IIFT does not publish a fixed merit-list cutoff score, since final admission also depends on Group Discussion and Personal Interview performance following CAT-based shortlisting. The general eligibility threshold is a Bachelor's degree with at least 50% marks (45% for SC/ST/PwD). Candidates should treat any specific 'cutoff percentile' figures found on third-party portals as indicative only and confirm current-cycle shortlisting parameters directly with IIFT admissions.
