WBMCC NEET UG 2026 Seat Matrix Overview
The WBMCC seat matrix is the master document for NEET UG counselling in West Bengal. It lists every participating college, the course-wise total intake, and the number of seats in each reservation category. WBMCC manages state quota (85%) counselling for government medical and dental colleges and handles all seats in private institutions. The 2026 matrix is expected to mirror 2025 in terms of college list and reservation structure, with revisions only if the National Medical Commission approves new colleges or increases intake for existing ones.

WBMCC applies West Bengal’s state reservation policy to all state quota MBBS and BDS seats. The table below shows the reservation percentages and the approximate number of seats per category in a representative 250-seat government college, based on 2025 norms expected to continue in 2026.
| Category | Reservation Percentage | Approx. Seats in a 250-Seat College |
|---|---|---|
| UR (Unreserved / General) | 45% | ~112 |
| SC (Scheduled Caste) | 22% | ~55 |
| ST (Scheduled Tribe) | 6% | ~15 |
| OBC-A | 10% | ~25 |
| OBC-B | 7% | ~18 |
| EWS (Economically Weaker Section) | 10% | ~25 |
PwD (Persons with Disability) seats are a horizontal 5% reservation across all categories — they are carved out of each category’s quota, not added on top. NRI and Management quota seats in private colleges are separate from the state quota and do not follow the above reservation norms.
