NEET SS candidates have been allowed to resign from their Round 1 seats until 6:00 PM on August 4, 2026, without losing their security deposit.
However, candidates are instructed to make an informed decision, as those who resign will not be permitted to participate in Round 2 of SS Counselling 2025 or any further round, if conducted.
Seats becoming vacant due to resignations will be reflected as clear vacancies in the Round 2 seat matrix after 6:00 PM on August 4, 2026.
This means candidates participating in Round 2 may see additional seats becoming available once the resignation period closes and the seat matrix is updated.
