Eligibility Criteria
IIM Raipur’s 2026–28 MBA policy requires graduation marks of 60% for GEN/EWS/NC-OBC, 50% for SC, 45% for ST and 45% for PwD. Admission uses JAP 2026 for common registration and PI, followed by IIM Raipur’s own category-wise merit list.
What applicants should verify before submitting the form

Admission Process: Step-by-Step
Candidates first receive the JAP invitation after CAT 2025, register on the JAP portal, and participate in the common PI process. After PI, IIM Raipur prepares its own merit list. The graduation minimum must be satisfied before final admission.

Cutoff & Selection Criteria
The published graduation minimum is a hard eligibility condition. CAT shortlisting is handled through JAP. A safe conversion percentile cannot be stated as an official number unless IIM Raipur/JAP publishes it.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is the main admission route for IIM Raipur?
What is the minimum eligibility for the flagship management programme?
Is the published cutoff a guaranteed admission percentile?
No. A screening threshold only establishes eligibility for consideration. Final conversion depends on the institute’s complete selection methodology and competition.
How should I calculate the actual cost of the programme?
Add every mandatory academic and residential charge, then add mess/boarding, insurance, deposits and other recurring charges listed by the institute. Do not treat refundable deposits as permanent academic fees.
Which placement number should I use when comparing colleges?
Prefer median CTC where available, then average CTC and role/sector distribution. Highest CTC should be treated as an exceptional outcome rather than the expected salary.
