Use CAT College PredictorThe official document used here is DMS IIT Delhi's Shortlisting and Admission Criteria for MBA & MBA (Telecom) 2026-2028. It gives minimum Shortlisting Index scores for candidates to be called for a personal interview (PI). These are index-point thresholds, not CAT percentile cutoffs and not a promise of admission. The batch and selection stage matter: do not reuse these values as the cutoff for a later intake.
The DMS criteria sheet for 2026-2028 lists these minimum Shortlisting Index scores by category:
Choose the column for the programme in your application and the category printed in the notice. The PDF calls these minimum scores for PI calls. It does not label them as CAT percentiles, final admission ranks or seat-allocation closing scores.
The index uses more than CAT. The criteria sheet assigns 65 marks to CAT and also scores bachelor’s degree marks, Class 12 marks, Class 10 marks, work experience, gender diversity and graduation from a Ministry of Education-funded technical institution, an Institute of Eminence or an Institute of National Importance. Adding the seven listed weights gives 100 marks: 65 + 5 + 5 + 5 + 7 + 8 + 5.
A CAT percentile on its own is therefore not directly comparable with the minimum index score. Applicants close to a threshold need to calculate the full index using the official scoring tables, rather than assume that a particular CAT percentile guarantees a PI call.
The cutoff is the final Shortlisting Index score, not the CAT component in isolation. The PDF describes the CAT component as the overall CAT score divided by the maximum CAT score and gives it 65 marks. The other rows add scores from school and degree results, work experience, the gender-diversity category, and the qualifying institution background. The official score tables apply their own percentage and month bands, so a candidate should use the printed boundary ranges rather than round a percentage into a neighbouring band.
For work experience, the PDF lists under 6 months = 0; 6-11 months = 1; 12-18 = 4; 19-24 = 7; 25-36 = 7; 37-48 = 4; and above 48 = 1. The score therefore does not rise with every additional month: the maximum is 7 points for the 19-36 month bands, then the listed points fall. Check the experience calculation and any qualifying date in the exact batch notice rather than extrapolating from the table.
The sheet also assigns 8 points to the row labelled “Deficit Gender” under gender diversity and 5 points to graduates from an MoE-funded technical institution, an Institute of Eminence or an Institute of National Importance. It gives no further definition beside the deficit-gender row on this page. If either item affects your index, verify the applicable interpretation in the current official instructions before counting those points.
The same PDF lists a separate MBA Full-Time Admission Index, including interview and extracurricular activities at 40 marks and CAT at 40. This is a later index, distinct from the minimum Shortlisting Index used to call candidates for PI. Meeting the shortlist threshold only clears that stated index minimum; it does not establish selection after the interview.
These cutoffs are tied to the 2026-2028 batch. They do not establish a 2027-2029 threshold. Before applying to another batch, open the latest MBA admission notice and its linked criteria on the DMS IIT Delhi admissions site and compare the batch, programme, category and stage printed there. Use a newer notice if the weights or minimum index change.
A practical comparison should use one matching record: select the MBA or MBA (Telecom) row, use the category shown in your application, calculate the Shortlisting Index from the same batch rules, and compare that total with the printed minimum. The score table reports index points to two decimal places, not a conversion from CAT percentile. Do not read a value such as 45.00 as the 45th CAT percentile or compare it with a final counselling closing rank. If you are near the displayed threshold, use the exact score inputs and current written instructions rather than rounding a third-party estimate.
