The Common Management Admission Test (CMAT) is conducted by the NTA for admission to MBA programs in various institutes in India. The CMAT 2027 result is likely to be released by the 3rd week of February 2027. The scorecard will be available for download from the official website at https://cmat.nta.nic.in/. After the CMAT result is declared, institutes release cutoff scores to allow eligible candidates to proceed to the subsequent selection process, which mainly includes WAT, GD, and Personal Interview.

The CMAT cutoff for institutes like JBMIMS Mumbai, SIMSREE, and Goa Institute of Management is expected to be above the 99th percentile. Although 99+ percentile is the safe score for top-ranked MBA colleges accepting CMAT, scoring 95+ marks can also help you get into decent B-schools such as XISS Ranchi and IPE Hyderabad.
