What Does the Stray Round Merit List Contain?
The state merit list ranks every verified candidate for this round. Ranking is based on NEET UG 2026 performance.
The seat matrix shows the seats left vacant after the earlier rounds. It lists vacancies college-wise and course-wise across Madhya Pradesh.
The eligible candidates list confirms who may take part in choice filling. Candidates missing from this list cannot fill choices in this round.
How to Check the MP AYUSH Stray Round Merit List?
Candidates can follow these steps to view the merit list and seat matrix.
- Go to the MP AYUSH counselling portal.
- Open the UG State counselling section on the home page.
- Select the reports option and click on State Merit.
- Open the stray vacancy round list and search for your roll number.

- Open the choice filling option for the stray vacancy round.
- Add colleges and courses in your order of preference.
- Review the full list carefully before final submission.
- Lock your choices and save the confirmation page.
Choices left unlocked may not be considered for allotment. Candidates should match their choices against the latest seat matrix.
What Happens After Choice Locking?
The directorate will publish a college-wise allotment merit list next. This list will be prepared from locked choices and merit ranks.
Candidates named in the list must report physically at the allotted college. Original documents must be carried for verification at the time of reporting.
Candidates who fail to report on time lose their claim to admission. Admission will be given only to candidates who report in person.
Registration details cannot be changed after help centre verification. Candidates should therefore check their profile data before locking choices.
The stray vacancy round is the final chance for state quota AYUSH seats. Seats still vacant after this round are unlikely to be offered again.
