Candidates can apply for XLRI Delhi's Business Management programme on the official website by selecting the course and campus option while filling the XAT application form which is released in the first week of August every year. If they do not mention XLRI Delhi has their preferred exam in the XAT application form, they will not be eligible for admission to the institute. Candidates must remember that there is no separate application form for XLRI PGDM programmes, so they need to make the selection of institute in the XAT application form only.

Q:   How important is XAT cut off for selection to XLRI's PI round?

A:

XAT cut off is the most important factor in selection of candidates for XLRI Jamshedpur’s Personal Interview or PI round. Those who do not meet the cut off are not even taken into consideration for PI shortlisting. The two main parameters upon which candidates are short listed for the PI round are academic scores (class 10,12 and graduation) and XAT cut off.

Aspirants must note that they need to score as much or above the XAT cut off and should have a consistent academic record of high score to have greater chances of getting selected. It is not necessary that they will be called for the PI round if their XAT score matches the cut off. If any candidate with the same score has a better academic record, he/she will be selected over the other.

How To Calculate XAT Score?

XAT score of each candidate is calculated on the basis of raw scores obtained by them on every question that they attempt. There will be no marks normalisation as XAT is conducted in single session. To understand the XAT scoring process, first let’s look at the XAT marking scheme:

XAT Marking Scheme 2025

Right answer

+1 mark

Wrong answer

-0.25 marks

Unanswered questions

0 marks

8 consecutive unanswered questions

-0.10 marks

What is the XAT Score Calculation Process?

  • For XAT score calculation, marks obtained in all the three sections (Verbal Ability, Decision Making & Quantitative Aptitude) are added
  • GK score is not included in XAT score and percentile calculation
  • Qualifying candidates are then ranked according to total marks scored in XAT exam
  • Each candidate’s rank is divided by the remaining number of test takers and then multiplied by 100 to arrive at the XAT percentile score

Let’s understand XAT percentile calculation with an example:

Suppose 80,000 students took the XAT test and a candidate's rank is 500. Therefore that candidate's XAT percentile will be:

79,500/80,000x100=99.375

What After XAT Result 2025?

After the declaration of XAT 2025 result, XLRI will announce cut off percentile for admission to its Business Management (BM), Human Resource Management (HRM) and General Management Programme (GMP) courses. Candidates who will meet the XAT cut off 2025 will be eligible for Personal Interview (PI) and Essay Writing rounds. Candidates will have to fill a form on institute's website indicating their interest in the PI round. Shortlisted candidates will be then informed about the PI schedule and process through email. Final selection for admission will be based on the candidate’s overall performance in XAT 2025, PI, academics, work experience, etc.

Candidates having a good work experience at executive or managerial level stand a good chance of getting selected for XLRI's MBA programmes. The XAT cut offs 2025 will be different for XLRI MBA BM and MBA HRM. Also, the XAT cut offs will be lower for students from non-Engineering background than students from engineering background. 

The other MBA colleges accepting XAT score for admission will conduct their selection process individually. They will also conduct PI alongwith group discussion or written ability test. Candidates who wish to apply to colleges other than XLRI, will have to apply individually to preferred colleges.
