West Bengal opens UG AYUSH Round 1 seat matrix and choice filling for 2026

West Bengal Medical Counselling Committee has published the Round 1 seat matrix for UG AYUSH counselling 2026. The matrix PDF lists institute-wise seats for programmes such as Bachelor of Ayurvedic Medicine and Surgery under state quota, private management quota and private college AIQ seats, with category columns for UR, EWS, OBC, SC, ST and PwD turns where applicable.

J.B. Roy State Ayurvedic Medical College and Hospital appears with 64 state-quota BAMS seats in the opening rows. Private institutes including Raghunath Ayurved Mahavidyalaya and Hospital and Belley Sankarpur Rajib Gandhi Memorial Ayurvedic College and Hospital show separate lines for state quota, management quota and AIQ seats. Homoeopathy campuses such as Mahesh Bhattacharyya Homoeopathic Medical College, The Calcutta Homoeopathic Medical College, Midnapore Homoeopathic Medical College and Burdwan Homoeopathic Medical College figure in the participating institute list issued the same day.

Registration path and choice-filling manuals

WBMCC's homepage news strip states that the provisional list of candidates and seat matrix for Round 1 have been published and that Round 1 choice filling has started. NEET-UG 2026 qualified candidates who want West Bengal state quota, private management quota or AIQ counselling register through the UG AYUSH menu on https://wbmcc.nic.in/.

User manuals for candidate registration and for seat choice filling, both labelled UG AYUSH Counselling 2026, are hosted with the September document set. Candidates should complete registration and payment steps in the order shown in the registration manual before locking choices.

How this differs from AACCC national rounds

National AYUSH counselling under AACCC runs on its own calendar. The WBMCC files are the West Bengal state counselling layer for UG AYUSH 2026. Candidates using both national and state pathways must track each portal's own reporting clocks and avoid assuming one allotment letter covers the other.

Parents should rely on the institute list PDF for addresses and principal contacts when planning document verification travel. Contact numbers and emails printed for principals are meant for official joining queries, not for informal seat promises.

Aspirants still outside the registered list should finish portal registration first, then open the Round 1 matrix and build choices against real seat columns. Those already registered should lock preferences only after checking category-wise vacancy numbers in the 21 September matrix.

For West Bengal UG AYUSH Round 1 in 2026: use wbmcc.nic.in, follow the registration and choice-filling manuals, and treat the 21 September seat matrix and institute list as the controlling Round 1 inventory until WBMCC uploads a revised file.

Readers should cross-check dates, fees and seat numbers in the primary PDF or portal notice before acting, because counselling authorities sometimes issue same-day corrigenda that change a single clock without rewriting the whole schedule (1).
