During NEET UG Counselling, a character certificate is generally considered valid for only 6 months to 1 year from the date of issue. Since you are taking a drop year for NEET 2027, your school-issued certificate will be expired by the time you reach counselling.
Dear Student,
You can participate in the All India Quota (AIQ) and DNB counselling of 2026. However, you may be asked for the financial and state-level penalties associated with breaking your admission bond.
