Overview
About CDSIMER
Dr. Chandramma Dayananda Sagar Institute of Medical Education & Research, Harohalli is an university in Harohalli (Bengaluru South district), Karnataka. Dr. Chandramma Dayananda Sagar Institute of Medical Education & Research, Harohalli offers 14 programmes, 1 at undergraduate level and 13 at postgraduate level. These include MBBS (Bachelor of Medicine, Bachelor of Surgery), MD General Medicine, MS General Surgery, MS Obstetrics & Gynaecology and MD Anaesthesiology, among others. The stated sanctioned intake across these programmes totals 247 seats. The campus has exclusive hostels for men and women, described by the college as spacious, well-furnished accommodation within the 140-acre DSU campus. The college publishes neither a hostel fee table nor capacity numbers — the 'Hostel details for new admission 2025-26' link on its own site is empty — so no hostel fee is asserted here; confirm rates directly with the CollegeAndFees counsellor. The published UG admission process lists only the tuition tiers, a Rs 77,000-92,000 annual miscellaneous fee and the Rs 15,000 refundable caution deposit. The college runs a Central Research and Innovation Wing and publishes its staff's research output year-by-year (2020-2024 publication lists). It maintains the NMC-mandated faculty complement across 23 teaching departments — the published teaching-faculty roster (as on 31-03-2026) runs to roughly 365 named entries with no official total. Published MBBS results for AY 2023-24: Phase I 90.85 percent, Phase II 74.19 percent, Phase III Part-I 93.75 percent and Phase III Part-II 97.90 percent. The institute is named for Dr. Chandramma D Sagar, the first Indian woman doctor to earn a triple FRCS (London, Edinburgh, Glasgow) and an honorary surgeon to three Presidents of India. CDSIMER sits on a 140-acre Dayananda Sagar University health-sciences campus at Devarakaggalahalli, Harohalli, on Kanakapura Main Road about an hour south of central Bengaluru — a purpose-built neoclassical complex housing the medical college and the CDSIMER teaching hospital. Disclosed clinical volumes (October 2025): about 39,400 outpatient visits a month (~1,713 a day), 2,691 admissions, 5,414 surgeries including 1,030 major procedures, 217 births and 84.93 percent bed occupancy. The campus includes a skills lab, central research and innovation wing, separate men's and women's hostels, sports facilities and a large student cafeteria; a public NMC biometric-attendance dashboard (392 registered staff) is an unusual transparency feature.

Cutoffs · NEET-UG
CDSIMER NEET-UG cutoffs
Two official KEA cut-off sets are shown for CDSIMER (KEA code M083), both from CET-2024 Round 2 — the latest published KEA medical cut-offs. The first table is the government/state-quota closing ranks (sub-quota closings that round: GM-Kannada 93,601 · GM-Rural 78,732 · 1G-Rural 89,803 · 2A-Rural 93,851 · 2B-Rural 95,749 · 3A-Rural 81,919 · SC-Rural 2,34,308 · ST-Kannada 2,44,837 · ST-Rural 2,00,870). The second is from KEA's separate private-quota publication (private-quota GM-HK closing: 6,80,655): the private, open, NRI and Others/management seats also close on NEET rank in KEA counselling at this college. PG (MD/MS): the NEET-PG closing ranks shown are the last-allotted All-India ranks per course and quota in KEA's 'PG NEET-2025 MEDICAL (MD/MS) NON-INSERVICE 3rd ROUND FINAL SEAT ALLOTMENT LIST' of 26-02-2026 (published per Karnataka High Court orders in WP 11014/2026 and 2386/2026) — the last KEA PG-2025 list in which CDSIMER (KEA PG code M65, distinct from its UG code M083) appears; the non-in-service stray-round extended final list of 11-03-2026 contains no M65 rows. KEA's round-1 final list (29-11-2025) carried only MD Pathology and MD Community Medicine — the 11 clinical disciplines, whose NMC PG LOP is dated 12-12-2025, entered KEA counselling from the second round (final list 24-12-2025). MS Orthopaedics and MD Community Medicine hold no rows in the final mop-up list (earlier-round allotments did not persist), and no NRI-coded (M65N) PG allotment appears in any round — final closing ranks for these are not asserted. CDSIMER has no rows in MCC's NEET-PG 2025 all-India allotment lists: as a state-private-university college (not deemed), its PG seats are counselled only by KEA.

FAQ
CDSIMER FAQs
How many MBBS and PG seats does CDSIMER have?
200 MBBS seats from AY 2025-26 — the NMC MARB letter of 09-09-2025 raised the intake from 150 (some college pages still say 150; the NMC letter and seat matrix govern). PG: 13 MD/MS disciplines totalling 47 seats — MD Pathology and MD Community Medicine (4 each, started 2024-25) plus 11 clinical disciplines newly permitted for 2025-26: General Medicine, General Surgery, OBG, Anaesthesiology, Orthopaedics, Radio Diagnosis and Paediatrics (4 each), Dermatology, ENT and Ophthalmology (3 each) and Psychiatry (2). There are no DM/MCh courses yet.
Is CDSIMER recognised by the NMC? Which university is it under?
CDSIMER's MBBS is PERMITTED, not yet recognised — the college operates under the original Letter of Permission of February 2020 and annual NMC renewals (the NMC record marks the course 'Permitted'). This is normal for a new college: the first batch (2020-21) began the compulsory rotating internship in May 2025 per the DSU stipend notification, so it completes around mid-2026, and degree recognition is applied for after the first batch graduates. The college is a constituent of Dayananda Sagar University, a Karnataka state private university (Act of 2012, UGC 2(f)-listed), and its degrees are DSU degrees. It is NOT a deemed university — admission is via KEA, not MCC.
What stipend do interns and PG residents get at CDSIMER?
CDSIMER publishes both stipends — rare transparency among private colleges. Per DSU notifications of 06-03-2025: undergraduate interns doing the compulsory rotating internship from May 2025 receive Rs 28,889 per month (as specified by the Government of Karnataka), and PG residents (2024-25 batch) receive Rs 56,250 in year 1, Rs 62,500 in year 2 and Rs 68,750 in year 3.
What is the MBBS pass percentage at CDSIMER?
Per the college's published result analysis for AY 2023-24: Phase I (August 2024) 90.85 percent (139 of 153), Phase II 74.19 percent (115 of 155), Phase III Part-I (January 2025) 93.75 percent (135 of 144) and Phase III Part-II (April 2025) 97.90 percent (140 of 143). The examinations are conducted by Dayananda Sagar University.
Is CDSIMER's hospital NABH accredited? How big is it?
Yes — CDSIMER Hospital holds NABH accreditation certificate H-2024-1455, valid from November 2024 to November 2028, with 750 sanctioned beds and a scope covering interventional cardiology, CTVS, neurosurgery, dialysis, blood bank and MRI/CT/DSA imaging. The college's NMC disclosure distributes 434 beds across wards including a 116-bed critical-care complex (college pages variously say 650 and 900 beds rising to 1,350 — the figures conflict and the NABH and NMC-disclosure numbers are the verifiable ones). October 2025 disclosures: ~39,400 OPD visits, 2,691 admissions and 5,414 surgeries in the month, at 84.93 percent occupancy.
Is CDSIMER safe — are there anti-ragging and harassment committees?
Yes. The college publishes a 12-member Anti-Ragging Committee chaired by the Principal & Dean — including the Harohalli Police Inspector, a lawyer, hostel wardens, a parent and student representatives — and a 7-member Prevention against Gender Harassment Committee chaired by a senior woman professor, with an online POSH reporting portal. Ragging is a punishable offence; students are also protected by the UGC anti-ragging regulations.
What are the hostel fees at CDSIMER?
The college describes exclusive on-campus hostels for men and women on the 140-acre DSU campus, but publishes neither a hostel fee table nor capacity numbers — the hostel-details link for 2025-26 admissions on its own website is empty. No figure is asserted here; confirm hostel and mess charges directly with the College AndFees counsellor. The published charges are tuition, a Rs 77,000-92,000 annual miscellaneous fee and a Rs 15,000 refundable caution deposit.
What is CDSIMER known for?
It is named for Dr. Chandramma D Sagar, the first Indian woman doctor with a triple FRCS (London, Edinburgh, Glasgow) and honorary surgeon to three Presidents of India. Its PG programme grew from 0 to 13 disciplines within two admission cycles, it publishes both UG and PG stipends, and it runs a public NMC biometric-attendance dashboard — unusual transparency for a new college.
