📖 How to Read the Delhi NEET UG 2026 Round 1 Cutoff
The closing rank represents the rank of the last candidate allotted a seat in the relevant category and seat/counselling context represented by the dataset.
For example, the Open-category closing rank for VMMC in this Delhi dataset is 1,381. This means the Round 1 allotment extended to an Open-category rank of 1,381 for the relevant seat pool represented by the data.
It does not mean that every candidate with a rank better than 1,381 is automatically guaranteed admission. Allotment also depends on the choices submitted, seat availability, eligibility and other counselling conditions.
Similarly, a candidate should not compare their Open-category rank with an SC, ST, OBC or EWS closing rank. The appropriate comparison is with the category applicable to the candidate.
❓ Why Are Delhi College Cutoffs Different From the AIQ Page?
Candidates may notice that some Delhi colleges also appear on the MCC NEET UG 2026 Round 1 AIQ Cutoff page, but the closing ranks are different.
For example, VMMC appears in both datasets:
AIQ and Open dataset: Open closing rank 124
Delhi dataset: Open closing rank 1,381
Similarly, Maulana Azad Medical College appears with:
AIQ and Open dataset: Open closing rank 129
Delhi dataset: Open closing rank 2,662
📌 Important: These figures should not be treated as conflicting results. The Excel workbook contains separate sheets for AIQ and Open and Delhi. The two sheets represent different counselling or seat contexts. Therefore, the same medical college can have different closing ranks in the two datasets. Candidates should use the cutoff corresponding to the counselling route, quota and seat type for which they are eligible.
🎯 What Does the Delhi Round 1 Cutoff Mean for Candidates?
The Delhi Round 1 data can help candidates understand the relative competitiveness of the medical colleges included in the dataset.
The Open-category closing ranks range from: 1,381 to 7,403
This means the colleges in the Delhi dataset have significantly different levels of competition.
Candidates should not choose a college based only on its closing rank. Before filling choices, they should also consider:
NEET UG 2026 All India Rank
Category
Eligibility
Seat type
Applicable counselling
College preference
Course and seat availability
Fee structure
Bond or service conditions
Hostel and location
Future counselling-round possibilities

The Delhi sheet contains six medical colleges.
VMMC appears in both the AIQ and Open sheet and the separate Delhi sheet. These are different datasets representing different counselling or seat contexts. Therefore, the closing ranks should not be directly combined or treated as the same cutoff.
No. A closing rank is a reference from a particular allotment round and seat/counselling context. It can change in subsequent rounds depending on seat availability, upgrades, withdrawals, choices and other factors.
Yes. Round 2 and subsequent counselling rounds can have different closing ranks because the available seats and candidate choices change throughout the counselling process.
Candidates should compare their rank with the cutoff for the category and seat type applicable to them. Comparing a reserved-category candidate only with the Open cutoff may give an inaccurate picture of their admission chances.
