All ranks are NEET All-India ranks of the LAST candidate allotted to Prathima Institute of Medical Sciences (KNRUHS UG code PRTM(049), PG code PRTM(053)) — computed by us from the official KNRUHS college-wise allotment lists, since KNRUHS publishes allotments rather than a cutoff table. UG Cat-A: the Mop-up list is the final convener state (the CQ Stray list contains no Prathima rows); all 125 Cat-A seats filled, worst allotted rank 3,27,126 (BC-A). UG Cat-B/C: the Stray Vacancy list is final; all 125 management-side seats filled — note the striking split where the 13 open Cat-B seats closed at 1,19,298 while the 74 Telangana-local Cat-B seats ran to 4,09,410 and the 38 NRI seats to 11,36,785. NRI seats fill late and deep — NEET qualification is still mandatory, and allotment is by NEET merit among MQ applicants, so no rank inside these ranges assures a seat in any future year. PG: per-specialty last-allotted ranks from the final CQ Stray (26.02.2026) and MQ Stray (28.02.2026) rounds; specialties with no allotment in the final round (e.g. ENT and Biochemistry on the MQ side, Microbiology and Physiology on the CQ side) are omitted rather than estimated.

Scholarships
No institutional MBBS scholarship scheme is published on the college's official site, and none is claimed here. The economics of the seat categories themselves do the work in Telangana: Cat-A (convener) tuition is state-regulated at Rs 60,000 a year, while Cat-B and Cat-C are the management-priced tiers under G.O.Ms. No.106. Students should verify any Telangana government fee-reimbursement eligibility for their category with the state authorities directly.
Infrastructure & facilities
Labs, library, sports, hostels & campus facilities
The campus sits on Nagunur Road at Nagunur village on the northern edge of Karimnagar city, about 165 km from Hyderabad, with the college, the 1,060-bed Prathima Hospital, hostels and staff quarters on one site. The college's facilities page describes an air-conditioned central library seating 500 with separate staff reading and journal rooms and the university MEDNET e-resource link, skill labs, a 1,000-seat auditorium, separate boys' and girls' hostel blocks with messing, sports and gym facilities, a blood bank, Medical/Cardiac/Neonatal/Surgical ICUs, 24-hour emergency and ambulance services, an on-campus bank branch and ATM, power generators and the college's own mineral-water plant. The NMC disclosure pro-forma confirms a skill lab and at least 75% student accommodation on campus.

Prathima Institute of Medical Sciences (PIMS) at Nagunur, Karimnagar is one of north Telangana's largest private medical colleges — established in 2001 under the Prathima Educational Society (the college's own MSR pro-forma gives 2002 as the year of inception, with the first MBBS Letter of Permission for 150 seats dated 12.11.2002 — both official versions are shown rather than silently picking one), affiliated to Kaloji Narayana Rao University of Health Sciences (KNRUHS), Warangal, and grown from 150 MBBS seats to 200 (LoP of 15.06.2015) and then 250 — the largest private MBBS intake outside the Hyderabad metro in the NMC's final AY 2025-26 seat matrix. Its distinctive marks are unusually concrete for a district-town college: the President of India, Shri Ram Nath Kovind, inaugurated the hospital's Thalassemia and Sickle Cell centre on 22 December 2018 (documented with a photo gallery on the college's own site); the college's homepage slider shows a '24th annual day' photograph with an upload path of December 2025, indicating the celebration in December 2025; and it hosts PRAANA, a national undergraduate medical research-academics-and-networking conference (March 2026 edition, two days with its own e-brochure). Research output is documented in the MSR pro-forma's multi-page faculty publication list spanning pharmacology, dermatology and other departments, a dedicated List of Research Publications page, and a PG Research page; a third-year student took 3rd place in the oral research paper presentation at the CONNAISSANCE 2025 international UG conference at JIPMER per the official achievements page. The official teaching-staff page lists department-wise faculty across 20 departments from Anatomy to Respiratory Medicine, including Dentistry. The same achievements page records the leadership: Chairman Shri Srinivarao Boinipally felicitating Dean Dr. Achanta Vivekanand, and Director Dr. Harini Boinipally awarding graduation certificates. One caution belongs in the open: the NMC Stipend Detail List entry for this college mis-states the affiliating university as 'Dr. YSR University of Health Sciences' — an Andhra Pradesh university; that is a clerical error in the NMC list, and the KNRUHS affiliation is confirmed by the NMC's own college pro-forma, the college site and every KNRUHS counselling document.

FAQ
Prathima Institute of Medical Sciences FAQs
What is the NEET cutoff for Prathima Institute of Medical Sciences Karimnagar?
Computed from the official KNRUHS college-wise allotment lists for AY 2025-26 (final rounds): in the convener (Cat-A) quota the last Open Competition allotment was NEET All-India rank 1,83,481, with reserved categories running deeper — BC-D 1,87,759, BC-B 2,02,138, BC-E 2,12,232, ST 2,48,444, SC sub-categories up to 2,88,916, BC-C 3,01,430 and BC-A 3,27,126. These are last-allotted ranks in the Mop-up round, not a published cutoff table, and they shift every year.
Is Prathima Institute of Medical Sciences Karimnagar the same as the Prathima group's other medical college near Warangal?
No — the Prathima group runs a second, entirely separate medical college in the Warangal urban area, with its own KNRUHS counselling code, a smaller 150-seat MBBS intake and a lower Cat-B fee row in the same government order. This page covers only the Karimnagar college on Nagunur Road: KNRUHS counselling code PRTM(049), 250 MBBS seats, Cat-B Rs 12,00,000 a year. When reading any KNRUHS allotment list or fee table, match the code PRTM(049) — fee and cutoff numbers for the two Prathima colleges are not interchangeable.
What will the Prathima Karimnagar MBBS fee be for AY 2026-27?
Not yet decided by the government. The current fees come from G.O.Ms. No.106, which fixes the 2023-26 block ending with AY 2025-26. The Telangana Admission and Fee Regulatory Committee opened the 2026-27 to 2028-29 fee-determination cycle on 25.09.2025, and as of 12.06.2026 the resulting new fee GO had not been issued. Any '2026-27 fee' figure circulating before that GO exists is speculation; this page will carry the new numbers once the government notifies them.
What are the hostel facilities at Prathima Institute of Medical Sciences Karimnagar?
On-campus hostels with mess for both men and women: the men's hostel has a 466-student room capacity (16 single + 150 triple rooms) and the women's hostel 646 (39 single, 128 double, 117 triple), per the college's statutory MSR pro-forma (2021 snapshot, when 175 men and 340 women were in residence). The NMC pro-forma confirms at least 75% student accommodation on campus. Hostel and mess charges are not published anywhere official, so no fee figure is claimed.
What stipend do PG residents get at Prathima Institute of Medical Sciences?
The NMC Stipend Detail List (college report received 2024) records the state-government PG stipend rate of Rs 58,289 per month against this college, with the college reporting it pays 'as mentioned by state Govt.' The UG (intern) stipend figure for this college cannot be read unambiguously from the NMC PDF's row layout, so none is claimed. Note the same NMC list mis-states the affiliating university as an Andhra Pradesh one — a clerical error; the college is KNRUHS-affiliated per the NMC's own pro-forma and every KNRUHS document.
Is Prathima Institute of Medical Sciences safe and ragging-free?
The college publishes an Anti-Ragging Committee page on its official site, as NMC/UGC regulations require of every medical college, and the national anti-ragging framework (the UGC anti-ragging portal antiragging.in) applies. Students can verify the current committee composition on the college's anti-ragging page before admission.
