All dental colleges must upload details of students admitted to MDS/PG Diploma courses for the 2026–27 academic session on the NDC website by 12:00 midnight on October 24, 2026. Colleges are advised to upload admission details immediately after each counselling round to avoid last-minute technical issues.

Only student details uploaded on the NDC portal will be forwarded to the State Dental Councils/Tribunals for addition of MDS/PG Diploma qualifications.
