No, not for the BM or HRM. The lowest total bar in XAT 2026 is 84, for HRM non-engineer female and third gender candidates. An 80 percentile falls below every XLRI Jamshedpur cutoff for the two main programmes. Your score may still suit the PGDM (GM), which XLRI shortlists on profile.
Can I Get Into XLRI Jamshedpur with a 95 Percentile?
A 95 percentile clears the XAT 2026 total bar for every group, including the male BM bar of 94. You must also clear the sectional bars, such as 85 in QADI and 82 in VALR and DM for male BM candidates. In XAT 2025 the male BM bar was 96, so a 95 would have missed it.

The XLRI Jamshedpur cutoff for the Delhi-NCR campus is the same BM bar, since the BM selection covers both campuses. The HRM is offered only at Jamshedpur. XLRI's XAT FAQ says that choosing the PGDM (BM) means you are considered for both campuses at no extra fee.

Not by itself. XLRI lists a bar for the total and for each section, so check all four against your scorecard. Treat the XLRI Jamshedpur cutoff as four bars to clear, not one. A candidate with 95 overall but 80 in QADI misses the male BM bar of 85 in QADI.
