NEET UG admissions follow the reservation policies set by the Government of India and respective state governments. For the 15% All India Quota seats, reservations typically include 27% for OBC-NCL (Other Backward Classes – Non Creamy Layer), 15% for Scheduled Castes (SC), 7.5% for Scheduled Tribes (ST), 10% for Economically Weaker Sections (EWS), and 5% horizontal reservation for Persons with Disabilities (PwD). Some institutions may also have additional reservations such as for Armed Forces personnel. State quota seats follow reservation policies defined by individual state governments, which may vary from state to state.
