For reference, the JIPMAT 2026 application window opened on April 16, 2026, and the examination was conducted on June 7, 2026. The 2027 schedule may differ, so candidates should not rely on these dates as a prediction of the next cycle.
Visit the official NTA JIPMAT website regularly for application announcements, admit card updates and other notices.
Candidates should check the JIPMAT 2027 eligibility criteria before submitting an application. The main requirements concern the qualifying examination, eligible passing years, minimum marks and any additional conditions specified by the participating institutes.
Candidates should have passed or be appearing for Class 12 or an equivalent qualifying examination, as permitted by the official rules for the relevant admission cycle.
The JIPMAT 2026 Information Bulletin covered candidates who had passed Class 12 or an equivalent examination in 2024 or 2025, as well as candidates appearing in 2026. These passing years applied to the 2026 cycle and do not confirm eligibility for JIPMAT 2027.
For reference, the JIPMAT 2026 eligibility guidelines specified the following minimum percentages:
| Category | Minimum percentage in Class 10 and Class 12 for the 2026 cycle |
| General | 60% |
| NC-OBC | 60% |
| EWS | 60% |
| SC | 55% |
| ST | 55% |
| PwD/PwBD | 55% |
These figures must be checked against the official JIPMAT 2027 notification before candidates use them to determine their eligibility.
Candidates should follow their education board's rules for calculating aggregate marks. The JIPMAT 2026 bulletin stated that the board's prescribed method should be followed. Where the board did not specify a method, aggregate marks across all subjects in the grade sheet were to be considered.
Candidates should also check the official instructions for any CGPA conversion, rounding-off or document-verification requirements.
The minimum Class 10 completion year, if specified, should be checked in the JIPMAT 2027 Information Bulletin. Do not assume that a previous-cycle date-of-completion rule will remain unchanged.
IIM Jammu and IIM Bodh Gaya may publish additional eligibility or admission conditions. Candidates should review the admission criteria of both institutes before applying.
