Hello Kavin,
Since you have filled the General category for INI-CET May 2025 due to not having an OBC certificate ready, you are wondering if you can change your category to OBC for the November 2025 attempt. The answer depends on the exam rules followed by AIIMS for INI-CET.
1. Fresh Registration for Each Session
AIIMS conducts INI-CET twice a year—in May and November. For every new session, candidates are required to complete a fresh registration process. This means you can update your details, including category, in the next attempt. So, if you have your valid OBC (NCL) certificate by that time, you can apply under the OBC category during INI-CET November 2025 registration.
2. Category Certificate Requirements
AIIMS requires the OBC certificate to be issued within a specific timeframe (usually within 1 year of the exam date and in the prescribed format). So, you should apply for your OBC certificate well in advance. Ensure it mentions “Non-Creamy Layer” and follows the exact AIIMS format; otherwise, it may get rejected.
3. No Change During the Same Session
Once you have submitted your application for INI-CET May 2025 under the General category, you cannot change it later for that attempt. The system does not allow mid-process corrections in category after final submission.
4. Next Attempt – November 2025
During the November 2025 registration, you can start fresh and select the OBC category. This will allow you to avail reservation benefits in that attempt.
In short: You cannot change your category for May 2025, but you can register afresh in November 2025 under OBC if you get your certificate ready in the correct format.
Hello Aspirant,
Yes, your 54.6% score in the FMGE July 2025 exam is above the required 50% passing mark for the general category. This qualifies you to apply for a provisional medical license from the NMC. To be eligible for INICET and JIPMER , you must have a valid MBBS degree, complete your one-year internship, and possess an NMC registration number.
Hello,
Spot allotment in INI-CET PG is done by AIIMS Delhi through a centralised online process. It is not institute-specific. All INIs (AIIMS, JIPMER, NIMHANS, PGIMER, etc.) are included in the same unified counselling.
During spot round registration, candidates need to pay a refundable security deposit of Rs. 3 lakh . This amount is common for all INIs and not separate for each institute.
If you are allotted a seat and take admission, the amount is adjusted. If you don’t get a seat, it is refunded.
Hope it helps !
Hello Aiswarya,
With a rank of 6906 in INI-CET, you would have a better chance of getting a less competitive clinical branch (e.g. ENT, anesthesia, pathology, or biochemistry) in the spot admission section as opposed to the open rounds because:
In summary, while there is no guarantee that you will receive an offer, you are more likely to get a seat during the spot allotment versus the open rounds if you are flexible with respect to the institute and branch choice.
Hi Aiswarya!
A rank of 6906 in the Unreserved category in INI-CET puts you in a decent position, but getting a seat in Anesthesia will depend on how the cutoff moves during open allotment. In previous years, some AIIMS campuses like Bhopal, Rishikesh, and Raipur have shown Anesthesia seat openings up to around 6000–7500 ranks in open rounds. So yes, you might have a chance, especially in other campuses. Keep your documents ready, watch out for vacancy reports and don’t miss the mop-up counseling.

Hello,
Kudos on achieving an outstanding AIR 817 in NEET 2025! That’s an impressive accomplishment. In response to your question, if you enroll in AIIMS Bibinagar, you will be regarded as a central institute student rather than a Telangana state quota student, as AIIMS operates as an autonomous body under the central government. In Telangana, for NEET PG counselling, the local candidate status for government quota PG seats is based on where you studied MBBS and your residency/domicile status according to the regulations set by the Telangana state counselling authority (KNRUHS).
Typically, to qualify as a local for NEET PG under the Telangana quota, you must have completed your MBBS at a college associated with KNRUHS or Dr. NTRUHS, such as Gandhi Medical College.
Therefore, if you enroll at AIIMS Bibinagar, you might not qualify for the local quota of NEET PG in Telangana, since it is not affiliated with KNRUHS. You will, nonetheless, become qualified for the AIIMS internal quota in INICET for PG programs in all AIIMS institutions, which is an important benefit. If maintaining local quota eligibility in NEET PG Telangana is your goal, Gandhi Medical College would be a more secure option. However, if you consider INICET and central counselling alternatives, AIIMS Bibinagar provides a respected and well-equipped setting.
Hope this helps. All the best!
Hello Aspirant,
You are eligible for admission into B.Sc. Radiology in most of the colleges with your 89% in your 12th boards (PCB stream). Most of them do not consider your EAMCET, that said, your EAMCET rank (40,000 in general category) may not yield admission in a few of the top government medical colleges, which offer paramedical courses. You will have chances to get into one of the private, semi-government colleges of your interests even with your rank in the management/spot admission quota. I suggest you check the cut-off trends and admission process of individual Colleges.
Hello,
If you are assigned a seat in INI-CET round 2 and decide not to accept or enroll in the designated college, then there is a chance that you might incur a penalty, based on the regulations set by AIIMS and the INI-CET counselling authorities for that specific year.
Typically, once a seat is assigned in any round, particularly from round 2 onward, if the candidate does not report or enroll in the college, they might be disqualified from subsequent counselling rounds and may also lose the security deposit. Moreover, certain institutions might levy monetary fines or hold onto a segment of the paid fees.
Reading the official counselling brochure and guidelines carefully before engaging in the counselling rounds is essential to ensure you understand the financial and procedural consequences of not accepting a designated seat.
Hope this helps. All the best!
Hello Aiswarya,
In previous years trends, an INI-CET rank of 6906 would hold little chance of obtaining a Radiation Oncology seat in spot counseling. It however depends on following factors:
So, keep checking the official counseling updates , be flexible with institute choices and consider parallel options (like MD General Medicine) as backup
