Department of Management Studies - IIT Delhi Cut Off Details

Department of Management Studies – IIT Delhi, New Delhi – Cut Offs

Department of Management Studies (DMS) at IIT Delhi maintains consistently high CAT cutoffs, typically around 98 percentile overall for General category candidates, reflecting its competitive admissions for limited MBA seats. These cutoffs serve as shortlisting thresholds rather than final admission marks, with sectional requirements ensuring balanced proficiency across Quant, VARC, and DILR. Trends show stability over years, prioritizing top performers for the subsequent PI rounds.

Previous Year Cutoffs

DMS IIT Delhi's CAT cutoffs have remained stringent, with 2024 closing at 98.04 percentile across all sections for General category, matching 2023 and 2022 levels.
Qualifying cutoffs start lower at 90 percentile overall for General (85 EWS/OBC, 75 SC, 65 ST, 60 PwD), but actual shortlists demand 97-99+ due to high applicant volume for ~115 seats.
For 2025 (used in 2026 admissions), expected trends mirror this, with final calls based on composite scores post-PI.

Category-Wise Cutoff Trends

Category	Overall Qualifying (Percentile)	Shortlisting (Expected 2025, Percentile)	Sectional Min. (All Sections)	2022-24 Actual
General	90	97-98	80	98.04
EWS	85	95-97	80	~97
OBC-NCL	85	95-97	75	~97
SC	75	90-95	65	~94
ST	65	80-90	55	~85
PwD	60	75-85	50	~80

Trends indicate General cutoffs stable at 98+, with reserved categories 5-15 points lower; sectional parity prevents lopsided profiles.
Female diversity adds marginal relaxation in final merit.

Exam-Wise Cutoffs

Admissions rely solely on CAT scores; no other exams accepted for full-time MBA (General/Telecom).
Qualifying requires minimum sectionals: 80 (General), scaling down by category, with overall aggregate.
Historical data (2022-24) shows uniform 98.04 across VARC/DILR/QA, emphasizing no weak links.
Executive MBA uses separate criteria (CAT/GMAT + work exp.), not CAT-only.

Admission Criteria

Shortlisting uses composite index: CAT 65%, Academics 16% (10th: 3%, 12th: 3%, Grad: 10%), Work Ex 7%, Gender Diversity 12%.
Minimum CAT percentiles apply first, then ~500-600 candidates advance to PI (March 2026), weighted at 100% for final merit—no GD/WAT confirmed.
Eligibility mandates bachelor's with 60% (55% reserved), final-year provisional.
Work ex boosts but isn't mandatory; top 98+ profiles dominate calls.

Factors Influencing Cutoffs

High cutoffs stem from 20,000+ applications for 92 (General MBA) + 23 (Telecom) seats, NIRF #4 ranking, and INR 22+ LPA averages.
Cutoffs rise slightly in strong CAT years (e.g., 2024 stability despite volatility).
Reserved seats maintain proportional cutoffs while diversity quotas ensure balanced cohorts.
Post-shortlist, PI assesses communication, leadership, and tech aptitude, often converting 20-25% of calls.
Applicants targeting DMS should aim 99+ for safety, given IIT brand pull.
