If you were allotted a seat in **Round 1 of AIQ counseling** but didn’t join and did not participate in **Round 2**, you will generally **not be eligible for a refund of the security deposit**.

According to the rules of the **Medical Counseling Committee (MCC)** for All India Quota (AIQ) counseling, the security deposit is usually forfeited if:

1. You were allotted a seat in any round (e.g., Round 1) but failed to join the college.

2. You didn’t participate in subsequent rounds (like Round 2) after being allotted a seat in Round 1.

The security deposit is meant to ensure commitment to the seat allotment process. If you don't join the allotted seat or exit the counseling without following the proper procedures (like resigning within the specified time frame), your deposit is typically forfeited as a penalty.

However, if you officially withdrew from the seat within the specified time before the Round 2 deadline, you may be eligible for a refund. It’s important to review the specific refund policies and deadlines of MCC for your counseling year or contact the **MCC helpdesk** for clarification on your situation.

hope this helps you!!
