IIT Bombay Cutoff Overview
IIT Bombay cutoff means the opening and closing JEE Advanced rank of each programme in a JoSAA round. The closing rank is the rank of the last candidate who got a seat. A lower rank number is a better rank. JoSAA 2026 had five rounds. All figures here are from Round 5, the last round, unless the text names another year. The IIT Bombay cutoff 2026 tables below start with the Open category.

Is It Hard to Get into IIT Bombay?
Yes. The IIT Bombay JEE Advanced cut off for 16 programmes ranges from 67 in CSE to 7,838 in B.S. Chemistry for Open gender-neutral seats. You need a JEE Advanced rank, which needs a place in the top 2,50,000 of JEE Main. The branch you choose decides how high your rank must be. Check the IIT Bombay previous year cutoff of your branch, too.
What Is the IIT Bombay Cutoff for JEE Main?
IIT Bombay sets no JEE Main cutoff for the B.Tech, and IIT Bombay cutoff marks do not exist for it either. JEE Main only decides if you can sit JEE Advanced, and the IIT Bombay admission page explains that step. The IIT Bombay JEE Advanced cut off is the closing rank in the tables below.
What Is the IIT Bombay Cutoff for Class 12 Marks?
The IIT Bombay admission cut off for Class 12 is 75% marks, or 65% for SC, ST and PwD candidates. You can also qualify with a place in your board's top 20 percentile. This IIT Bombay admission cutoff applies to JEE Advanced 2026 candidates, and the rank tables apply on top of it.
