The IIM CAP 2026 admission process is conducted in two stages. In Stage I, eligible candidates must submit their EOI, which is mandatory but does not guarantee a PI call. Candidates shortlisted in Stage I proceed to Stage II, where they are required to pay the application fee and select their PI slot.
Admission decisions, merit list preparation, and final offers will be handled independently by IIM Bodh Gaya, IIM Jammu, and IIM Sirmaur. If shortlisted for multiple programmes, candidates will undergo only one PI, the score of which will be shared across participating IIMs.
