Yes, for Indian students specifically - not for Italian admission itself, but because India's NMC requires a qualifying NEET score to later issue your eligibility certificate and let you sit the FMGE/NExT exam after graduating. These exams are required for practising back in India.

The IMAT (International Medical Admissions Test) is the entrance exam Italian public universities actually use to rank and select candidates for English-taught Medicine and Surgery programs - NEET alone won't get you a seat.
IMAT is a 100-minute, 60-question test covering reading comprehension, logical reasoning, biology, chemistry, physics and maths. It is open to both EU and non-EU applicants including Indians. NEET still matters separately, since it's required by India's NMC for future licensing (FMGE/NExT) back home.
