IIM Mumbai Cutoff 2025: Check Category-wise and Round-wise Cutoff

As far as I know, if you have a score of 750 or higher, you will be contacted for an interview. For admission to NITIE, you have to pass the Group Discussion (GD) and Personal Interview (PI).

If you fall into one of the reserved categories, your required score will be lower in order to be called in for an interview.

Focus on acing your GATE so that everything works out in your favor. It carries a weightage of 35% for your final selection.

As NITIE is a very reputed and popular college, the minimum CAT percentile required for admission is generally high. There are several factors that are considered before announcing the cut-off marks. These include - number of candidates applied for admission, the average performance of the candidates, availability of seats, etc. 

• The cut-off of CAT for OBC students is 75+, but it has now probably increased to 80. 
• It is better to aim for a higher percentile, around 80-85 so that the chances of getting admission are improved. 
• They give different weightage to CAT, GD, PI, 10th, 12th, and Graduation marks for the final merit list. 
• In NITIE, only 30% weightage is given to the CAT score for the final selection. 
• The major part of the selection is the Group Discussion and Personal Interview round in order to get admission to NITIE. 

Hence, the cutoff marks of CAT are very high even for OBC students to get a call from this college. You will also have to clear the Group Discussion and Personal Interview round, which is a very important part to get admission to this college.

Yes, NITIE has sectional cut-offs. Here is an overview. 

The sectional and overall cut-off for the academic year 2021-23 for PGDIM and PGDSM for all categories was as follows.

Sectional cutoff for PGDIM:

I hope this gives you an idea about what to expect in the cut-offs. 

The college does not release cut-offs for the reserved categories. However, it can be predicted from the general cut-off.

The cut-off for the general category usually lies between 97 percentile- 98 percentile. So, the cut-off for OBC can be 90-92 percentile and for other categories, it can lie around 80.

Since you have not mentioned any particular course, here is the past trend for PGDIM and PGDISEM. 

Note that these vary every year depending on the number of applications received.

It is suggested to fill up maximum programs in NITIE Mumbai. In the initial stage, most of the IIT and NIT are occupied by students who finally go to PSU’s. A lot of vacancies are created in these institutes; you just have to keep yourself updated with it and apply for it. 

• Students with 50-65 marks join any good institute like IIT BHU, ISM Dhanbad, NIT Jamshedpur, MANIT Bhopal, NIT Patna, etc. 
• It is wise to contact the seniors already present there and talk to them about the preparation.
• Students with marks 35-50 should try again and the ones who secured less than 35 should join private jobs. 
• GATE is not the last option. There are approximately 225 more PSUs and IES, RRB, State Govt. and many more job opportunities left. 
• PSU calls students up to rank 2000 and the seats are confirmed till AIR 500 and the rest depends on the interview. 
• NITIE Mumbai is a good option if you have a rank from 500-3000. 
• M.Tech is excellent from institutes such as IISC and top IITs.
