Round 1 Seat Matrix for MBBS/BDS Admissions 2025: What Every NEET Aspirant Needs to Know
The Round 1 Seat Matrix for MBBS/BDS UG admissions for 2025 has officially been released, and it’s more than just numbers on a spreadsheet—it’s the beginning of a life-changing journey for thousands of NEET-qualified students across India.
Whether you’re aiming for a prestigious AIIMS seat, dreaming of the heritage of BHU, or considering a deemed university for better flexibility, this seat matrix offers clarity, strategy, and direction.
What Is the Seat Matrix, and Why Does It Matter?
In simple terms, the seat matrix tells you how many seats are available in each college, under which quota, and for which category. This includes:
- AIIMS & JIPMER Institutions
- Central Universities (DU, BHU, AMU, JMI, etc.)
- Deemed Universities
- ESIC Medical Institutions
- All India Quota (AIQ) Seats
A Glimpse Into This Year’s Round 1 Seat Matrix for MBBS/BDS
- AIIMS New Delhi continues to offer 125 seats, with a healthy distribution across UR, EWS, OBC, SC, and ST.
- BHU’s Institute of Medical Sciences and JIPMER Puducherry both maintain competitive seat counts with detailed quotas.
- Deemed universities offer thousands of paid and NRI seats, with institutions like Kasturba (Manipal), Kalinga, and DY Patil among the top choices.
- ESIC colleges, while limited in number, provide an excellent alternative for insured persons (IP quota), especially for students from EWS or reserved categories.

FAQs
How do I know if I’m eligible for a seat in a particular category (like ESIC or NRI)?
Each category has specific rules:
ESIC (IP Quota): You or your parent must be an ESI-insured person with valid documents.
NRI Quota (Deemed Colleges): You must have NRI sponsorship, valid passport, and proof of relationship.
For OBC/SC/ST/EWS/PwBD, you need valid certificates as per central guidelines.
