Should you pick MBA at IIM Udaipur?
This course suits students who want a general management job in banking, consulting or marketing and can pay a big fee.
Pick it if:
You want a banking or finance job: banking and finance took the most offers in the 2025 batch, and Accenture and Bank of America recruit here.
You have work experience and a strong profile: CAT carries 55% of the final score here, and the interview and your profile carry the rest.
You want to pay the fee in parts: the fee is taken trimester by trimester across six trimesters, so it is never due in one go.
You care about how fast the fee comes back: the average pay of INR 17.58 LPA covers about four fifths of the full fee.
Skip it if:
You want a large and old alumni base: this is only the 15th two-year MBA batch, so the alumni network is young and small.
You want a big city with walk-in internships: Udaipur is a small city, so most internships and jobs come through the placement office.
You are paying the whole fee yourself: the full fee of INR 22.51 Lakhs is more than the average first year pay of INR 17.58 LPA.
You want one shortlist to work for many colleges: IIM Udaipur left the common admission process, so its call is made on its own list.
Counsellor's advice
If your CAT percentile clears the shortlist and you want a banking or consulting job, take this seat. If you are paying alone, ask about the need based tuition waiver before you pay the offer acceptance fee.

Will your CAT score get you a call from IIM Udaipur?
Pick your category. These cutoff ranges use the CAT percentiles that IIM Udaipur shortlisted on for the 2026-28 batch.
Category
General
94 percentile and above: you clear the shortlist cutoff for General.
90 to 93.9 percentile: just under the cutoff, so a call needs the cutoff to fall.
Below 90 percentile: not this year for General.
NC-OBC
81 percentile and above: you clear the shortlist cutoff for NC-OBC.
77 to 80.9 percentile: just under the cutoff, so a call needs the cutoff to fall.
Below 77 percentile: not this year for NC-OBC.
EWS
81 percentile and above: you clear the shortlist cutoff for EWS.
77 to 80.9 percentile: just under the cutoff, so a call needs the cutoff to fall.
Below 77 percentile: not this year for EWS.
SC
66 percentile and above: you clear the shortlist cutoff for SC.
62 to 65.9 percentile: just under the cutoff, so a call needs the cutoff to fall.
Below 62 percentile: not this year for SC.

38 to 41.9 percentile: just under the cutoff, so a call needs the cutoff to fall.
Below 38 percentile: not this year for ST.
EDITOR'S NOTE
The 94 percentile is only the shortlist cutoff, not the final call. The interview and your profile carry 45% of the final score, so a high percentile alone does not get you the seat.
