What is the IIM Nagpur MBA Shortlisting Criteria?

Shortlisting for the MBA 2026–28 batch is based on multiple parameters, including:

• CAT percentile score
• Class 10, Class 12, and graduation academic performance
• Relevant work experience, where applicable
• Gender diversity consideration

Based on previous admission cycles, the expected CAT cutoff is around 90 percentile for General category, with lower cutoffs for reserved categories.

It is important to note that IIM Nagpur does not participate in the Common Admission Process (CAP) conducted for several new IIMs. The institute follows an independent shortlisting and interview process, and its PI calls are separate from CAP-based selections.

Candidates who successfully submit the PI form will be required to appear for:

• Written Ability Test (WAT)
• Personal Interview (PI)

The final merit list will be prepared based on CAT score, academic profile, work experience, diversity factors, and performance in WAT and PI.
