IIT Bombay cutoff changes every year based on several important factors. Understanding these factors can help students estimate how the 2026 cutoff may change:

• Number of JEE Advanced qualified students: If more students qualify for JEE Advanced, competition for top branches like CSE and Electrical Engineering increases, leading to tougher cutoffs.
• Difficulty level of JEE Advanced: If the exam is easier, students usually score higher marks, which increases competition and lowers closing ranks. A tougher paper may slightly relax the cutoff.
• Total seats available: The number of seats offered by IIT Bombay in each branch directly affects cutoff ranks. If seats increase in a branch, the cutoff may become slightly easier.
• Popularity of branches: Courses like Computer Science and Electrical Engineering are always in high demand, so their cutoffs usually remain very competitive every year.
• Category-wise reservation: Separate cutoffs are prepared for General, OBC-NCL, SC, ST, and EWS categories as per Government of India reservation rules. Female supernumerary seats also affect cutoff movement.
• JoSAA counselling rounds: Some students leave seats in later counselling rounds after getting better options at other IITs. Because of this, cutoffs for some branches decrease slightly in Round 5 and Round 6.
• Previous year cutoff trends: Previous years’ cutoff data helps students understand which branches are possible at their rank and also influences counselling trends during seat allotment.
