What After XAT Result 2026?

After the XAT results are announced, XLRI releases the cut-off percentiles for its Business Management (BM), Human Resource Management (HRM), and General Management Programme (GMP). Candidates who meet the XAT 2026 cut-off can take part in the Personal Interview (PI) and Essay Writing rounds. 

They must fill out the PI form on the XLRI website. Based on these forms, candidates are shortlisted. The final selection is done by looking at the overall performance in XAT 2026, PI, academic record, work experience, and more.


Applicants with strong executive or managerial experience have a better chance of getting selected. The cut-offs for XLRI’s BM and HRM programs are different, and non-engineering students usually have slightly lower cut-offs than engineering students.


Other MBA colleges accepting XAT will follow their own selection process. Most will conduct a PI along with a group discussion or a written ability test. Candidates interested in these colleges must apply to them separately.

XAT cut-off for XLRI admission is the minimum score candidates need to qualify for the next selection rounds, including the interview and group discussion.
