The Maharashtra State Common Entrance Test (CET) Cell has released the List of Not Qualified Candidates for NEET-UG 2026. This list has been published alongside the Final Merit List for MBBS/BDS courses and identifies candidates who registered for the state counselling process but did not meet the qualifying criteria for NEET-UG 2026.
Overview
Issued by the Government of Maharashtra’s State CET Cell, the list spans 5 pages and includes 234 candidates who registered on the CET Cell portal but have been marked as “Not Qualified” for admission consideration in the current cycle.
What the List Contains
The notification lists the following details for each candidate:
- Sr. No. – Serial number in the list
- NEET All India Rank
- NEET Roll Number
- CET Cell Online Form Number
- Name of the Candidate
- Gender
- Category (most entries fall under the OPEN category)
- NRI Status, where applicable
- Specified Reservation (such as PWD, Hilly Area, or other divyang sub-categories, where applicable)
Unlike the merit list, this document does not carry a “Candidature Type” or admission remark, since these candidates are not being considered for seat allotment in the current round.
