That gap explains why so many CAT takers put IIT management schools on their lists. Cheap fees don&#8217;t make every IIT MBA a good fit, though. Outcomes vary a lot between campuses, and some programs are restricted to certain degree backgrounds.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This guide covers which IITs offer MBA programs, who is eligible, how admission works for the 2027 batch, and what the latest placement data says.

The degree is awarded by the IIT. Entry is competitive, and most programs have small batches of roughly 60\u2013140 students.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">IIT MBAs usually lean towards technology management, analytics, operations and product roles. These programmes also draw on IIT engineering faculty and alumni networks. However, they are not &#8220;engineering degrees&#8221;; they are full MBA programmes that combine the IIT brand with a technology-friendly outlook.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Which IITs offer MBA programs?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The established <strong>IIT management schools<\/strong> are IIT Delhi, IIT Bombay, IIT Kharagpur, IIT Madras, IIT Roorkee, IIT Kanpur, IIT (ISM) Dhanbad and IIT Jodhpur. The table combines the latest figures I could verify. Fees are approximate, change between batches, and differ by stream, so confirm them on each institute&#8217;s site.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-table\"><table class=\"has-fixed-layout\"><thead><tr><th>IIT (School)<\/th><th>NIRF 2025 Management rank<\/th><th>Approx. seats<\/th><th>Approx. total tuition<\/th><\/tr><\/thead><tbody><tr><td>IIT Delhi (DMS)<\/td><td>4<\/td><td>115 MBA + 30 MBA Telecom<\/td><td>\u20b99.4\u201312.9 lakh<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>IIT Kharagpur (VGSoM)<\/td><td>12<\/td><td>~140<\/td><td>~\u20b910\u201313 lakh<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>IIT Madras (DoMS)<\/td><td>13<\/td><td>~68<\/td><td>~\u20b98\u20138.5 lakh<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>IIT Bombay (SJMSoM)<\/td><td>14<\/td><td>~115\u2013126<\/td><td>~\u20b915.55 lakh (2026\u201328)<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>IIT Roorkee (DoMS)<\/td><td>22<\/td><td>~95<\/td><td>~\u20b98\u20139 lakh<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>IIT Kanpur (DoMS)<\/td><td>27<\/td><td>Check brochure<\/td><td>~\u20b95 lakh<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>IIT (ISM) Dhanbad<\/td><td>48<\/td><td>~62<\/td><td>~\u20b93.4 lakh<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>IIT Jodhpur<\/td><td>Not in the list I verified<\/td><td>~80<\/td><td>~\u20b98\u20138.8 lakh<\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Newer or specialised options also exist. IIT Mandi runs an MBA in Data Science and AI, IIT Guwahati runs a CAT-based MBA, and IIT Patna runs an integrated BBA\u2013MBA. Some IITs offer executive MBAs through a separate application route. These have different eligibility and selection rules, so read each brochure.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">IIT Delhi (DMS)<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">IIT Delhi&#8217;s Department of Management Studies is the highest-ranked IIT in NIRF 2025&#8217;s management category. It offers an MBA and an MBA in Telecom Systems Management. It is generally strong in consulting, finance and technology hiring.

Mehta School of Management has the strongest reported package among IIT B-schools. It has a Mumbai location, strong analytics and product-management hiring, and a mix of banking, consulting and tech recruiters.

IIT Madras&#8217;s department site is <a href=\"https:\/\/dms.iitm.ac.in\"><mark style=\"background-color:rgba(0, 0, 0, 0)\" class=\"has-inline-color has-vivid-cyan-blue-color\">dms.iitm.ac.in<\/mark><\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">IIT Dhanbad and IIT Jodhpur<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">These offer the lowest fees. Their placement averages are lower too, so they fit candidates who value a low-cost path. Always check the latest report.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Eligibility for an MBA in IITs<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Rules differ slightly by IIT, but the common pattern is:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>A bachelor&#8217;s degree with about <strong>60% aggregate<\/strong> (or around 6.0\u20136.5 CGPA out of 10).

IIT Delhi&#8217;s MBA-Telecom needs an engineering or related background.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Work experience<\/strong> is not mandatory for most full-time MBAs, but it earns extra weightage in some selection formulas.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong><em>Also Read: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.catmock.com\/blog\/iim-vs-iit-which-is-better\/\"><mark style=\"background-color:rgba(0, 0, 0, 0)\" class=\"has-inline-color has-vivid-cyan-blue-color\">IIM vs IIT: Which Is Better for MBA in 2026?<\/mark><\/a><\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Admission process and timeline for the 2027 batch<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Admission is a three-part process:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Take CAT.<\/strong> CAT 2026 is on 29 November 2026.

It ignores two years of lost salary, living costs and tax. It also uses averages, and individual outcomes vary by specialisation and prior experience.

Cutoffs change every year.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>What is the total fee of an MBA from IITs?<\/strong><br>Roughly \u20b93.4 lakh at IIT Dhanbad to about \u20b915.55 lakh at IIT Bombay for 2026\u201328.
