The MBA CET 2025 round 1 provisional merit list was created using the candidates' scores and college preferences listed on the CAP form 2025. The merit list is now accessible as a PDF.

This time, two women contestants, Lakshita Jitendra Chandaliya and Shah Shashvi Sanjay, and two men contestants, Mujhaid Jugnu Khan and Mhatre Pratik Pravin, received a perfect 100 percentile.

Savitribai Phule Pune University is the favoured college among the top 100 students (around 39 out of 100) and then comes Mumbai University (~34). The remaining universities are Dr. Babasaheb Ambedkar Marathwada University, Shivaji University, Nagpur University and Swami Ramanand Teerth Marathwada University.

In the meantime, the CET Cell has notified students that candidates from reserved categories do not qualify for Economically Weaker Section (EWS) benefits. 

Some candidates from the reserved category had to produce Economically Weaker Section (EWS) certificates in order to be eligible for EWS benefits. All of these applicants are now notified that they are not eligible for EWS benefits if they belong to the reserved categories (SC, ST, OBC, VJ, NT, SEBC, SBC). All candidates are hereby advised to note the same. Such candidates are asked to modify their applications with proper adjustments and also the requisite papers for their respective reserved category within the grievance redressal time, as per an official CET Cell announcement.

Also, for non-grievance redressal period courses (e.g., medical, Ayurveda, etc.), candidates can raise a ticket and make any required changes prior to the registration date.
