    • a valid CAT score equal to or above the cut-offs as given in Table 1.
    • applied for the program and satisfy the eligibility criteria for the program.

    Overall CAT score out of 20 and application rating (AR) out of 20 will be added to get the marks for shortlisting candidates to be called for WAT-PI.
