NEET PG cut-off trend
In December 2023, the Union Health Ministry reported 247 vacant PG medical seats following the completion of counselling. Due to the high number of unfilled seats, NEET PG aspirants and medical groups urged the NMC to lower the cut-off percentile by 10-15 marks. The Indian Medical Association (IMA) suggested a 30 per cent reduction to address vacancies in both clinical and non-clinical courses. On September 20, the Union Ministry of Health and Family Welfare approved the NMC's recommendation to set the qualifying percentile for NEET PG 2023 to "zero" across all categories. Below is the NEET PG cut-off from the previous year before it was adjusted.
| Category | Minimum Qualifying Marks | Cutoff scores |
| General/EWS | 50 Percentile | 291 |
| General-PwBD | 45 Percentile | 274 |
| SC,ST,OBC(PwBD of SC,ST,OBC) | 40 Percentile | 257 |
