The security amount deposited will be refunded only after the completion of counselling. No requisition of refund will be considered during the counselling.This fee will be forfeited if the candidate who has been allotted a seat in the first, second or stray round does not join the respective institution. Also, the security fee will be forfeited in case the candidate gives wrong information at the time of registration, based on which a seat may be allotted and later cancelled by the Admission Authorities at the time of reporting. The refundable fee will be refunded only after completion of all the rounds of counselling. REFUNDMeanwhile, the security amount will be refunded only after the completion of all rounds of Counseling. MCC will notify about the completion of counselling on their website. The Financial Custodian will initiate the refund of the security deposit within 15 days of such notification and complete it within 30 days of such notification. The security amount will be refunded to the same account from which the security amount was initially deposited by the candidate.Hence, the candidate must keep their card/bank account active till refund process is completed. If the card/bank account is closed before the completion of the refund, the bankers will not be able to complete the refund process. Since bankers will take a long time to identify & return the failed refunds to the Financial Custodian and legal formalities are to be complied with for initiating a refund to a different bank account, a refund to a new bank account will take a very long time. Neither Financial Custodian nor MCC will be responsible for such a delay.The security deposit will be refunded only to the account from which the security deposit was initially deposited. The candidates are advised not to use unrelated card/bank accounts for remitting the security deposit.The candidate can approach the Financial Custodian after 15 days of the closing of the Registration Window. The Financial custodian will refund the excess payment, if any, within 30 days of the closing of the Registration Window. The financial custodian will deduct 50% of the Regn Fees or Rs 500/whichever is less, from each excess receipt refund towards Admn. expensesThe candidate need not approach the Financial Custodian for a refund of the security amount. The Medical Counselling Committee will publish the list of candidates who are eligible for the refund of the security amount on the MCC website once all rounds of counselling are completed. The Financial Custodian will initiate the refund of the security amount within 15working days and complete the refund of the security deposit within 30 days of publishing the eligible list on the MCC Website. Once the Financial Custodian completes the refund, MCC will publish the refund details along with the refund date & transaction # on the MCC website within 45 days of publishing the eligible list on the MCC Website. The refund will be credited, depending upon the level of digitalisation of the candidate’s bank, to the candidate’s account between 2 and 15 days from the date of refund by the Financial Custodian.Subsequently, the candidates who have been allotted a roll number should not initiate refund proceedings through a chargeback claim through the card issuing bank. If the chargeback claim is initiated, the Financial Custodian /MCC will be debarred by the Payment Gateway Service Providers from initiating a direct refund. The candidate has to approach only their card-issuing banks for refunds. For initiating a manual refund by the Financial Custodian, the candidate should withdraw the chargeback claim and produce a no-objection certificate from the card issuing bank stating that the chargeback claim is withdrawn & card issuing banker do not have any objection to the Financial Custodian refunding the deposit. As this process takes a lot of time and the refund will be inordinately delayed. Hence, candidates are advised not to initiate a chargeback claim.The Financial Custodian can be contacted through email. The Financial Custodian will respond only to the emails through the mail ID registered in the application form. However, the Bank Charges, if any, incurred by the candidate should be borne by the candidate only. Also, MCC/HLL will not pay interest on the refundable security deposit.Additionally, MCC cannot, as per Reserve Bank of India (RBI) Rules, refund the security deposit to an NRI Account. If the candidate wants to use the funds available in his/ her NRI Account for registering for counselling, the candidate has to first transfer funds from their NRI Account to their NRO Account and from their NRO Account to MCC. The refund from MCC will be credited to the NRO Account only.DOCUMENTSOriginal documents required at the time of joining the allotted Medical College are as mentioned below-1 Provisional Allotment Letter issued by MCC.2 Admit Card issued by NBE.3 Result/Rank Letter issued by NBE.4 MBBS Degree Certificate/Provisional Certificate. 5 MD/MS/DNB Degree Certificate in the concerned Speciality. 6 Permanent Registration Certificate of MBBS/MD/MS/DNB issued by MCI/NMC or NBE/State Medical Council.
