Medical Dialogues had earlier reported that AIIMS New Delhi had issued an addendum revising the seat position for the INI SS January for the 2027 session and modifying the method for resolving ties in the entrance examination.
Under the earlier provision, candidates securing equal marks were ranked sequentially on the basis of fewer negative marks, higher marks in the qualifying examination, and then age, with the older candidate getting preference.
Under the revised rule, the qualifying examination marks criterion has been removed. Ties will now be resolved first by fewer negative marks, then by date of birth, with preference given to the older candidate. All other provisions of the INI-SS January 2027 Prospectus will remain unchanged.
