Keeping in mind that 748 seats remain vacant in NEET Super-speciality counselling for the academic year 2021, the government has decided to conduct a special round of counselling without any cut-off percentile eligibility as a one-time measure to prevent seat wastage and in the larger public interest, government officials said.

NEET-PG is typically held in January, with counselling beginning in March. However, due to COVID-19 and the delay in the previous year's admission process, this year's exam was held on May 21 and the results were announced on June 1, according to a senior official.

An official from the government said, “Inspections of medical colleges are being carried out by the NMC and the last date of issuing letter of permission is August 15. Hence, it has been decided to start the counselling process from September 1 so that all the new seats can be included in the first round of counselling itself.”
