How to Use CSAB 2025 Cutoffs for 2026 Planning
CSAB cutoffs change every year based on: number of candidates registered, JoSAA outcomes, and demand for specific institutes. However, the year-on-year variation is typically small (5–15%).
How to Estimate Your Chances for CSAB 2026
- Find the 2025 closing rank for your target institute/branch above
- Add a safety buffer of 10–20% higher rank number (e.g., if 2025 closing was 45,000, consider yourself safe if your rank is under 40,000)
- Check if you qualify for Home State quota (significantly better cutoffs for HS candidates at NE NITs)
- For GFTIs, cutoffs are generally very relaxed — even ranks above 1,00,000 may get seats in many GFTIs
