FAQs
Ques. What is the minimum MHT CET cutoff for OBC candidates in MHT CET 2026?
Ans. To be eligible for the CAP, OBC candidates must score at least 40% –-80 out of 200 marks in the MHT CET. However, this only grants eligibility; actual admission to ICT Mumbai requires a much higher percentile, typically 95+.
Ques. Can I get into ICT Mumbai with a 90th percentile as an OBC candidate?
Ans. According to historical data and Reddit discussions, a 90th percentile is not sufficient for core branches like Chemical Engineering or B.Pharm. You may have a slim chance in branches like Fibres & Textiles Processing Technology or Dyestuff Technology during the Spot Round in ICT.
