Telangana PG medical seats in state government colleges total 1,625 for 2026-27 in the updated seat matrix that the National Medical Commission (NMC) issued on Friday, 6 November. Adding up the matrix rows for the 23 state-run colleges gives the same figure the state government announced.

That is 359 more than the 1,266 seats in the NMC’s earlier matrix of 29 September, when only ten state colleges had PG seats. The state government says 23 of its 35 government medical colleges will now offer PG courses. The 13 colleges new to PG are Nagarkurnool, Mahabubabad, Wanaparthy, Mancherial, Kamareddy, Rajanna Sircilla, Khammam, Karimnagar, Jayashankar Bhupalpally, Jangaon, Nirmal, Sangareddy and Narsampet.

Where the seats are

In the NMC matrix, those 13 colleges have 243 seats between them. Jangaon leads with 48, ahead of Karimnagar with 34, Kamareddy with 32 and Khammam with 25. Sangareddy has 18 and Mancherial 15; Jayashankar Bhupalpally, Nirmal and Wanaparthy have 12 each, Mahabubabad and Nagarkurnool 10 each, Narsampet eight and Rajanna Sircilla seven.

The ten colleges that already taught PG hold the other 1,382. The matrix lists 501 seats at Osmania Medical College in Hyderabad, 228 at Gandhi Medical College in Secunderabad and 192 at Kakatiya Medical College in Warangal, followed by Nizamabad with 98, RIMS Adilabad with 90 and Siddipet with 89.

Statewide, the matrix lists 4,417 broad-speciality and diploma seats. Private colleges have 2,229 of them, with RVM Institute of Medical Sciences in Siddipet the largest at 156, and the two Malla Reddy colleges listed as deemed have 350. The Nizam’s Institute of Medical Sciences (NIMS) is listed with 107 seats and ESIC Medical College, Sanathnagar, with 106; both figures are total intake. In Andhra Pradesh, PG seats rose by 424 to 4,196, going by figures from the state’s health university.

Round 2 dates

The NMC notice covers broad-speciality courses only; extra super-speciality seats will follow in a later update. Colleges given new courses or more seats must submit electronic bank guarantees within seven days before letters of permission are issued, and no college may admit beyond its approved intake.

On 7 November, the Medical Counselling Committee (MCC) redrew its NEET PG round-2 calendar so the newly approved seats could be offered. MCC fills the All India Quota seats, the 50% share that states contribute, and all deemed-university seats, with no domicile rule. Those who hold a round-1 seat and want out can resign by 6 pm on Monday, 9 November, and keep their security deposit. Choice filling starts at 1 pm on Tuesday, 10 November, and round-2 registration closes at 3 pm on Saturday, 14 November.
