BIMTECH and SRCC Management Programs See Final Push on Last Application Day

Today, January 31, 2026, marks the final opportunity for management aspirants to apply for the PGDM and GBO programs at BIMTECH and SRCC. With application portals closing at midnight, a massive surge in registrations has been observed as candidates rush to secure their spots in these premier Delhi-NCR institutions for the 2026-28 session. The management admission season for top-tier specialized programs reaches a fever pitch today, January 31, 2026, as both BIMTECH Noida and SRCC Delhi close their application windows. This "Last Day" push has seen thousands of aspirants finalizing their forms for the PGDM and Global Business Operations (GBO) programs. For many, these institutes represent the best alternative to the IIMs, offering high ROI and specialized industry exposure in fields like International Business and Insurance Management.

The Birla Institute of Management Technology (BIMTECH) has extended its deadline specifically to accommodate candidates receiving their CMAT and XAT scores. The institute offers four distinct PGDM tracks, all of which are AICTE-approved and recognized as MBA equivalents. As of today, candidates must ensure their payment of the INR 2,250 application fee is successful to be considered for the February interview rounds.

• Flagship PGDM: Highly sought after for its general management curriculum.
• Specialized Tracks: International Business (IB), Insurance Business (IBM), and Retail Management (RM).
• Selection Criteria: A mix of entrance scores, personal interview, and extempore performance.

SRCC GBO 2026 Entrance Registration

Similarly, the Shri Ram College of Commerce (SRCC) is concluding the registration for its Post Graduate Diploma in Global Business Operations. Unlike other institutes that rely on national exams, SRCC conducts its own entrance test, which is scheduled for late February. The GBO program is famous for its affordable fee structure and prestigious "SRCC" brand name, making today’s Application Deadline one of the most monitored dates in the management calendar.

• Ensure all academic documents are uploaded in the correct format before the midnight cutoff.
• Double-check category certificates (OBC/EWS/SC/ST) as per the latest 2026 guidelines.
• Prepare for the entrance exam focusing on English, Quant, and Logical Reasoning.

Strategic Importance of the Jan 31 Deadline

Missing today's deadline means aspirants will have to wait another year or look for lower-tier colleges. Many candidates use BIMTECH and SRCC as "Safety" or "Target" colleges due to their consistent placement records. Experts at MBA Universe suggest that the number of applicants this year has increased by 15% compared to 2025, indicating a highly competitive selection ratio for the 2026-28 batch.

• Complete the online submission at least 3 hours before midnight to avoid server lag.
• Save a PDF copy of the confirmation page and the payment receipt.
• Keep an eye on your registered email for interview slot invitations starting next week.

Conclusion

The conclusion of the application window for BIMTECH and SRCC on January 31, 2026, officially brings the first major phase of the 2026 admission season to a close. As the focus shifts from registration to preparation for interviews and entrance tests, candidates must remain organized.
