Eligibility for MBA is a bachelor's degree in any discipline from a statutory university with a minimum of 50% aggregate marks (45% for reserved categories). For BBA, admission similarly runs through DTE Maharashtra's CAP for the relevant academic year, requiring a 10+2 pass in any stream with the minimum aggregate marks specified for that cycle, with institute-level admission available against any seats left vacant after CAP rounds — the institute's own current site specifically lists a BBA admission link for the 2026-27 academic year on this basis.
For the Ph.D. in Management, eligibility is a Master's degree in Management or a relevant allied field with at least 60% aggregate marks, along with a valid UGC-NET/SET score or the institute's own research entrance test, followed by an interview with the doctoral committee. Interview schedules for Ph.D. admission are published separately by the institute each academic year.
MAH-MBA/MMS-CET registration has historically opened around mid-January with the exam typically conducted in March, followed by result declaration and CAP counselling rounds running through April; candidates should check DTE Maharashtra's official portal each year for the current cycle's exact dates, since these shift annually.
Required documents at the verification stage typically include Class 10 and Class 12 mark sheets, the graduation degree certificate and mark sheets, the entrance exam scorecard, category and domicile certificates where applicable, and identity proof. Because CAP admission happens in multiple rounds with a narrow window between each round's result declaration and the next round's document-submission deadline, candidates are advised to keep all required documents ready and scanned well in advance of the CAP registration opening, rather than assembling them after seeing their allotment.
Full eligibility criteria and the CAP process are detailed on the admission process page.
