I have completed my mba from smu in finance and banking. Now I want 2 do phd in management but in my mba I got 54.76 %

Am I eligible by phd or is there an6 university who give admission below 55%?

If you are a General category candidate then you must have at least 55% marks in your MBA to become eligible for Ph.D admission. For reserved category candidates there is relaxation of 5% marks for Ph.D admission.

Therefore, if you don't belong to reserved category then you will face difficulties in getting admission in a Ph.D program because you don't meet the minimum requirement for a Ph.D program.
