The All India Institute of Medical Sciences (AIIMS) has officially released the open round seat allotment results for the INI CET January 2026 session. Candidates who appeared for the entrance examination can now access and download their allotment status from the official examination portal.
Key Dates and Reporting Requirements
Successful candidates in the open round must complete several essential steps before the deadline. All selected applicants are required to confirm their seat allocation, upload the necessary documents, and physically report to their assigned institution by 11:00 AM on February 28. Failure to complete these procedures within the stipulated timeframe will lead to serious consequences.
The examining authority has clearly stated that candidates who fail to submit documents or report to their allotted institute on time will have their candidature cancelled.

Seat distribution has been carried out based on the original merit list, the candidate's category, and the preferences they had submitted during the application process. Candidates are advised to carefully review their allotment status and follow the instructions provided.
