Why Tripura is Different

AGMC Agartala = Flagship
Agartala Government Medical College is the only govt college. 118 MBBS seats, very affordable at govt tuition fee. NMC approved 150 seats from NMC (session 2024–25 onwards).
Two Private Colleges
Tripura Medical College & Dr. BRAM Teaching Hospital (80 seats) and Tripura Santiniketan Medical College (75 seats). Private fees at prescribed rates of Tripura Santiniketan MC.
Non-Domicile Access
20 seats at TMC and 75 seats at TSMC reserved for All India other than Tripura domicile. This is the non-domicile route via state counselling itself.
TRMCC (Tripura Medical Counselling Committee) conducts counselling
Counselling via trmcc.admissions.nic.in. Handles govt + private seats for Tripura domicile and All India non-domicile seats at private colleges. MCC handles AIQ (15% of govt seats). 4 rounds: R1, R2, R3 + Stray Vacancy.

Non-domicile SC/ST/OBC get reserved seats in Tripura
Unlike most states where non-domicile = general merit only, Tripura reserves category seats for non-domicile candidates:
  • TMC (20 non-domicile seats): SC 3 + OBC 5 + ST 1 + UR 11
  • TSMC (75 non-domicile seats): SC 11 + OBC 20 + ST 6 + UR 38
Total 95 non-domicile seats with category reservation — 36 reserved + 49 UR + 10 more at TSMC. An SC candidate from Bihar or UP can use their SC category in Tripura state counselling. This is rare in India.
