. Therefore, she would have to pay more, so he paid ₹13.9 lakh in fees. Later, she learned that the allotment letter was fake. Upon learning of this, she requested a refund, but the consultancy allegedly delayed the payment.
She then filed a complaint, naming an operational director, director and team members demanding her money back.
They are also accused of collecting money from others with amounts including ₹3 lakh, ₹15.3 lakh, ₹5.75 lakh and ₹13 lakh, and ₹5 lakh. Currently, the CCS police have re-registered the case under relevant sections and have begun an investigation.
Medical Dialogues had recently reported a similar case where a Haryana-based man was duped of Rs 25 lakh by promises of securing his daughter's admission to an MBBS course.
