This is a student-first RTI reference page for IIM Bodh Gaya MBA. It combines the current official MBA admission policy for 2026–28, the published 2026 EOI cutoff PDF, the official 2024–26 admission summary, and your uploaded MBA 2023–25 RTI reply.

How to read this page correctly
The strongest way to use this page is policy first, then RTI evidence, then waitlist/result portals. Where a public summary or RTI does not actually expose a breakdown, this page does not invent it.
Use this for the present cycle
The 2026–28 MBA admission policy gives the official merit formula, profile scoring rules and CAP reference cutoffs.
Use this for actual 2026 invite thresholds
The January 2026 EOI PDF is especially useful because it shows actual GN and SNG invite cutoffs for MBA.
Official public data source
The 2024–26 RTI reply largely points to the official admission summary PDF, which gives applicants, PI shortlists, final cutoff, final admissions and the waitlist portal.
Useful older benchmark
The uploaded 2023–25 RTI reply directly gives applicants, shortlists, accepted offers, final cutoff scores, no-deferment status, and the waitlist movement link.
