  • As per the official information the minimum requirement to study MBA you should have at-least AVG 60% of marks ,( atleast 55 % in open category 50% in reserved category )
  • Sorry to inform you that you are not qualified for MBA courses , even your CAT score is really high there is no chance of admission with less than 50% marks in graduation  you can repeat the graduation course or improve your score if option available and try for MBA so that you can get into some reputed colleges so that you get job easily.
  • Still if you want to continue to join some colleges that takes students for MBA even with less marks please go through the website of the colleges to confirm their credibility and value of certificate they provide

while checking I found this site

  • https://www.directadmissionmba.in/below-50-in-graduation/
  • http://www.directadmissionmbacolleges.in/tag/direct-admission-in-mba-colleges-accepting-below-50-graduation

Kindly go through the site of these colleges to ensure the credibility and decide , if to join or not

Hope this information helped you

best wishes for your future

Hi Fateh,

The usual eligibility criteria to appear for any MBA entrance exam (CAT, XAT, NMAT, CMAT, etc.) is minimum 50% marks in graduation. However, you can apply for MAT (Management Aptitude Test) for admission to more than 600 B-schools across the country. As per the MAT eligibility criteria, you need to be graduate in any discipline to apply for MAT exam. MAT scores are accepted by many renowned B-schools in the country including IBM Kolkata, KIIT University, MIT School of Business, Jaipuria Lucknow & Noida, etc. 

The MAT exam is conducted four times a year - February, May, September, and December. You can choose to appear for MAT September or December exam as per your convenience. The next MAT 2018 exam is on September 15 (online mode). The last to register is September 8. Know more about the exam here - MAT Exam Pattern & Dates

All the best.
