Hello aspirant,

You want to understand the procedure for admission in IIM CALCUTTA. You have completed your bachelor's in BCA data analytics. Since this is a non Engineering background,you can expect a call from IIM Calcutta at lower percentile as compared to btech mtech students.
The admission process consists of 2 phases. First phase is the CAT percentile calculation. Based on CAT percentile only you will get a call from IIMs for interviews. Minimum CAT percentile for an OBC candidate is 75 percentile to expect a call from IIM CALCUTTA. Phase 2 is about shortlisting for personal interview.  For this they have various criteria and points based on 10th , 12th , graduation CGPA and work experience.
You will get 10 points if you have scored 80% + in your 10th and 12th boards.
Your graduation CGPA will be converted into percentage and points will be given accordingly.
After calculation of these points , based in them final points will be calculated out of 100.
On this basis candidates will be selected for final selection. The weightage of all the criterias are mentioned below.
CAT score - 30
Personal interview- 48
Written ability test - 10
Point granted for academic diversity at bachelor's degree for non Engineering background- 4
Work experience- 8

Since you have no work experience you will get zero points for that. To gain points you will have to gain managerial work experience.
For detailed information you can refer this article. It will completely clarify your doubt regarding iim Calcutta admission.

Hi Aspirant,

According to the official notice by IIM Calcutta, to pursue MBA or MBA ex program the first criteria required to apply is you have to have a bachelors degree with minimum of 10+2+3 formal education and with 50% equivalent marks or CGPA.You need to give CAT exam in order to appear for shortlisting of personnal interview and written ability test .The criteria for section 1 of cat requires greater or equal to 65 for OBC,DILR section requires greater than or equal to 65 and VA section requires greater than or equal to 60.So total percentile for cat required is greater or equivalent to 75 for NC OBC.
