However, DIMR also accepts CAT, CMAT, XAT, MAT, ATMA, and GMAT scores for institute-level (Against CAP) admissions. If you have a valid score in any of these exams and meet the eligibility criteria (50% in graduation), you can apply directly to DIMR during the Against CAP admission window, which typically opens in September after the CAP rounds are completed.

Under the SPPU 2024 NEP-aligned MBA curriculum, Finance specialisation students study core subjects such as Financial Accounting, Managerial Economics, and Corporate Finance in the first year, along with generic management subjects. In the second year, Finance major subjects include Investment Management, Financial Derivatives, Banking and Insurance Management, Corporate Governance, and Risk Management. The programme also includes a mandatory Summer Internship Programme (SIP) after Semester II, which gives students hands-on exposure to the Finance industry. The curriculum is designed to align with industry requirements and prepares students for roles in corporate finance, investment banking, and financial services.

Ans. DIMR has an approved intake of 180 seats for the MBA programme across all specialisations. In AY 2025-26, a total of 188 students were admitted (including reserved category seats). The admission is primarily through the MAH-MBA/MMS CET CAP process, and the institute has historically admitted students with a relatively accessible CET score range, making it a viable option for students who may not have very high percentile scores. The aggregate CET score for admitted students in 2025-26 was around 37.72%, indicating that the institute is accessible to a wide range of students. However, competition for the Finance specialisation specifically may vary based on the number of applicants opting for it.
