2. Management / Direct Admission Quota (Category-B Seats): 30% of seats are filled directly by the institution using national-level entrance scores (CAT, MAT, CMAT, XAT, ATMA) or TG ICET ranks, followed by candidate screening and verification.

2. Eligibility Criteria

To be considered for admission through counseling or direct management quota, candidates must satisfy the following minimum requirements:

• Academic Foundation: A Bachelor’s degree (10+2+3 or 10+2+4 pattern) in any discipline from a recognized university with at least 50% aggregate marks (45% for SC/ST/reserved categories).
