SIBM Noida Admission 2027: Cutoff, Fees & Placements

SIBM Noida was established in 2023 as a constituent of Symbiosis International (Deemed University), which holds a NAAC A++ grade and awards the degree. It runs a single 60-seat MBA from a campus in Sector 62, Noida, and is a separate institute from SIBM Pune, with its own registration, seats, fees and merit list; its first batch, 2023-25, has already graduated.

• Within the intake, 15% of seats are reserved for SC, 7.5% for ST and 3% for persons with disabilities.
• Above the intake, two seats go to Kashmiri migrants and Kashmiri Pandit or Hindu families living in the valley, and 25% to international students.
• The 2026-27 AICTE extension of approval for the Symbiosis Noida campus, dated 10 April 2026, approves the 60 MBA seats and records a faculty deficiency to be made good within six months.

SIBM Noida registration and payment close on 15 January 2027, three days after the SNAP result, and the batch starts on 8 June 2027. The GE-PI runs in two windows, a fortnight apart.

Admit cards for the three SNAP tests open on 7, 11 and 18 December 2026. Because SIBM Noida registration stays open until 15 January, a candidate can see the SNAP result before paying the ₹1,000 programme fee. For comparison, the 2025 intake’s calendar put the first merit list on 6 March 2025 and the start of classes on 10 June 2025.

Applying takes two payments through the SNAP website: ₹2,550 for each SNAP attempt and ₹1,000 for each SIBM Noida programme, both plus taxes. Paying only for SNAP does not put a candidate on any SIBM Noida shortlist. A candidate may sit up to three SNAP tests, and the higher score counts.

Each wrong answer costs a quarter of a mark. Shortlisting runs on the overall SNAP percentile, with a separate cut-off for each programme, and a candidate must attend every part of the Group Exercise and Personal Interaction (GE-PI) to stay eligible. No shortlisting percentile is published in advance; category-wise merit-list and wait-list cut-offs appear on the institute’s website after selection. The merit list is out of 100:

The 2026-28 batch pays ₹9,40,000 a year in academic fees, paid as four instalments of ₹4,70,000, so ₹18,80,000 over two years, plus a ₹20,000 refundable institute deposit. The 2025-27 batch paid ₹8,94,000 a year, or four instalments of ₹4,47,000. The fee is the same whichever specialisation a student takes.

• For the 2026-28 batch the instalments fall due at admission, on 25 November 2026, 25 June 2027 and 25 November 2027; for 2025-27 they fell on the same dates a year earlier.
• Discretionary-quota seats cost double the open-category academic fee for 2026-27, up from 1.5 times in 2025-26, and the rate applies for the whole programme.
• The four semester toppers in each batch receive 20%, 15%, 10% and 5% off the next semester’s academic fee, and five IIT graduates joining a Symbiosis MBA receive a 20% academic-fee waiver.

The MBA is a non-residential programme, and hostel and mess are billed separately from the academic fee. For 2026-27 an air-conditioned triple-sharing room costs ₹2,13,600 a year and mess ₹1,53,000 a year, with a ₹20,000 refundable hostel deposit; the rates apply to the Noida campus and vary by room type, with only the triple-sharing rate set out.

• The girls’ hostel on the Symbiosis Noida campus is a G+4 building with 68 triple-sharing rooms and one accessible twin room, each about 354 sq ft, centrally air-conditioned, with an attached bath, three wardrobes and a balcony.
• Hostel and mess charges can rise by up to 15% a year, and second-year rates are announced before the second year begins; government taxes are extra where they apply.
• The institute also runs management development programmes for companies and development programmes for faculty.

Cancel by 30 September and all academic fees and deposits come back; from 1 November only the deposits do. These rules, reissued in February 2026, apply to every Symbiosis International University institute until UGC revises its policy.

• Hostel and mess are refunded after deducting the period used up to the cancellation date or 31 October, whichever is earlier; from 1 November nothing is refunded for hostel or mess.
• Where an admission schedule runs past 31 October, the UGC slabs apply instead: 100% (less up to 5%, capped at ₹5,000) if notice comes 15 days or more before the last date of admission, then 90% inside the last 15 days before it, 80% up to 15 days after, 50% up to 30 days after, and nothing later.
• The insurance premium and registration or administrative fees are never refunded; refunds are paid within 15 days of the written application.
• No Symbiosis institute may keep original certificates; self-attested copies must be accepted.

The 2024-26 batch recorded a ₹9.5 lakh median and an ₹8.6 lakh mean salary, with offers from 40 companies; the top four packages were ₹19.72 lakh, ₹16 lakh, ₹14 lakh and ₹13 lakh. The first batch, 2023-25, published no mean or median: its top four packages were ₹12 lakh, ₹12 lakh, ₹11 lakh and ₹9 lakh, from 19 companies.

Software, AI, analytics and IT firms were the largest group of recruiters in both batches: 8 of the 40 companies in 2024-26 and 8 of the 19 in 2023-25, with finance firms 6 in each. Recruiters in 2023-25 included Grant Thornton, Yes Bank, HDFC Bank and SBI Mutual Fund.

SIBM Noida is the only SIBM campus in the National Capital Region, and with 60 seats the smallest. Its ₹18,80,000 academic fee for 2026-28 sits between SIBM Hyderabad (₹17,00,000 for 2026-28) and SIBM Bengaluru (₹21,40,000), and all of them admit on one SNAP score with a separate ₹1,000 registration each.

Within Delhi NCR, LBSIM Delhi charges ₹17,25,000 in tuition for its 2027-29 PGDM and admits through CAT, XAT or GMAT; its 2024-26 batch averaged ₹12.4 lakh on interim figures. GIMS Greater Noida is a lower-fee PGDM option in the same district. A candidate set on Symbiosis can also add SIBM Nagpur on the same SNAP score.
