Required Entrance Exams

NEET-UG (Karnataka State Quota - Community/Category Reservation)

Eligibility Criteria

Karnataka-domicile candidates; category-wise minimum qualifying percentile/marks relaxed for reserved communities versus General/Unreserved (GM).

Admission Process

State Quota seats are filled via KEA's AYUSH counselling using Karnataka's standard community reservation matrix: General/Unreserved (GM), Scheduled Caste (SC), Scheduled Tribe (ST), and OBC sub-categories Category-1, 2A, 2B, 3A, and 3B, each carrying its own reserved seat share. Candidates claiming reservation must hold a valid Karnataka caste/category certificate and domicile proof.

Important Notice

The exact category-wise seat-matrix percentage for a given year is published by KEA in its AYUSH counselling information bulletin each cycle; the 15% All India Quota follows central reservation norms (SC/ST/OBC-NCL/EWS/PwD) instead of Karnataka's state-specific community matrix; Management Quota seats are not bound by this community-reservation structure.
