IIM Raipur Waitlist Movement 2026: Category-Wise Trends

Indian Institute of Management (IIM) Raipur is currently processing waitlist movements for its Post Graduate Programme (PGP) 2026–28 batch admissions. Candidates who received waitlist positions after the Common Admission Process (CAP) rounds are closely watching for seat conversion updates across General, SC, ST, OBC-NC, EWS, and PWD categories.

What Is Waitlist Movement at IIM Raipur?

After IIM Raipur issues its initial offer list, candidates who accept seats may later withdraw, triggering movement in the waitlist. As seats become vacant, offers are rolled out to waitlisted candidates in order of merit within each category. This process typically continues through multiple rounds until the batch is filled or a final deadline is reached.

Category-Wise Expected Waitlist Trends

While IIM Raipur has not published official final waitlist movement data for the 2026 batch at the time of writing, historical patterns and community-reported data suggest the following general trends:

• General Category: Waitlist movement has historically been moderate to high, with candidates ranked within the top 30–50 waitlist positions having a reasonable chance of conversion in active years.
• OBC-NC Category: Movement tends to be steady, often tracking close to General category pace given the reservation share.
• SC Category: Waitlist movement is comparatively slower due to lower vacancy turnover, but conversions do occur in later rounds.
• ST Category: Movement is limited and highly dependent on the number of initial acceptances.
• EWS Category: Being a relatively newer reservation category, movement data is still emerging, but conversions have been reported in recent cycles.
• PWD Category: Conversions depend on the sub-category (locomotor, visual, etc.) and available seats; aspirants should monitor official communications closely.
