PUMBA MBA College Admissions Through ATMA 2027: Cutoffs, Fees and Placements

Important clarification: PUMBA’s ATMA-based route is for its MBA in Pharma-Biotechnology (MBA PBT), not the flagship MBA++ programme. The regular MBA++ admission process is separate. Applicants should check the programme name carefully before choosing an entrance-test route.

As of October 29, 2026, PUMBA has not published its MBA PBT admission schedule for the 2027 intake. The latest available programme-specific information covers the 2026–27 cycle. Its dates and eligibility are useful for planning, but should not be treated as the confirmed 2027 schedule.

ATMA route: programme and eligibility

PUMBA’s 2026–27 eligibility page required an ATMA score for MBA PBT. Applicants needed a relevant bachelor’s or master’s degree in fields such as sciences, agriculture, medicine, engineering or pharmacy, with at least 50% aggregate marks. The minimum was 45% for reserved-category candidates from Maharashtra. Final-year candidates could apply, subject to the stated degree-completion deadline.

The university’s published process also required candidates to register through its One Campus portal and complete document verification. Being named on a merit list did not guarantee admission: the university confirmed admission only after document approval and fee payment.

Cutoff, fees and placement information

Admission detail	Latest official information available
ATMA cutoff	The 2026–27 eligibility and process pages require a qualifying ATMA score but do not state a numeric percentile cutoff.
2027 cutoff	Not published as of October 29, 2026.
2027–29 tuition fee	Not published in the current 2027 admission information.
Fee payment	The 2026–27 process directs shortlisted applicants to the university portal for the admission challan and online payment.
Placement figures	No current MBA PBT batch-wise placement report or salary figures were located on the official pages reviewed.

Applicants should avoid relying on predicted ATMA percentiles or old fee tables as confirmed 2027 figures. The official 2026–27 instructions say that the payment challan becomes available after department approval; candidates should use that current challan to confirm the amount payable. For MBA PBT-specific placement information, PUMBA lists a separate placement contact for the programme.
