Dear Ms. Nishita,

As desired by you.

Selection Procedure

Eligibility: A Bachelor's Degree of minimum 3-year duration or equivalent grade (under the 10+2+3 or 10+2+4 or 10+2+2+1 year bridge course pattern of study or any other pattern fulfilling the mandatory requirement of 15 years of formal education) in any discipline with a minimum aggregate of 50% marks (40% for Scheduled Castes [SCs] and Scheduled Tribes [STs]) from a recognized University.

Those satisfying the eligibility requirements will be assessed for selection (Total Marks = 200) through the following:
1. Objective Test (70 Marks): The Objective Test includes numerical ability, analytical ability, socio-economic awareness, business knowledge, and logical reasoning. The time allotted is 90 minutes.
2. Group Discussion (30 Marks): The Group Discussion (GD) aims at assessing knowledge about contemporary issues in the field and sensitivity to social issues expressed orally in English in a group situation. The time allotted is 25 minutes.
3. Personal Interview (75 Marks): To become eligible for the GD and Personal Interview (PI), a general candidate should secure a minimum combined score of 43 marks (35 marks for SCs and ST) in the Objective Test to be considered for the GD and PI.
4. Academic Background (25 Marks): Marks are awarded to each applicant based on the overall percentage of marks secured in the Bachelor's Degree Examination, with a maximum of 25 marks. However, high academic achievement is not the only criterion on which the candidate will be selected.

Please note that you can also refer to the website of TISS. You can also go through R.S. Agarwal's book designed for Maths and Reasoning.

Thanks and Regards,
Nishi Kant
