Curious about the CAT 2024 cut-offs for the top IIMs and MBA colleges? Don’t miss out on the CAT Cut Off Scores 2024 – your roadmap to unlocking admission to the best institutions!

‍

Key Factors Influencing the TISSNET Cutoff Marks

The TISSNET cut off marks are influenced by various factors that significantly determine the minimum qualifying score required for admission to different programs at the Tata Institute of Social Sciences. 

Here are the key factors that impact the TISSNET cutoff for all courses.

1. Difficulty Level of the Exam

The difficulty of the TISSNET exam can greatly affect the cut-off marks. If the exam is perceived as tougher, the cut-offs may be lower as fewer candidates score higher marks. 

2. Number of Candidates Appearing for the Exam

More applicants lead to increased competition, often resulting in higher cut-off marks for popular programs. In contrast, if the number of candidates is lower, the cut-offs may be more forgiving.

3. Total Number of Seats Available

The number of available seats in each program determines the number of candidates who can be admitted. Fewer seats in a program can increase the cut-off as more students compete for limited spots. 

‍

Steps to Check TISSNET Cutoff 2026

‍

‍

The TISSNET cutoff marks determine whether you qualify for the next stages of the admission process, such as the Personal Interview (PI) and Group Discussion (GD) rounds.

Title: Regulatory & Policy Reference Disclaimer

The education loan rules, disclosures, borrower rights, and regulatory references mentioned on this page are derived from publicly available guidelines, circulars, and notifications issued by the Reserve Bank of India (RBI), along with applicable lending regulations governing Non-Banking Financial Companies (NBFCs).

Propelld primarily disburses education loans through its wholly-owned RBI-registered NBFC, Edgro, and partners with other regulated NBFCs for select offerings, and provides education loans in accordance with prevailing RBI norms and internal credit policies. However, final loan terms—including interest rates, sanctioned amounts, eligibility assessment, collateral or co-applicant requirements, moratorium structure, repayment schedules, and approval outcomes—are determined based on:

  • The applicant’s financial profile and credit assessment
  • Course, institution, and loan structure
  • Internal underwriting policies of Propelld
  • Applicable regulatory requirements in force at the time of sanction

Any regulatory explanations, interpretations, or summaries provided on this page are indicative and simplified for general understanding. They should not be treated as a substitute for official RBI notifications, lender-issued sanction letters, or legally binding policy documents.

RBI guidelines and lending regulations are subject to change from time to time. Readers are advised to:

  • Refer to the latest RBI circulars and official publications
  • Review Propelld’s sanction letter, loan agreement, and policy disclosures
  • Seek independent professional advice where clarification is required
