• The degree obtained from a foreign University subject to producing the equivalency certificate from AIU (Association of Indian Universities) or any Government of India approved assessment agency, or an Indian University approved by UGC along with the proof of aggregate percentage of marks obtained in the programme completed.

3 Years of managerial/entrepreneurial/professional experience** after successful completion of graduation as on the deadline of submitting the application online.

• Bachelor’s degree awarded by any of the Universities incorporated by an act of the central or state legislature in India or other educational institutions established by an act of Parliament or declared to be deemed as a University under Section 3 of the UGC Act, 1956 (Click here for the list of universities) or possess an equivalent qualification recognised by the Ministry of HRD, Government of India. The percentage of marks obtained by the candidate in the bachelor’s degree would be calculated based on the practice followed by the university/institution from which the candidate has obtained the degree. In case the candidates are awarded grades/CGPA instead of marks, the conversion of grades/CGPA to percentage of marks would be based on the procedure certified by the university/institution from where they have obtained the bachelor’s degree. In case the university/institution does not have any scheme for converting CGPA into equivalent marks, the equivalence would be established by dividing the candidate’s CGPA by the maximum possible CGPA and multiplying the result with 100.
• Work experience before completion of graduation will not be considered for eligibility. An experience certificate issued by the current employer dated after the online application submission date is necessary in the case of candidates who have exactly 3 years work experience while applying for the programme. In the case of candidates with more than 3 years of work experience while applying for the programme, the latest experience certificate along with other experience certificates justifying the 3 years will be sufficient. The date of issue of the provisional certificate/original degree certificate/convocation date (whichever is earlier) will be considered as the date of graduation to calculate the work experience after the graduation
