Open closing is the deepest All India Rank allotted an Open (general merit) seat in that department in 2025, across every round including stray vacancy. Reserved-category and PwD seats close later — sometimes far later — so they are not mixed into this figure. A dash means no Open seat was allotted there that year.
Every seat, by quota and category
A quota and a category together make one competition, so they are listed separately rather than added up: an All India Quota Open seat and an SC seat in the same department close thousands of ranks apart, and so do the same category under two different quotas. Open a department to see its lines.

A dash under “after round 1” means that line was not allotted in round one — it opened in a later round or in stray vacancy, which is where its final closing rank comes from.
What this does and does not cover
- Where the seats go. NMC recognises 121 sanctioned MD/MS seats here. MCC allotted 59 of them through the All India Quota in 2025, which leaves about 62 filled through Karnataka’s own counselling — the domicile quota, on its own portal, under its own rules and reservation. That remainder is subtraction, not a published figure: the two sources are a year apart, so a college whose intake changed between them will be a little out. It also has 250 MBBS seats, which are NEET UG rather than NEET PG. The 9 DM and MCh seats are filled through NEET SS, a separate exam.
- MCC counselling only — the state quota is not here. In a government college the sanctioned PG seats are split in half: 50% go to the All India Quota that MCC allots, and 50% to the state’s own counselling for candidates with that state’s domicile. The 59 All India Quota seats above are therefore roughly half the picture, and a comparable number again is filled through Karnataka’s counselling authority, on its own portal, under its own rules. We do not hold those figures, so we do not print a number for them.
- Allotted, not sanctioned. These are seats that went to candidates in 2025 counselling. A seat left vacant through every round never appears in an allotment report.
- One year. 2025 is the most recent counselling parsed. Departments and seat counts move between years.
- Sanctioned intake is NMC’s, from its College and Course Search for AY 2026-27, recorded there as “Vijaynagar Institute of Medical Sciences, Bellary” (KA/069/G/1). The two sources share no identifier, so they are joined on name, state and city; this match scored 0.84 of 1. A college we could not match confidently shows no sanctioned figure rather than a guessed one.
