I applied for the college through CAT/NMAT and also you can get in by giving IBSAT exam. 60% was the minimum required for the above-mentioned exams and selection also depends on the number of the applied students. I found the application by visiting the IBS website and other details were also there. I think it was a good and simplified process.
