The wait for IIM Mumbai Result is almost over for lakhs of CAT 2025 applicants. The IIM Mumbai Result 2026 for the final MBA admission is awaited for a long time and the institute may declare it any time soon on its official website iimmumbai.ac.in
Notably, IIM Mumbai is the last among all IIMs to disclose its final PI result this season, making it one of the most-watched announcements of the MBA admission cycle 2026–28.

This is the first time in recent years that IIM Mumbai PI results are delayed to such an extent. The institute is the last among all IIMs and top MBA colleges to declare the final admission decision for the 2026–28 batch. The official message has stated that the result is imminent, however candidates have remained on edge.

All other major IIMs including IIM Ahmedabad (April 13), IIM Bangalore , IIM Calcutta , IIM Lucknow , and IIM Indore have already announced their final results. IIM Mumbai’s Announcement will wrap up the IIM admission season 2026.

The IIMs conduct the MBA admissions process in numerous rounds. After the initial group of students selected have accepted or declined offers, empty seats are provided to waitlisted students in second and subsequent offer lists.

This year, many students have reported receiving fresh admission offers from IIM Amritsar even after the deadline for accepting the previous offer had passed. The second list is extremely crucial for many candidates who had virtually lost the hope of conversion prospects since suddenly they have been handed a tentative admission offer.

The IIM Mumbai selection process has three stages. The final merit list is generated on the basis of a composite score which is calculated on the basis of several characteristics.

Candidates who have cleared the minimum sectional and total CAT 2025 cutoffs specified by IIM Mumbai are eligible for the PI shortlist.

Category Overall CAT Percentile General 85 percentile NC-OBC ~75 percentile SC 65 percentile ST 65 percentile PwD 65 percentile
