What is IPMAT Result 2026?

IPMAT stands for Integrated Program in Management Aptitude Test. It is conducted by IIM Indore (for its own campus) and separately by IIM Rohtak, and it is the gateway exam for the five-year Integrated Programme in Management (IPM). The IPMAT Result 2026 tells you two things: whether you cleared the qualifying cutoffs, and whether you’ve been shortlisted for the Personal Interview (PI) — the second and final stage before admission. For IIM Indore, the final merit list is prepared based on a composite of your aptitude test score and PI performance; Class 12 marks carry no weight.

The two institutions run independent processes. Clearing the IPMAT Indore cutoff does not help your case at IIM Rohtak, and vice versa. Each result applies only to the institution that conducted the test.

IPMAT Result Previous Year Statistics

IPMAT is one of the most competitive undergraduate management entrance exams in India. IIM Indore consistently shortlists around 800–840 candidates for PI every year — but with only 150 domestic seats on offer, the final admission rate works out to well under 1% of all candidates who sit for the test. The table below tracks year-wise participation and PI shortlisting for IIM Indore across five cycles.

Year Approx. Applications (Indore) Positive Scorers (All Sections) PI Shortlisted (IIM Indore) Result Date
2026 50,000+ (Indore + Rohtak combined) 17,916 838 25 May 2026
2025 30,220 ~16,357 818 May 2025
2024 ~25,000 ~20,748 824 May 2024
2023 ~24,865 ~9,300+ ~820 May 2023
2022 ~30,000 ~18,000 ~800 May 2022

The IIM Indore PI shortlist has stayed remarkably stable — between 800 and 840 candidates — across five cycles, even as application numbers have fluctuated. IIM Indore controls the shortlist based on its seat intake, not the total candidate pool. In practical terms, that means rising competition but a fixed number of PI opportunities.

The table below shows how the General category qualifying benchmark for IIM Indore has shifted over recent years. From 2022–2025, the institute used an overall score cutoff. In 2026, it switched to sectional cutoffs, so a direct comparison with earlier overall-score thresholds is approximate.

Year General Category Qualifying Benchmark (IIM Indore) Format
2022 ~175 / 360 Overall score cutoff
2023 ~176 / 360 Overall score cutoff
2024 ~172 / 360 Overall score cutoff
2025 ~164 / 360 Overall score cutoff
2026 QA MCQ ≥ 27 | QA SA ≥ 28 | VA ≥ 111 Sectional cutoffs (format change)

The slight dip in the 2025 qualifying score and IIM Indore’s 2026 shift to sectional cutoffs suggest the institute is refining its selection to reward balanced candidates — those who perform consistently across all three tested skills, not just their strongest subject.

  5. Download the scorecard PDF and keep it safe

Ques. I forgot my IPMAT portal password. How do I recover it?

Ans. Use the "Forgot Password" option on the login page of the relevant official portal. You’ll need your registered email ID or mobile number to reset it. If the reset option doesn’t work, contact the admissions helpdesk of the respective institute directly — email addresses and helpline numbers are listed on the official websites.

Ques. Can I check the IPMAT Result 2026 without logging in?

Ans. No. Both IIM Indore and IIM Rohtak require you to log in with your application number and password. There is no public result link and you can only view your own scorecard — not anyone else’s.

IPMAT 2026 Scorecard Details

Your IPMAT 2026 scorecard is the official document confirming your result. Keep a downloaded copy — you’ll need it at the PI stage and again during final admission. Here is what the IIM Indore scorecard contains:

  • Candidate name and application number
  • Category (General / EWS / NC-OBC / SC / ST / PwD)
  • Section-wise marks: Quantitative Ability (MCQ), Quantitative Ability (Short Answer), and Verbal Ability
  • Overall Aptitude Test Score
  • PI shortlist status — "Shortlisted for Personal Interview" or "Not Shortlisted"

If you spot any error in your name, category, or score, report it to the IIM Indore admissions office right away. Discrepancies can take time to resolve, and the PI call letter process begins quickly after the result.

The IIM Rohtak scorecard shows your overall score, category, and shortlist status. It does not display section-wise breakdowns in the same format since Rohtak uses an overall cutoff and not sectional minimums.

Important: Neither IIM Indore nor IIM Rohtak offers a re-checking or re-evaluation facility after the result. The answer-key objection window — which closed before the final key was published — was the only opportunity to dispute a scoring decision.

IPMAT 2026 Qualifying Marks and Cutoff

IIM Indore and IIM Rohtak use completely different cutoff structures. This distinction matters — a strong overall score won’t save you at IIM Indore if even one section falls below its minimum.

IIM Indore — Sectional Cutoffs 2026

IIM Indore sets a separate minimum for each of the three sections. You must cross all three simultaneously to qualify for the PI shortlist. Falling short in any one section — even by a single mark — disqualifies you, regardless of how well you did in the other two.

Category Quantitative Ability — Short Answer (QA SA) Quantitative Ability — MCQ (QA MCQ) Verbal Ability (VA)
General 28 27 111
EWS 16 17 79
NC-OBC / SC / ST / PwD To be officially published by IIM Indore

IIM Rohtak — Overall Cutoff 2026

IIM Rohtak sets a single overall score as the qualifying bar — there are no sectional minimums. Your total score across all sections determines your eligibility. A very high score in your stronger sections can make up for a relatively weaker one, unlike at IIM Indore.

  • 453 candidates from the General category were shortlisted for PI at IIM Rohtak in 2026
  • Category-wise cutoffs at IIM Rohtak are lower for reserved categories; all are based on the overall score alone

The core practical difference: IIM Indore demands balanced performance across all three sections. IIM Rohtak rewards aggregate strength. If you are very strong in QA but moderate in VA, IIM Rohtak’s format may suit your profile better.

Ques. I scored above the sectional cutoffs but was still not shortlisted at IIM Indore. Why?

Ans. Clearing the sectional cutoffs is a necessary condition — not a sufficient one. IIM Indore shortlists a fixed number of candidates (838 in 2026). If you cleared the cutoffs but weren’t shortlisted, it means higher-scoring candidates in your category filled all available PI slots. The cutoff is the floor; the actual competition happens above it for the limited number of PI spots.

IPMAT 2026 PI Shortlist

Clearing the cutoff earns you a place on the PI shortlist — not an admission offer. The Personal Interview is the second stage, and your final merit rank depends on the combined score of your aptitude test and PI performance. With 838 shortlisted candidates and 150 domestic seats at IIM Indore, competition at the PI stage remains intense.

IIM Indore PI Shortlist 2026

838 candidates were shortlisted from the 17,916 who scored positive marks across all three sections — roughly 4.7% of positive scorers, and a far smaller fraction of everyone who sat for the exam. The category-wise seat distribution for IIM Indore’s IPM 2026 batch is as follows:

Category IPM Seats — IIM Indore 2026
General 61
NC-OBC 41
SC 23
EWS 14
ST 11
PwD (horizontal reservation) ~5% across categories
Total Domestic Seats 150

IIM Rohtak PI Shortlist 2026

IIM Rohtak shortlisted 453 candidates from the General category for its PI round based on overall IPMAT Rohtak score. Reserved category candidates are shortlisted at lower overall score thresholds set category-wise. The IIM Rohtak final selection list is expected around July–August 2026.

Ques. Is the IPMAT PI shortlist for IIM Indore and IIM Rohtak linked?

Ans. No. They are entirely separate. IPMAT Indore and the IIM Rohtak aptitude test are conducted independently by two different institutions. Being shortlisted at IIM Indore has no bearing on your eligibility at IIM Rohtak, and vice versa. You applied to each separately, and each result is evaluated independently.

Ques. What is the IPMAT Indore PI format?

Ans. The IIM Indore PI is a one-on-one interview lasting 15–30 minutes, conducted online. There is no Group Discussion (GD) or Written Ability Test (WAT) round. Topics typically cover general awareness, current affairs, academic background, hobbies, and your motivation for the IPM programme. Shortlisted candidates receive a PI call letter with the specific date, time slot, and login details well in advance.

What After IPMAT Result 2026?

If you are on the PI shortlist, your IPMAT 2026 journey has one more step. If you are not shortlisted, this year’s cycle ends here — but the path forward is worth knowing.

If you are shortlisted — next steps for IIM Indore:

  • Personal Interview (PI): Conducted in the third week of July 2026, online. Shortlisted candidates received PI call letters with specific dates, login links, and document requirements. The PI is a 15–30 minute one-on-one interview — no GD or WAT round at IIM Indore.
  • Final Merit List: Expected in the first week of August 2026. IIM Indore publishes the merit list based on a composite of aptitude test score and PI performance. Class 12 marks carry no weight. Candidates are ranked separately within each category.
  • Admission Offer: Candidates on the final merit list receive an admission offer. Once you accept and complete the fee payment, your seat is secured for the five-year IPM programme starting in the 2026–31 academic session.

For IIM Rohtak shortlisted candidates:

  • PI rounds were held in June–July 2026. IIM Rohtak’s final selection list is expected around July–August 2026, after which admission offers are extended.
  • The IIM Rohtak final selection is also based on the aptitude test score and PI performance — check the official notification on admission.iimrohtak.ac.in for the precise weightage.

If you are not shortlisted:

Your 2026 IPMAT cycle is over. You can attempt IPMAT again next year, provided you still meet the age and Class 12 eligibility criteria — there is no cap on the number of attempts. Other IIM IPM programmes that accept JIPMAT scores have their own separate admission processes and may still be accessible if you are within the eligibility window.

Ans. For the General category at IIM Indore, you needed at least 28 in Quantitative Ability (Short Answer), 27 in Quantitative Ability (MCQ), and 111 in Verbal Ability.

Ques. Does Class 12 score affect IPMAT Indore admission?

Ans. No. IIM Indore does not include Class 12 marks in the final IPM merit calculation. Your rank depends entirely on your aptitude test score and PI performance. You do need to have cleared the Class 12 eligibility criteria at the time of application — typically 60% for General / EWS / OBC candidates and 55% for SC / ST / PwD — but those are basic eligibility bars, not selection criteria.

Ans. No. IIM Indore does not offer re-checking or re-evaluation of IPMAT scores. The answer-key objection window — which closed before the final key was published on 21 May 2026 — was the only channel to dispute a scoring decision. Once the final result is declared, the scores are final.

Ques. What is the difference between IPMAT and JIPMAT?

Ans. IPMAT is conducted by IIM Indore and IIM Rohtak for their respective five-year IPM programmes. JIPMAT (Joint Integrated Programme in Management Admission Test) is a separate exam — conducted by NTA — for admission to the IPM programmes at IIM Jammu, IIM Bodh Gaya, and IIM Ranchi. The two exams are independent; scores are not interchangeable between them.
