NEET PG counselling 2022 was scheduled to begin from September 1.

"The Candidates of NEET-PG, 2022 are informed that the NEET-PG Counselling, 2022 was scheduled to commence from 01/09/2022. However, National Medical Commission (NMC) is in the process of issuing New LoPs for the current academic year and the same will be concluded till 15/09/2022," an official notification said.

"Hence, in order to include more seats in the counselling for the benefit of the candidates, it has been decided by the Competent Authority to re-schedule the NEET-PG Counselling, 2022 which was scheduled to commence from 01/09/2022," it added.

Though the ministry has not announced the revised counselling schedule yet, official sources told PTI that the counselling is likely to begin in the third week of September.
Usually, NEET-PG is held in January and the counselling starts in March. But because of the COVID-19 pandemic and the delay in last year's admission process, this year's exam was held on May 21 and results were declared on June 1, PTI said citing a senior official.

This year's PG counselling is likely to be held for around 52,000 seats.
