The IBSAT 2025 Test with scholarships was successfully concluded on 27 & 28 December 2025.  The test results will be declared today at 5:00 PM. The top 500 IBSAT rankers will also receive their scholarship letters along with the results.

The candidates can log in to their profiles and check the result on the IBSAT 2025 result section on the official website.

The majority of students noted that the two-hour time limit was sufficient to attempt the 140 questions, and the absence of negative marking gave them the confidence to attempt more questions. Students also appreciated the preparatory support provided by free mock tests from various sources, including the official IBS website (www.ibsindia.org), the IBS mobile app, and popular edu-portals. Overall, the test was considered manageable and of moderate difficulty, requiring critical thinking skills to come to the fore.

The eligible scores are mentioned below.

  • GMAT™ score of 500 and above
  • CAT score of 60th percentile and above
