Which MBA specialisation should you pick at IIM Kashipur?

Specialisation
Master of Business Administration [MBA] (Analytics) (MBA Analytics)
160 students in the 2024-26 batch. Exams: CAT or GMAT. Total fees INR 20.80 Lakhs.
Pick it if:
You want an analytics or data job after the MBA: business analytics and IT and analytics roles took 110 of the 433 offers students accepted in 2023-25.
You hold a GMAT score and no strong CAT score: this course takes GMAT, while the MBA here takes CAT only.
Your CAT is below 95 but your school and degree marks are high: marks carry 30 of the 80 shortlist points here, as much as CAT does.
Skip it if:
You are an engineer counting on the subject points: the 2.5 subject points go to degrees like maths, statistics, B.Com and BCA, not to B.Tech.
You have more than 36 months of work: the shortlist gives only 3 of its 11.5 work points after 36 months.
You want a light second year: the dissertation takes three terms of year 2, on top of your electives.
Master of Business Administration [MBA] (MBA)
284 students in the 2024-26 batch. Exams: CAT. Total fees INR 20.80 Lakhs.
Pick it if:
Your CAT percentile is 95 or more with 75 in every section: that is the General floor for the MBA interview call here.
You have 18 to 30 months of work experience: that range gets all 15 work marks in the MBA merit list.
You want a sales, marketing or general management job: marketing and sales roles took 90 offers and general management 86 in 2023-25, the two biggest groups.
Skip it if:
You hold only a GMAT score: the MBA takes CAT only, so a GMAT score works for MBA Analytics alone.
You have more than 36 months of work experience: the MBA merit list gives no work marks after 36 months, so the best range is 18 to 30 months.
Counsellor's advice
If your CAT clears 95 with 75 in each section, apply to both courses; the MBA call comes through CAT, and Analytics needs its own form. If it falls short, fill the Analytics form before February, since your marks count as much as CAT there.
MBA Eligibility▾
Degree marks: A bachelor's degree with 50% marks. 45% for SC, ST and PwD.
MBA Analytics marks: 47% for NC-OBC and EWS, and the degree must be full-time and at least three years long.
Exam, MBA: A valid CAT score. The General floor is 95 percentile, with 75 in each section.
Exam, MBA Analytics: A valid CAT score, or a recent GMAT score.
Final-year students: You can apply if you finish your degree before joining.
MBA Admission Process▾
Write CAT: The exam is on 29 Nov 2026. The MBA call comes from your CAT form alone.
Apply for MBA Analytics: Fill its own form on the institute portal and pay the fee of INR 1,500 (INR 750 for SC, ST and PwD).
Make the shortlist: The MBA list uses the CAT floors. Analytics uses a score out of 80 from CAT, your marks and your work.
Face the interview: The interview carries 25 marks in the MBA and 20 in Analytics. Analytics interviews are online.
Accept one offer: Offers go in merit order in each category. Pay the acceptance fee by the date on the offer, then report in July.

EDITOR'S NOTE

The institute publishes its CAT floors, not the lowest percentile that got an offer, and MBA Analytics publishes only its cut-off score. Clearing a floor gets you an interview, not a seat, so ask the admission office for last year's offer list before you plan around one number.

Placement insights
IT firms took 114 of the 433 offers students accepted, and banks and insurers 85, so IT and finance gave almost half the jobs.
The median sits only INR 0.49 LPA below the average and the lowest offer was INR 8.20 LPA, so most offers sit close together.
The median fell from INR 17.20 Lakhs for the 2021-23 batch to INR 15.03 Lakhs and then INR 14.46 Lakhs, as graduates rose from 318 to 467.
Kashipur has few company offices nearby, so jobs are elsewhere: NCR took 80 offers, Bangalore and Mumbai 68 each, and 118 had no city fixed yet.
Good to know
Summer internships last 8 to 10 weeks, from April to June, after year 1.
Final placements start around October of year 2, and jobs begin from April.
The pay figures are cost to company, checked by an outside auditor.
The report covers MBA and MBA Analytics together and gives no split by course.

In short
IIM Sirmaur costs INR 71,000 less and places nearly every graduate, but its median is INR 0.26 LPA lower and it ranks 28 places lower. If both call you, IIM Kashipur is the stronger pick on rank and batch size.

In short
IIM Bodh Gaya costs INR 2.75 Lakhs less and takes a bigger batch, but its median is INR 2.34 LPA lower. If you can pay the extra fee, IIM Kashipur has the better pay record.
In short
IIM Sambalpur costs INR 1.16 Lakhs less and its median is INR 0.57 LPA higher, but it ranks 11 places lower. If both call you, weigh that pay gap against the rank and the bigger batch here.
In short
IIM Amritsar costs INR 1.21 Lakhs less and places the same share, but its median is INR 2.17 LPA lower and it ranks 41 places lower. IIM Kashipur is the better pick if both call you.

FAQs on Indian Institute of Management Kashipur MBA

Short answers to what students ask before they apply.

Is the fee the same for MBA and MBA Analytics?▾
Yes. Both cost INR 20.80 Lakhs for two years, or INR 20.71 Lakhs without the INR 9,000 refundable deposit. The course fee is paid in six term parts.
Can I get into the MBA here with a GMAT score?▾
No. The MBA takes CAT only. A GMAT score works for MBA Analytics, which has its own form on the institute portal.
What CAT percentile do I need for the MBA interview call?▾
For General it is 95 overall with 75 in each section. The floor is 81 for EWS and NC-OBC, 66 for SC and 42 for ST and PwD. Clearing it gets you an interview, not a seat.
Does pay differ between MBA and MBA Analytics?▾
The institute publishes one audited report for both courses. The 2023-25 batch averaged INR 14.95 LPA with a median of INR 14.46 LPA, and nothing is split by course.
Which course should I apply to first?▾
Apply to both if your CAT allows it. The MBA call comes from your CAT form, and Analytics needs its own form by February. If your CAT is below 95, Analytics is the better chance, as your marks count as much as CAT there.
Does work experience help?▾
Yes. In the MBA, 18 to 30 months of work gets all 15 work marks, and more than 36 months gets none. MBA Analytics gives up to 11.5 points for work.
Can I pay the fee in parts?▾
Yes. The course fee is paid in six term parts, INR 10.86 Lakhs in year 1 and INR 9.60 Lakhs in year 2. The institute also lists banks that give education loans.
Do I get the fee back if I withdraw?▾
If you leave before orientation starts, you get the whole fee back minus INR 1,000. After orientation starts, only the caution deposit comes back. The application fee is never refunded.
