Yes you are eligible to apply for MBA but with your marks it is not possible for you to apply for all the MBA Entrance Exams which opens up a candidate's chances of pursuing this degree from the top colleges in India. The options are certainly limited in that respect.

But that does not means all is lost as yet. You can still sit for the top MBA Entrance Exams like MAT or IIFT and look to do your MBA from the top colleges which accepts MAT scores. You should therefore start preparing beforehand in order to score well in these examinations.

MAT Details:-

All India Management Aptitude Testing Service (AIMATS) conducts MAT or Management Aptitude Test and this is like a National Entrance Test and very popular among MBA aspirants.

This exam is conducted for four times every year- ebruary, May, September and December. MAT is a paper-based as well as computer-based test. This year's September's exam registration process is already over and the exam is going to take place in the first week of September.

For this exam you just need to have a degree from a reputed college or university. The marks one has obtained is not much of an issue here since pass marks is all you need to sit for this exam.

Weightage should be given to the following subjects for the written exam:-

1. Language Comprehension
2. Mathematical Skills
3. Data Analysis and Sufficiency
4. Intelligence and Critical Reasoning
5. Indian and Global Environment

IIFT Details:-

IIFT stands for Indian Institute of Foreign Trade. They have got their campus in Delhi and Kolkata. They conducts their own written examination for those students who are interested to do MBA from their institute. It is quite a reputed college which offers good placement and faculty members to guide you and assist you in every way.

For giving the IIFT exam as well you just need to possess a bachelor's degree whose duration should not be less than three years. This exam can also be given by the final year students.

Mainly MCQ type questions are asked and for the written exam stress should be given on the following areas:-

1. English Comprehension
2. General Knowledge & Awareness
3. Logical Reasoning
4. Quantitative Analysis

Hope this helps :-> :->

Of course you are eligible for the Master of Business Administration. However you are not eligible for all the entrance exams conducted for this course. Which means that you can not apply in every single college out there in India.

MBA is 2 years post graduation course offered in various specialization. To get admission for MBA you have to clear a entrance exam. There are several entrance exams in the country which includes:-


CAT

MAT

GMAT

XAT

JMET

SNAP

IIFT

TANCET

KMAT

RMAT


The first choice of candidates is Common Admission Test so that they can get admission in Indian Institutes of Management. But unfortunately, in your case, it is not possible.

You can not appear for the Common Admission Test because you do not have sufficient enough marks in graduation. You must have 50 percent marks in graduation to apply for the Common Admission Test.

You are falling short by a very small margin but enough to deny you to appear for the Common Admission Test. While there is marks relaxation for SC and ST, no such relaxation is offered to OBC.

Therefore you should instead consider appearing for other entrance exams like Management Aptitude Test that does not have any marks criteria.

you are eligible for maximum of these exams except CAT because the minimum marks needed for being eligible for cat is 50 % , relaxation is only allowed to sc/st students , general and obc have no relaxation,

you just missed the chance for cat with less than 1 %, tough luck,

so try to crack mat even then you can get a good college,
