The NIFT 2026 tie-breaker rule is one of the important parts of the NIFT seat allotment. In case, if two or more candidates have secured the same NIFT marks, candidates will be offered seats as per their NIFT rank decided by the NIFT tie-breaker rule.
While applying the NIFT tie-breaker criteria, the following factors will be considered.
When two NIFT aspirants have secured equal NIFT score, then the marks scored in the exam with higher weightages in the NIFT selection criteria will be used to break the tie.
For example, if two candidates who appeared for the NIFT B.Des course and have equal marks, then the marks secured in CAT (Part B) will be calculated, and those who have scored more will get the lower NIFT rank.
If the marks secured in the CAT exam are also the same then the marks score in the NIFT GAT exam will be taken into consideration.
If the NIFT tie-persist, then the marks obtained subject-wise in GAT in the following order will be considered.
If the NIFT tie still persists, the marks obtained subject-wise in GET in the following order will be considered.
