Overview

About Siddaganga Medical College

Siddaganga Medical College and Research Institute, Tumakuru is a private medical college (rguhs-affiliated) in Tumkur (Tumakuru), Karnataka. Siddaganga Medical College and Research Institute, Tumakuru offers 20 programmes, 1 at undergraduate level and 19 at postgraduate level. These include MBBS (Bachelor of Medicine, Bachelor of Surgery), MD - General Medicine, MS - General Surgery, MS - Obstetrics & Gynaecology and MD - Paediatrics, among others. The stated sanctioned intake across these programmes totals 271 seats. The college's signed 1st MBBS Fee Structure for 2025-26 publishes the hostel charges: Rs 1,20,000 per year as Establishment & Mess Charges (vegetarian) plus a Rs 1,00,000 caution deposit that is one-time and refundable upon completion of the course. Room sharing options, AC/non-AC tiers and hostel capacity are not published anywhere official, so nothing beyond the signed figures is claimed here. Despite its age the college publishes early RGUHS university-exam results: its first batch passed the first professional exam at 88.67 percent (156 appeared), the 2023-24 batch at 92.31 percent, and second/third professional passes have ranged from 91.89 to 98.60 percent across batches per the Principal-signed result-analysis PDF. The NMC pro-forma's research section lists indexed publications from its clinical departments. Growth has been rapid: the NMC's Final UG Seat Matrix of 03.12.2025 shows the MBBS intake raised from 150 to 200 for AY 2025-26, and the NMC tentative PG seat matrix of 30.01.2026 granted 19 brand-new MD/MS courses (71 seats) that KEA allotted in the NEET-PG 2025 rounds. Note the name carefully: this is NOT Sri Siddhartha Medical College (a deemed-university college also in Tumkur) and not Shridevi Institute of Medical Sciences (the city's other private medical college) — three different Tumkur institutions with separate fees, codes and cut-offs. The campus sits on B.H. Road (Bengaluru–Honnavar Road), Tumakuru, alongside the college's own teaching hospital. Academic facilities described on the college's official pages include modern lecture halls, a 'State-of-the-Art Library' with PubMed, Elsevier and Google Scholar digital access, a Medical Education Unit (DOME) and a Skills & Simulation Lab with high-fidelity mannequins for simulation-based medical education — the lab corridor carries its own 'SKILLS & SIMULATION LAB-SMCRI' signage. Student support includes faculty mentorship and counselling/mental-health support per the college's student-support page.

Cutoffs · NEET-UG

Siddaganga Medical College NEET-UG cutoffs

All cut-offs above are official KEA publications for this college alone, identified by its KEA code: M090 in the UG (UGNEET) PDFs and M69 in KEA's separate PG-counselling code series — both lists print the college's full name on every row, and every value here was re-read at character coordinates from the PDFs. UG figures are NEET-UG All-India ranks from CET-2024 Round 2 (general + private publications, the latest consolidated KEA medical cut-off set available): the government/state-quota General Merit seat closed at rank 61,282, the private (Open) tier at 1,04,214, the Others/management tier at 5,96,043 and the NRI tier at 12,53,620. Management and NRI seats carry no merit-rank floor beyond NEET qualification — the closing ranks simply show where those tiers actually filled. PG figures are NEET-PG 2025 All-India ranks: because the MD/MS seats were granted mid-season, the college appears only from KEA's Round 2 onward, and the rows shown are the last-allotted rank per course and quota computed from KEA's 3rd-round (mop-up) final allotment list of 26-02-2026 — computed readings from the official per-candidate lists, not a KEA-published consolidated cut-off. The pattern is typical of a first PG cohort: MD Radio Diagnosis closed tightest (government quota at rank 8,970) while its management (MNG) seat went to rank 2,27,469. Pre- and para-clinical PG seats other than Pathology (Anatomy, Physiology, Biochemistry, Microbiology, Pharmacology, Forensic Medicine, Community Medicine) show no allotments in the published lists. This college's MBBS seats fill through KEA alone — it is a private RGUHS-affiliated (non-deemed) college, so there is no MCC All-India Quota route here; the official MCC NEET-PG 2025 allotment dataset (69,147 rows) was checked and contains no row for this college.

Scholarships

Scholarships

No MBBS scholarship or fee-waiver scheme is published on the college's official site, and none is claimed here. Karnataka government/state-quota students can pursue SSP/NSP government scholarship schemes independently of the college. The Math's famed free Gurukula education programme (boarding and schooling for about 10,000 underprivileged rural boys, per the Math's About page) is a charitable programme of the parent Math — it is not an MBBS scholarship of this medical college.

Research & rankings

Centres, patents, grants & MoU partners

Siddaganga Medical College and Research Institute (SMCRI), Tumakuru, is the medical college of Sree Siddaganga Math — described on the college's own pages as one of South India's most renowned spiritual centres with a history of over 600 years, whose Gurukula gives free education, boarding and lodging to about 10,000 underprivileged rural boys, and whose late president His Holiness Dr. Sree Sree Shivakumara Mahashivayogi received the Karnataka Ratna (2007) and Padma Bhushan (2015). Those honours belong to the Math and its seer — the medical college itself is young: 'Siddaganga medical college and research institute was established in the year 2022-23' per the About page, with NMC year of inception 2022, code KA/058/P/3, and MBBS Permitted under a Letter of Permission dated 23-08-2023 — not yet Recognised ('Status of Recognition: Not Applicable' in the NMC pro-forma), the normal position until the first batch reaches the final MBBS examination. Despite its age the college publishes early RGUHS university-exam results: its first batch passed the first professional exam at 88.67 percent (156 appeared), the 2023-24 batch at 92.31 percent, and second/third professional passes have ranged from 91.89 to 98.60 percent across batches per the Principal-signed result-analysis PDF. The NMC pro-forma's research section lists indexed publications from its clinical departments. Growth has been rapid: the NMC's Final UG Seat Matrix of 03.12.2025 shows the MBBS intake raised from 150 to 200 for AY 2025-26, and the NMC tentative PG seat matrix of 30.01.2026 granted 19 brand-new MD/MS courses (71 seats) that KEA allotted in the NEET-PG 2025 rounds. Note the name carefully: this is NOT Sri Siddhartha Medical College (a deemed-university college also in Tumkur) and not Shridevi Institute of Medical Sciences (the city's other private medical college) — three different Tumkur institutions with separate fees, codes and cut-offs.

FAQ

Siddaganga Medical College FAQs

How many MBBS seats does Siddaganga Medical College Tumkur have?
200 MBBS seats for AY 2025-26 per the NMC's Final UG Seat Matrix as on 03.12.2025 — the intake was raised from 150 to 200 in the college's fourth admission cycle. The first Letter of Permission (dated 23-08-2023) granted 150 seats, the NMC pro-forma records 150 students admitted for Session 2024-25, and the college's RGUHS result-analysis PDF shows batches of roughly 150 from 2022-23 onward.
Is Siddaganga Medical College recognised by the NMC?
It is Permitted, not yet Recognised. The college's NMC mandatory-disclosure pro-forma records the first Letter of Permission (No. NMC / UG / 2022 / 000181 / 032237, dated 23-08-2023, 150 MBBS seats) and states 'Status of Recognition: Not Applicable' — standard for a 2022-established college, since recognition is considered only when the first batch reaches the final MBBS examination. The NMC code is KA/058/P/3, and the NMC's seat matrices list it with 200 MBBS seats for AY 2025-26 plus newly granted PG courses.
What are the hostel fees at Siddaganga Medical College?
Per the college's signed 1st MBBS Fee Structure for 2025-26: Establishment & Mess Charges of Rs 1,20,000 per year (vegetarian mess) plus a Rs 1,00,000 caution deposit, one-time and refundable upon completion of the course. Sharing options, AC/non-AC tiers and capacity are not published officially, so nothing more is claimed — confirm details with the college at admission.
What is the MBBS pass percentage at Siddaganga Medical College?
Early RGUHS university-exam results are published in the college's Principal-signed result-analysis PDF: the first batch (2022-23) passed the first professional exam at 88.67 percent (156 appeared) and went on to 97.27 percent in the second and 98.60 percent in the third professional; the 2023-24 batch passed the first professional at 92.31 percent and the 2024-25 batch at 93.95 percent. No batch has reached the final MBBS examination yet, so no final-MBBS pass percentage exists — and degree recognition follows that first final batch.
Is Siddaganga Medical College safe — are there anti-ragging and harassment committees?
Yes. The college's published committees PDF (April 2026) constitutes an Anti-Ragging Committee, a Grievance Redressal Cell, an Internal Complaint Committee (ICC) for women's safety under the POSH framework, an Institutional Ethical Committee, a Pharmacovigilance Committee and a Curriculum Committee. The national UGC anti-ragging portal (antiragging.in) applies in addition to the college's own committees.
Who runs Siddaganga Medical College and what is it known for?
The college is 'A unit of Sree Siddaganga Math' per its own fee-structure letterhead — the 600-year-old Tumakuru Math whose Gurukula educates about 10,000 underprivileged rural boys free of cost, and whose late seer received the Karnataka Ratna (2007) and Padma Bhushan (2015); the Math's About page also names the Sree Siddaganga Education Society, which runs about 125 institutions. The 2022 medical college itself is known for scale early in life: a hospital registered a year before the college with 932-plus beds and roughly 69,000 outpatients a month, an MBBS intake already raised to 200, 19 newly granted MD/MS courses, and first-batch RGUHS pass rates of 88.67 to 98.60 percent. Its Executive Director, Dr. S. Sacchidanand, is a former RGUHS Vice-Chancellor.
