IBSAT 2025 Concludes Today with Second Day of Online Examination

The ICFAI Business School Aptitude Test (IBSAT) 2025 officially concludes today, following a smooth two-day window of home-proctored examinations. As the digital shutters go down on the testing phase, the focus for aspirants immediately shifts to the performance evaluation and the subsequent admission milestones.

• Result Declaration: The official results are expected to be announced in the first week of January 2026.
• Scorecard Access: Candidates can download their scorecards from the official portal using their application number and password.
• Selection Briefings: Following the results, selection briefings will be conducted across 70+ cities to guide qualified candidates.

Expected Cutoffs and Campus Selection

Shortlisted candidates will be invited for the final selection rounds based on their IBSAT scores or valid CAT, NMAT, or XAT percentiles. Each of the nine ICFAI Business School campuses maintains its own merit threshold.

• Campus Diversity: While IBS Hyderabad remains the flagship campus, cities like Mumbai and Bengaluru are highly sought after for their corporate connectivity.
• Alternative Scores: Candidates who missed the IBSAT but have strong CAT or NMAT scores are still eligible for the selection process.
• Merit Scholarships: Top performers may qualify for scholarships worth up to ₹2 Lakh based on their final ranking.

Preparing for the Final Selection Rounds

Success in the entrance exam is only the first hurdle. The final merit list heavily weights performance in the upcoming Micro Presentation (MP) and Personal Interview (PI) sessions scheduled for February 2026 at IBS Hyderabad.

• Micro Presentation: You will have 1 minute to prepare and 3 minutes to present on a randomized topic to test your spontaneous thinking.
• Personal Interview: Panels will evaluate your communication skills, business aptitude, and clarity of career goals.
• Weightage Balance: Past academic records (Class 10, 12, and Graduation) contribute significantly to the 100-point final selection criteria.
