IPMAT Cutoff 2025, 2024, 2023 (Available): Check Category-Wise Cut off Marks for IIM Indore

No the IPMAT cutoff for IIM INdore and IIM Rohtak are not the same. Both the IIMs conduct different IPMAT exams. IIM Indore conducts IPMAT Indore and the exam conducted by IIM Rohtak is called the IPMAT Rohtak exam. Thus, both the institues have different cutoff and selection processes. Various factors such as number of applicants, difficulty level, number of seats available for the programme and overall performance of the candidates affect different cutoffs. 

No, meeting the IPMAT cutoff alone does not guarantee the admission to the IPM programme. Students can qualify for the next stage of the selection process if they match the cutoff and then perform well in Personal Interview and academic performance. Candidates who do well in the personal interview as well as the IPMAT exam may have their name in the merit list released by IIM Indore.

Every student who clears the IPMAT cutoff will get a call from the participating institutions, but will not be guaranteed admission. If they do not match the academic eligibility or IPMAT score they will not be given admission to the IPM programme. IIM Indore checks factors such as IPMAT score, number of seats, academic performance, GD/PI performance for admissions to IPM programme. Candidates with a good composite score stand a chance to get shortlisted for the PI round. 

Even if the candidate clears the sectional and overall cutoff in IPMAT exam but does not get shortlisted for the PI round, it means that the candidate is eligible but not among the top-ranked candidates based on the composite score. Such a candidate will not be considered for admission to the IPM programme.

Such candidates can opt for reappearing for the exam next year, as there is no provision of re-evaluation. Candidates can also consider applying to other institutes which accept IPMAT Indore scores, such as NIRMA University, TAPMI, etc.
