The IBSAT 2025 cutoff will be made available on ICFAI Business School's official website. All candidates who are found eligible and meet the cutoff would be called for Micro Presentation and Personal Interview rounds. IBS also declares separate cutoffs for candidates applying through CAT, XAT, NMAT by GMAC or GMAT scores.
If you clear the cut-off percentile of IBSAT you have to participate in the selection rounds. Only some candidates go for the counselling and further to the final merit list after the Micro Presentation and PI rounds. Your performance in Micro Presentation and PI as well as your IBSAT score will be the only factors used to make the final decision.

FAQs
There is no single overall cutoff for all the campuses of IBS. Each has its cutoff percentile. For example, Hyderabad usually needs around 75 to 80 percentile while others may need slightly lower or higher scores.
IBS does not issue separate category-wise cutoffs. All candidates fall in the same cutoff range.
There are no sectional cutoffs. However individual section performance may be looked at by some campuses while preparing the merit list.
The cutoff is decided after the results are declared. IBS looks at the number of students who took the exam, the difficulty level and the total seats available. The cutoff marks are then posted on the official website.
IBS also takes into consideration your Micro Presentation, Personal Interview, academic record and sometimes work experience for admission. These factors determine the final admission decision.
The cutoff will be declared after the results of IBSAT 2025 will be published on the website.
Meeting the cutoff guarantees only a call for the selection briefing and the next rounds. It does not assure final admission because your performance in the Micro Presentation, PI and academics is also evaluated.
You can compare your percentile with the expected campus wise cutoff ranges or go through the official cutoff list published on the IBS website once it is out.
