IMU CET Cutoff 2026: The Indian Maritime University (IMU) conducts the IMU CET 2026 exam every year. The exam body IMU CET releases the IMU CET 2026 cut-off after the results are declared. It does the counselling for admission to all six its campuses. This is a centralised common counselling process. There are around three counselling rounds, and after each round, the IMU CET allotment list is released, which contains the IMU CET cutoff in the form of IMU CET opening and closing ranks. On this page, we have provided IMU CET opening and closing ranks for all three rounds. Also, the IMU CET cutoff is available for all six campuses and courses offered by them. IMU CET 2026 cutoff will be available after IMU CET 2026 counselling, until then, candidates can check below the IMU CET cutoff from the previous year. Note that IMU CET cutoff is available only for the six IMU campuses. Other colleges that accept IMU courses do not participate in any centralised counselling process, thus their cutoff list or the opening and closing ranks are not available. Candidates need to visit the official website of the respective college to apply for admission via IMU CET ranks.
