IIM Nagpur RTI Data Reveals Minimum CAT Percentile Required for Admission (2019–2026): Category-Wise & Year-Wise Analysis
Introduction: Why RTI Data Is the Gold Standard for IIM Nagpur Aspirants
Every year, lakhs of MBA aspirants spend thousands of rupees on coaching classes and online resources trying to figure out one critical question: "What CAT percentile do I actually need to get into IIM Nagpur?" Coaching institutes offer guesses. Social media forums offer opinions. But only one source offers legally verified, factual answers — the Right to Information (RTI) Act, 2005.
Under the RTI Act, any citizen of India can file an application with a public authority requesting specific information. Indian Institutes of Management (IIMs), being government-funded institutions, fall under the ambit of this law and are bound by it. When an RTI application is filed, the institution must respond within 30 days with accurate, official data. This is not estimated data. It is not projected data. It is the exact, institution-certified figures that were used in actual admissions decisions.
The difference between coaching institute cutoff guesses and RTI data is enormous. A coaching institute might tell you that IIM Nagpur's General category cutoff is "around 90–92 percentile." RTI data from actual admissions reveals nuanced batch-specific figures based on real composite score calculations. Importantly, there is a crucial difference between the qualifying cutoff (minimum percentile to receive a shortlist call) and the actual admission percentile (the minimum CAT percentile of a candidate who received a final offer). This article covers RTI-based data from 2019–20 to 2025–26, a six-year horizon that gives you the most comprehensive, data-driven picture available anywhere.
IIM Nagpur was established in 2015 under IIM Ahmedabad as its mentor institution. It is one of the "New IIMs" and has grown rapidly — now NIRF-ranked #25 (2025) among management institutes in India. Beginning from the 2024–26 batch, IIM Nagpur joined the IIM Common Admission Process (CAP), a significant structural change that affects how aspirants should approach its admission process.

The RTI (Right to Information) Act, 2005 is a landmark legislation that empowers Indian citizens to seek information from public authorities. IIMs, as centrally funded public institutions, are legally obligated to respond to RTI requests within 30 days. Failure to respond or providing false information carries penalties under the Act.
RTI data for IIM admissions is typically filed by MBA aspirants, researchers, and education bloggers. The questions commonly asked include: category-wise minimum CAT percentile for interview shortlisting, composite score cutoffs for final admission offers, number of candidates shortlisted and offered admission, waitlist movement data, and class composition by category and gender.
| Limitation | Explanation |
|---|---|
| Time lag | RTI data for a batch becomes available months after admission cycle closes. Aspirants must reference it for future planning, not current-year admissions. |
| Minimum, not average | RTI reveals minimum scores and percentiles. The average admitted candidate typically had a significantly higher profile. |
| No sectional breakdowns always | Some RTI responses provide only overall percentile; sectional data is not always disclosed. |
| No guarantee of repeatability | A 90-percentile candidate admitted in one year due to a unique profile may not get in the next year. |
| IIM Nagpur does not publish RTI PDF | Unlike some IIMs, IIM Nagpur does not publish its RTI responses in PDF form on its official website. Data is available through third-party RTI applicants. |
IIM Nagpur uses a three-stage admission process. Understanding this framework is essential to correctly interpret RTI cutoff data.
Stage 1: CAT Qualifying Cutoff (Eligibility Gate) — The minimum CAT percentile required to receive an email invitation from IIM Nagpur. Only candidates who cleared CAT's sectional and overall thresholds AND selected IIM Nagpur in their CAT application form are invited. Meeting this threshold does not guarantee an interview call.
Stage 2: Shortlisting Score (SS) Calculation — For all eligible candidates, a Shortlisting Score is calculated based on CAT performance and gender diversity. Only top-ranked candidates are invited for Personal Interview (PI) and Extempore rounds.
Stage 3: Final Composite Score (CS) for Admission Offer — After the PI round, a Final Composite Score is computed integrating CAT score, PI performance, academic profile, work experience, and gender/academic diversity. Admission offers are made based on this composite score within each category.
| Component | Weightage (%) | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| CAT Score | 45% | Increased from 40% in previous year; single largest component |
| Personal Interview (PI) + Extempore | 25% | Includes both Extempore and structured PI performance |
| Academic Diversity (Past Academic Performance) | 6% | 10th, 12th, Graduation marks |
| Work Experience | 9% | Rated on quality and duration at managerial/executive level |
| Gender Diversity | 5% | Female/Transgender candidates get 10 points; Male gets 0 |
| Academic Stream Diversity | 10% | Non-engineers and arts/science backgrounds get additional points |
| Total | 100% | — |
| Category | Overall Percentile | VARC (Section 1) | DILR (Section 2) | QA (Section 3) |

Key Trend Insights: The General category qualifying cutoff rose by 9 percentile points over 6 years (2020–2026), from 85 to 94, a clear indicator of intensifying competition. EWS and OBC cutoffs showed the steepest single-year jump in 2026–28, rising from ~77 to 85 — a change of 8 points in one cycle — reflecting growing competition in these categories. SC cutoff rose from 55 to 65 over 6 years while ST has remained relatively stable at 40–40.18. Zero seats remained vacant in the 2024–26 batch. CAT score weightage increased from 40% to 45% for 2026–28, making raw CAT performance more critical than ever. Academic stream diversity increasing from 5% to 10% has been a meaningful leveler for non-engineering candidates.

| Academic Stream Diversity | 5 | 5 | 10 | 10 | 10 | 10 |
| Total | 100 | 100 | 100 | 100 | 100 | 100 |
The shift from 40% to 45% CAT weightage for 2026–28 directly explains the uptick in qualifying cutoff from 94 to 95 for General candidates. The reduction in academic performance weightage from 15% (2021–23) to 6% (2026–28) means candidates with average academic profiles are less penalized, as long as their CAT score and PI performance are strong. The increase in academic stream diversity from 5% to 10% has been a meaningful leveler for non-engineering candidates — a positive structural shift for diversity.

IIM Nagpur's qualifying cutoff for General (94) is strikingly high compared to most peer New IIMs. However, its EWS, OBC, SC, and ST cutoffs remain relatively accessible, making it a strong strategic target for reserved category candidates. The unique positioning of IIM Nagpur — with a very high General cutoff but moderate reserved category cutoffs — creates a distinctive opportunity landscape that aspirants should exploit strategically.

Q1. What is the minimum CAT percentile for IIM Nagpur in 2026? As per the released admission policy for the 2026–28 batch, the minimum qualifying CAT percentile is 95 for General, 85 for EWS and NC-OBC, 65 for SC, and 40 for ST and PWD. Meeting this cutoff only makes you eligible for the next stage — actual admission requires a much stronger profile.
Q2. Can I get into IIM Nagpur with 90 percentile? For General category candidates, a 90 percentile will not clear the qualifying cutoff of 94–95. For EWS or NC-OBC candidates, a 90 percentile is above the qualifying threshold of 77–85 and can lead to a shortlist call if backed by a strong academic profile and work experience.
Q3. Which IIM has the lowest cutoff? Among all IIMs, Baby IIMs like IIM Jammu, IIM Sirmaur, and IIM Bodh Gaya have the lowest qualifying cutoffs — often around 87–90 for General and as low as 32–40 for ST/PWD categories. Among New IIMs, IIM Trichy and IIM Shillong have relatively lower cutoffs than IIM Nagpur.
Q4. Is RTI data accurate for IIM admissions? Yes. RTI data is legally verified and comes directly from the institution under penalty provisions of the RTI Act, 2005. It is the most accurate publicly available data source for IIM admission statistics. However, it has a time lag — data for a given batch becomes available several months after the admission cycle closes.
Q5. Do sectional cutoffs matter more than overall percentile for IIM Nagpur? Both matter. IIM Nagpur mandates minimum sectional percentiles: 75 for VARC, 72 each for DILR and QA for General candidates. A candidate scoring 98 overall but failing to meet the 75-percentile VARC cutoff will be rejected at Stage 1. Sectional cutoffs are a hard gate that must be cleared first.
Q6. What is the composite score cutoff for IIM Nagpur General category? As per RTI data for the 2024–26 batch, the minimum composite score for General category was 4.03469. This is the score below which no General candidate received a final admission offer.
Q7. Does work experience help in IIM Nagpur admissions? Yes. Work experience carries 9% weight in the final composite score for the 2026–28 batch. Candidates with 37–60 months of managerial-level work experience receive maximum points. Freshers receive 0 work experience points, which must be compensated through stronger CAT scores, PI performance, or diversity bonuses.
Q8. Is IIM Nagpur part of CAP 2026? IIM Nagpur joined CAP starting with the 2024–26 batch. As per the 2026–28 admission policy, IIM Nagpur appears to be running its own separate admission process. Final confirmation should always be verified from iimnagpur.ac.in.
Q9. How many seats are available at IIM Nagpur? The 2025–27 batch size is approximately 280 students. The seat distribution follows government reservation policy: General ~27.5%, EWS ~10%, OBC ~27%, SC ~15%, ST ~7.5%, with remaining seats for PWD candidates within each category.
Q10. What is the gender diversity advantage at IIM Nagpur? Female and transgender candidates receive 10 points in the gender diversity component, while male candidates receive 0. The 5% weight of gender diversity means a female candidate starts with a non-trivial advantage in the composite score ranking.
Q11. What are the waitlist movement trends at IIM Nagpur? Historically, IIM Nagpur has shown significant waitlist movement, particularly in OBC and SC categories. For the 2022–24 batch, the OBC waitlist moved by 200+ positions before the final list was issued. Movement varies each year depending on buffer calls given and competing institutes' merit lists.
Q12. Can a non-engineer get into IIM Nagpur easily? Non-engineers benefit from the 10% academic stream diversity component — up to 10 bonus points that engineers do not receive. Combined with gender diversity (if female), a non-engineer female can potentially receive a call with a CAT percentile several points lower than the General male engineering benchmark.
Q13. What happens if I don't submit the IIM Nagpur application form after clearing the cutoff? Clearing the qualifying CAT cutoff alone is not sufficient. Candidates must also fill the IIM Nagpur application form by the specified deadline. Failure to do so disqualifies the candidate from Stage 2 processing, regardless of CAT score.
Q14. How is IIM Nagpur's NIRF ranking relevant for aspirants? NIRF Rank #25 (2025) places IIM Nagpur solidly in the mid-tier IIM bracket, above several New and Baby IIMs but below the old IIMs (A, B, C, L, K, I). Its rank improved from #29 in 2023 to #25 in 2025, correlating directly with rising cutoffs and improving placements.
Q15. Is the minimum percentile disclosed in RTI the same as the cutoff on the official website? No. The official website publishes the qualifying/eligibility cutoff — the minimum to receive an interview call. RTI data reveals the actual minimum percentile of candidates who received final admission offers, which is always higher than the qualifying cutoff. Aspirants must understand this distinction to avoid targeting incorrectly.

| Highest CTC | ~Rs. 40 LPA | ~Rs. 45 LPA |
| Profile Type | CAT Target | Key Advantage | Strategic Note |
|---|---|---|---|
| General Male Engineer (Fresher) | 97+ | None | Highest competition bracket. A 95 qualifying score is not enough — need 97+ for strong shortlist probability and excellent PI to convert. |
| General Male Engineer (3+ yrs WE) | 95+ | Work Experience (+9 pts) | With 3+ years of quality managerial experience, a 95–96 percentile can be competitive. Work experience bonus is substantial. |
| General Female Engineer | 94+ | Gender Diversity (+10 pts) | Gender diversity bonus makes this profile competitive from 94+ percentile. Clear the 95 qualifying threshold to be safe. |
