Latest Update (June 18, 2026): The Second Merit List for SRCC GBO 2026-28 batch was released on June 3, 2026, along with an updated waiting list. The third merit list is expected on or around June 18, 2026, based on the ~15-day cadence observed between previous lists (first list: May 19, second list: June 3). Candidates on the waiting list must monitor srccgbo.edu.in and srcc.edu/announcements for the official announcement.

SRCC GBO 2026 is the admission process for the Post Graduate Diploma in Global Business Operations (PGDGBO) at Shri Ram College of Commerce (SRCC), a leading constituent college of the University of Delhi. Admission to the 94-seat programme is based on a three-stage process — a computer-based entrance test, Group Discussion, and Personal Interview — with the written test carrying 75% of the final selection score. For the 2026-28 batch, the entrance exam was held on February 28, 2026, results were declared on April 10, 2026, and the admission process is now in the merit list and seat confirmation phase.

  • Third Merit List: Expected on or around June 18, 2026 — the first merit list was released on May 19 and the second on June 3, maintaining a ~15-day gap. As of today, it has not been officially released. Waiting list candidates should track srccgbo.edu.in closely.
  • Fee Payment and Document Submission: Candidates listed in any merit list must pay ₹82,000 (first-semester fee) and submit original documents within 3–5 days of the merit list release date, as specified in the respective merit list notice — missing this deadline means forfeiting the seat.
  • Batch Commencement (2026-28): The new batch is expected to begin in August 2026. The 2025-27 batch had its orientation in the third week of July 2025, and the current batch is likely to follow a similar timeline.
  • SRCC GBO 2027 Notification: Applications for the next (2027-29) batch are expected to open in December 2026, consistent with the December 15, 2025 release date of the current cycle’s application form.

What is SRCC GBO?

SRCC GBO stands for Shri Ram College of Commerce – Global Business Operations. It refers to the admission exam and process for the Post Graduate Diploma in Global Business Operations (PGDGBO), a two-year, full-time management programme at SRCC under the University of Delhi. The programme was launched in 1999 and is designed to train commerce and business graduates in international trade, global finance, marketing strategy, and cross-border operations management.

SRCC is one of India’s most respected commerce colleges, consistently ranked among the top five in the country. The PGDGBO is not an MBA degree but a Post Graduate Diploma — yet it commands strong industry recognition due to SRCC’s brand and its specialised international business curriculum. The programme has a small intake of around 94 students per batch, which makes it one of the most selective PG diploma courses in India.

Candidates are selected through three stages: an objective-type computer-based test, a Group Discussion (GD) round, and a Personal Interview (PI). The written test carries 75% weightage in the final composite score, making it the most important stage. Students who complete the programme go on to work in global corporations, consulting firms, financial services companies, and multinational trading houses. SRCC GBO has consistently reported 100% placements, with average packages touching ₹11.81 LPA and the highest reaching ₹32 LPA in the most recent placement season (2025).

For students aspiring to careers in international business without a full MBA, SRCC GBO is one of the most credible and cost-effective options available in India.

SRCC GBO 2026 Eligibility Criteria

Before applying for SRCC GBO, you must make sure you meet the eligibility requirements. Applications that do not meet the criteria will be rejected at the document verification stage, even if you clear the written test and GD/PI rounds.

  • Candidates from OBC-NCL, SC, ST, PwD, and CW (Children or Widows of Armed Forces Personnel) categories need a minimum of 45% aggregate marks.
  • Students appearing in their final year of the qualifying degree can apply provisionally — but their admission will be confirmed only after they submit the final degree certificate and marksheets showing the required percentage.

Age Limit

SRCC does not prescribe an upper age limit for the SRCC GBO 2026 admission process. Any candidate who holds (or is completing) a graduation degree from a recognised university is eligible to apply, regardless of age.

SRCC GBO 2026 Admit Card

The SRCC GBO 2026 admit card was released on February 20, 2026 — eight days before the entrance exam on February 28, 2026. Candidates could download it by logging into the official portal with their application number and password.

The SRCC GBO 2026 admit card has been used. This section is a reference guide; future applicants should expect the admit card approximately 7–10 days before the exam.

Details Printed on the SRCC GBO Admit Card

  • Candidate’s full name and application number
  • Exam date, reporting time, and complete test centre address
  • Roll number assigned to the candidate
  • Candidate’s photograph and signature
  • Instructions for exam day conduct and permissible items

What to Carry to the SRCC GBO Exam Centre

  • A printed copy of the admit card (on white A4 paper, clear print)
  • One valid government-issued photo ID (Aadhaar card, Voter ID, Passport, or Driving Licence)
  • No physical stationery is needed — the exam is computer-based and the centre provides rough sheets and a pen
  • You may not carry electronic devices, bags, or calculators into the exam hall (an on-screen calculator is available in the test interface)

SRCC GBO 2026 Exam Pattern

The SRCC GBO entrance test is a Computer-Based Test (CBT) consisting of 100 multiple-choice questions across four sections, with a total duration of 2 hours. Each section has a fixed time of 30 minutes — once that timer runs out, you move to the next section automatically. You cannot carry over unused time from one section to another.

Section-wise SRCC GBO Exam Pattern

Section Questions Marks per Question Section Total Time (mins)
English Comprehension & Language Ability 25 4 100 30
Quantitative Ability 25 4 100 30
Logical Ability 25 4 100 30
Data Interpretation 25 4 100 30
Total 100 400 120

Key Features of the SRCC GBO Exam

  • Question Type: Multiple Choice Questions (MCQs) — each question has four options with one correct answer
  • Marking Scheme: +4 marks for every correct answer; -1 mark for every incorrect answer; no mark deducted for unattempted questions
  • Sectional Time Lock: 30 minutes per section with automatic transition — strategic time allocation within each section is critical
  • On-Screen Calculator: Available for the Quantitative Ability and Data Interpretation sections
  • Language: English only
  • No Sectional Cutoff: Only the total score (out of 400) is used for shortlisting — there is no minimum per-section requirement

With a -1 penalty per wrong answer, guessing randomly is counterproductive. If you attempt 80 questions correctly and 20 incorrectly, your net score is 300 (80 × 4 − 20 × 1 = 300). Skip questions you are genuinely unsure about rather than guessing — an unattempted question costs you nothing, while a wrong attempt costs 1 mark.

SRCC GBO 2026 Syllabus

SRCC does not publish an official syllabus document for the GBO entrance exam. The exam tests four core aptitude areas. The topics below are based on the official exam pattern and analysis of previous years’ papers.

English Comprehension and Language Ability

  • Reading Comprehension: 2–3 long passages with questions on main idea, inference, tone, vocabulary in context, and critical argument evaluation
  • Grammar and Usage: Error detection, sentence correction, fill-in-the-blanks (prepositions, articles, conjunctions, tenses)
  • Vocabulary: Synonyms, antonyms, word usage in context, idioms and phrases, one-word substitutions
  • Para-Jumbles: Rearranging 4–6 sentences into a logically coherent paragraph
  • Critical Reasoning: Strengthen or weaken arguments, identify assumptions, draw conclusions from given statements

Quantitative Ability

  • Arithmetic: Percentages, ratio and proportion, profit and loss, simple and compound interest, time-work, time-speed-distance, mixtures and alligation
  • Algebra: Linear and quadratic equations, inequalities, functions and graphs
  • Number System: HCF and LCM, divisibility rules, factors, surds, indices, and remainders
  • Geometry and Mensuration: Properties of triangles and circles, area and perimeter, volume and surface area of 3D figures
  • Probability and Statistics: Basic probability, permutations, combinations, mean, median, and mode

Logical Ability

  • Puzzles and Arrangements: Seating arrangements (linear, circular), floor-based puzzles, scheduling puzzles
  • Syllogisms: Venn diagram-based deductive reasoning with statements and conclusions
  • Blood Relations: Family tree and kinship-based reasoning problems
  • Coding and Decoding: Letter-number coding, symbol-based patterns
  • Series Completion: Number series, letter series, odd-one-out from a group
  • Critical Reasoning: Cause-effect relationships, statement-conclusion, argument evaluation

Data Interpretation

  • Bar Charts: Single and grouped bars — percentage change, ratio between groups, year-on-year comparisons
  • Line Graphs: Trend analysis for multiple variables over time periods
  • Pie Charts: Calculating percentages, sector comparisons, finding absolute values from percentage data
  • Tables: Multi-row and multi-column data — finding totals, ranks, percentage distributions
  • Caselets: Data presented in paragraph form requiring extraction and calculation

The overall difficulty level of the SRCC GBO exam is comparable to a moderate CAT paper. With 30 minutes per section and 25 questions to attempt, accuracy and time management are more important than raw speed.

SRCC GBO 2026 Result and Scorecard

The SRCC GBO 2026 result was declared on April 10, 2026 on the official website srccgbo.edu.in.

What the SRCC GBO Scorecard Shows

  • Candidate name, roll number, and application number
  • Section-wise scores (English, Quantitative, Logical, DI — each out of 100)
  • Total score out of 400
  • Percentile rank — showing where you stand among all test-takers in your cycle

Based on the scorecard, SRCC shortlisted candidates who met the category-wise cutoff scores (see next section) and invited them for the GD and PI rounds held from May 5–9, 2026. Call letters for the GD/PI were sent by email to shortlisted candidates — candidates were divided into two slots per the official schedule notice.

SRCC GBO 2026 Cutoff

The SRCC GBO cutoff is the minimum score a candidate must obtain in the written entrance test to be shortlisted for the GD and PI rounds. There is no sectional cutoff — only the total score out of 400 determines whether you qualify for the next stage. After GD/PI, a composite final score (written 75% + GD 10% + PI 15%) determines the merit list.

SRCC GBO 2026 Shortlisting Cutoff (Written Test)

Category Cutoff Score (out of 400) Approximate Percentile
General (Unreserved) 270+ ~93rd percentile
EWS 245+ ~91st percentile
OBC-NCL 215+ ~82nd percentile
SC 180+ ~54th percentile
ST 115+
PwD 100+

SRCC GBO Year-wise Cutoff Trend (All Categories)

The written test cutoff for SRCC GBO shifts every year based on paper difficulty and the number of applicants. Here is a look at the shortlisting cutoffs over the past five cycles — the fluctuations show why targeting a score well above the minimum is safer than just aiming for the cutoff.

Category 2026 2025 2024 2023 2022
General (UR) 270 270 280 209 325
EWS 245 245 250 200 300
OBC-NCL 215 200 200 178 280
SC 180 155 160 147 222
ST 115 115 120 103 135
PwD 100 90 100 54 107

The sharp drop in 2023 across all categories was due to a noticeably difficult paper. In 2022, the cutoff was unusually high (325 for General), suggesting a comparatively easy paper that year. For General category aspirants preparing for SRCC GBO 2027, a target score of 290+ out of 400 significantly improves the chances of converting the GD and PI rounds into a final admission offer — candidates scoring 295+ typically have an 80–90% GD/PI conversion rate.

SRCC GBO 2026 Selection Process: GD and PI

Candidates who clear the written test shortlisting cutoff are invited for the Group Discussion (GD) and Personal Interview (PI) rounds at SRCC, New Delhi. These two stages together contribute 25% of the final composite score. For the 2026-28 batch, GD and PI were held from May 5 to 9, 2026, at the SRCC campus.

Final Selection Score Breakdown

Selection Stage Weightage in Final Score
Written Entrance Test 75%
Group Discussion (GD) 10%
Personal Interview (PI) 15%
Total 100%

Group Discussion (GD)

The GD at SRCC GBO typically involves a panel of 8–10 candidates discussing a topic related to business, economics, international trade, or current affairs. The discussion usually lasts 15–20 minutes. Evaluators look for the quality and relevance of your arguments, how well you listen and engage with other participants, your communication clarity, and your ability to steer or add substance to the discussion. Topics in recent years have included themes like globalisation, India’s trade policy, WTO reforms, and sustainability in business.

Personal Interview (PI)

The PI panel at SRCC typically consists of faculty members and visiting industry professionals. Questions cover your academic background (why commerce or your specific graduation discipline), your motivation for choosing the PGDGBO programme, your knowledge of international business and trade, current economic affairs, and your career goals. The interview generally lasts 15–20 minutes. Being well-read about India’s export-import policy, bilateral trade agreements, global supply chain issues, and recent financial news gives you a clear advantage.

GD/PI Conversion Rate

Data from coaching analysis shows that General category candidates scoring 295 or more in the written test typically have an 80–90% rate of converting the GD/PI into a final merit list placement. The GD/PI is less about elimination and more about confirming communication skills and domain awareness — so if your written test score is strong, focus your GD/PI preparation on international business topics and structured articulation of your views.

SRCC GBO 2026 Merit List and Admission Process

SRCC prepares the final merit list by combining the written test score (75 weightage), GD score (10%), and PI score (15%). Candidates are ranked separately within each category — General, OBC, SC, EWS, ST, PwD — based on this composite score, and seats are filled in category order. Where overall composite scores are tied, SRCC uses the written test score as the tiebreaker.

Steps After Your Name Appears in the Merit List

  1. Check the Merit List PDF: Download the merit list from srccgbo.edu.in or srcc.edu. It lists your name, application number, category, and provisional selection status.
  2. Pay the First-Semester Fee: Transfer ₹82,000 online within the deadline stated in the merit list notice — typically 3 to 5 working days from the list date. Missing this deadline forfeits your seat, which is then offered to the next candidate on the waiting list.
  3. Report for Document Verification: Visit the SRCC campus with the following original documents and self-attested photocopies:
    • Graduation degree certificate or provisional degree certificate
    • All semester/year marksheets of the qualifying degree
    • Class 10 and Class 12 marksheets and certificates
    • Category certificate (OBC-NCL/SC/ST/EWS/PwD), if applicable — must be in the prescribed central government format
    • Valid government-issued photo ID
    • Passport-size photographs (6–8 copies)
  4. Complete Admission Formalities: Fill the enrolment form, submit documents, and collect your admission confirmation letter from the SRCC admissions office.

Admission Cancellation Policy

If you cancel your admission before the session starts, SRCC deducts only ₹1,000 as a processing charge and refunds the remaining fee. Cancellations made after the session begins but before July 31 attract a proportionate deduction based on the number of days attended. Cancellations after July 31 are subject to the full-term fee deduction.

SRCC GBO 2026 Fees and Seat Intake

The SRCC GBO 2026 programme fee is ₹82,000 per semester, totalling ₹3,28,000 for the full two-year course (four semesters). This is significantly lower than most private MBA programmes, which is one of the reasons SRCC GBO attracts high competition despite being a diploma and not a degree programme.

Complete Fee Structure

Fee Component Amount
Fee per Semester ₹82,000
Total Programme Fee (4 Semesters) ₹3,28,000
Application Fee — General / OBC / EWS / Foreign National ₹2,500 (non-refundable)
Application Fee — SC / ST / PwD / CW ₹1,500 (non-refundable)
Admission Cancellation Processing Charge ₹1,000 (deducted; balance refunded)

SRCC GBO 2026-28 Seat Matrix

Category Seats Type
General (Unreserved) 31 Regular
OBC-NCL 21 Regular
SC 12 Regular
EWS 8 Regular
ST 6 Regular
PwD (Persons with Disability) 4 Supernumerary
Foreign National 3+ Supernumerary
Total ~94

With 31 General category seats and thousands of applicants who clear the minimum eligibility, the effective competition ratio for the open category is very high. You should aim for a written test score comfortably above the shortlisting cutoff — a score of 280+ ensures you enter the GD/PI pool with a competitive buffer.

How to Prepare for SRCC GBO

Preparing for SRCC GBO requires a structured, section-wise approach since each section has a fixed 30-minute window. With 25 questions in 30 minutes, you get about 72 seconds per question — accuracy and selective skipping matter more than raw speed. Here are section-wise tips and recommended books for SRCC GBO preparation:

English Comprehension and Language Ability

  • Read 2–3 quality articles daily from The Hindu, The Economic Times, or Business Standard — this builds reading speed, vocabulary, and awareness of global business issues simultaneously
  • Practice 3–4 reading comprehension passages every day; focus on identifying the main idea and the author’s tone within the first read
  • For grammar, revise subject-verb agreement, tense consistency, and punctuation rules — these are the most frequent error types in SRCC GBO English questions
  • Recommended Books: Word Power Made Easy by Norman Lewis; High School English Grammar and Composition by Wren & Martin

Quantitative Ability

  • Start with arithmetic — percentages, ratio and proportion, profit-loss, and time-speed-distance are the most frequently tested topics in SRCC GBO QA
  • Practice mental maths for quick percentage calculations — this directly helps your Data Interpretation section speed as well
  • For geometry, focus on properties of triangles, circles, and basic mensuration formulas (area, volume)
  • Recommended Books: Quantitative Aptitude for Competitive Examinations by R.S. Aggarwal; Quantitative Aptitude Quantum CAT by Sarvesh K. Verma

Logical Ability

  • Puzzles and seating arrangements are the most common question type — practice at least 5–6 puzzle sets daily in the final 4–6 weeks of preparation
  • Syllogisms and blood relations are straightforward if you practice the standard patterns regularly; aim for 100% accuracy on these
  • Recommended Books: A Modern Approach to Logical Reasoning by R.S. Aggarwal; Logical Reasoning and Data Interpretation for CAT by Nishit K. Sinha

Data Interpretation

  • Practice DI sets from all five formats — bar charts, line graphs, pie charts, tables, and caselets — since SRCC GBO typically tests all of them in a single sitting
  • Get comfortable using the on-screen calculator during mock tests so the tool feels natural during the actual exam
  • Focus on percentage change, ratio, and average-based DI questions as these appear most frequently

Overall Strategy

  • Take at least 10–12 full mock tests before the exam — simulate the 30-minute sectional timer strictly
  • Within each section, follow this sequence: easy questions (under 45 seconds) first, then moderate, leave the toughest for the last 5 minutes
  • For GD and PI preparation, follow international business and trade news — know India’s major FTAs, export sectors, and recent trade policy changes
  • Solve at least 3–4 previous year SRCC GBO papers — the question style and difficulty level are consistent from year to year
