For candidates seeking a PwBD seat under the 85% State Quota, the notification states that they may approach the State Disability Boards for obtaining the required disability certificate. The assessment is to be conducted according to the applicable NCISM Guidelines, 2026.

The KNRUHS UG AYUSH Competent Authority Quota process covers BAMS, BHMS, BUMS and BNYS. KNRUHS has also issued a separate BHMS AIQ counselling process for the 2026-27 academic year.

KNRUHS UG AYUSH 2026-27: Quota-Wise Current Status

Quota	Course/Admission Route	Current Status

AIQ – All India Quota	BHMS	Final Merit List Released; First Phase Web Options Open
MQ – Management Quota	UG AYUSH	No current UG AYUSH MQ allotment notification is listed on the latest KNRUHS admission page

UG AYUSH CQ 2026-27: BAMS, BHMS, BUMS and BNYS

Under the Competent Authority Quota (CQ), KNRUHS is conducting admissions to BAMS, BHMS, BUMS and BNYS courses.

The university extended the last date for online registration and submission of applications for UG AYUSH CQ admissions. The revised deadline was September 28, 2026, up to 5:00 PM.

Therefore, as of September 29, the CQ registration window has closed.

Current CQ status: Registration completed/closed after the extended deadline.

The next important step for CQ candidates is the merit-list and counselling/web-options process. Candidates should wait for KNRUHS to publish the next official notification containing the eligible/final merit list, seat matrix and web-options schedule.

BHMS AIQ 2026-27: First Phase Web Options Open

The BHMS All India Quota (AIQ) counselling is currently at the First Phase Web Options stage.

KNRUHS has released the final merit list for BHMS AIQ candidates and opened the first phase of web-based counselling.

BHMS AIQ Important Dates

Activity	Date & Time
Final Merit List	September 28, 2026
First Phase Web Options Begins	September 28, 2026 – 3:00 PM
Web Options Last Date	September 30, 2026 – 2:00 PM
Seat Allotment	To be announced
Reporting/Joining	To be announced after allotment

The current AIQ counselling is specifically for BHMS, so candidates should not treat this web-options schedule as the schedule for BAMS, BUMS or BNYS.

BHMS AIQ: What Candidates Need to Do Now

Candidates whose names are included in the BHMS AIQ final merit list should exercise their web options before September 30, 2026, at 2:00 PM.

The current counselling covers 42 AIQ BHMS seats in three private homoeopathy colleges in Telangana, according to the current counselling information.

Candidates should carefully select and prioritize their preferred colleges during the web-options process.

Seat allotment has not yet been released. Therefore, candidates should wait for the official allotment result and follow the university’s instructions regarding university fee payment, allotment-letter download and college reporting after allotment.

What About BAMS, BUMS and BNYS Under AIQ?

The current KNRUHS admission notifications do not show a separate 2026-27 AIQ First Phase Web Options notification for BAMS, BUMS or BNYS.

The currently active AIQ counselling notification listed by KNRUHS is specifically for BHMS. Therefore, BAMS, BUMS and BNYS candidates should not assume that the current BHMS AIQ web-options schedule applies to their courses.

What About Management Quota (MQ)?

For UG AYUSH Management Quota (MQ), the latest KNRUHS admission notification list does not currently show a 2026-27 UG AYUSH MQ web-options or seat-allotment notification.

Therefore, there is no current UG AYUSH MQ allotment date or reporting deadline to announce based on the latest official KNRUHS admission notifications.

Candidates interested in UG AYUSH Management Quota admissions should wait for a specific KNRUHS MQ notification before considering the counselling stage active.

What Candidates Need to Do Now

BHMS AIQ candidates: Complete and lock web options by September 30, 2026, at 2:00 PM.

BAMS, BHMS, BUMS and BNYS CQ candidates: The CQ registration deadline has passed. Candidates should now watch for the next merit-list/seat-matrix/web-options notification from KNRUHS.

MQ candidates: Wait for the separate UG AYUSH Management Quota counselling notification from KNRUHS. No current allotment/reporting deadline is listed for UG AYUSH MQ.

What Happens Next?

For BHMS AIQ, the immediate next step after web options is First Phase Seat Allotment. Candidates allotted a seat will then have to follow the university’s instructions for fee payment, allotment-letter download and college reporting.

For UG AYUSH CQ, the next important update is the merit list/seat matrix and web-options schedule after completion of registration.

For UG AYUSH MQ, candidates should wait for KNRUHS to release the specific Management Quota counselling schedule.

Candidates should follow the course- and quota-specific notification issued by KNRUHS because the counselling schedules for CQ and BHMS AIQ are different.
