This admission cycle targets students aspiring for a management career. IIT Delhi’s Department of Management Studies offers this rigorous two-year program.

IIT Delhi will shortlist candidates for interviews based on their CAT 2025 scores, making the exam score a critical component of the application process.
Eligibility Criteria
Applicants must meet specific academic requirements for MBA admission. General category candidates, including Economically Weaker Section (EWS) and Other Backward Classes (OBC), need at least 60% aggregate marks in their bachelor’s degree. This is equivalent to a minimum 6.0 CGPA on a 10-point scale. This percentage or CGPA reflects overall performance across all semesters of their undergraduate studies.
Reserved category applicants from Scheduled Caste (SC), Scheduled Tribe (ST), and Persons with Disability (PwD) categories have relaxed criteria. They require a minimum of 55% aggregate marks or an equivalent CGPA of 5.50 in their undergraduate degree. This ensures broader access to the program for eligible candidates.
Students currently in the final year of their bachelor’s degree or equivalent qualification examination can also apply. Those who have completed their degree requirements and are awaiting final results are also eligible. However, their admission would be provisional, pending successful completion of their degree with the required marks.
