IAT rank
Your official rank is the key starting point for counselling and allocation.
IISER campus & program
Different campuses and programs can have different closing-rank patterns.

Category-specific seats and rules affect the relevant closing ranks.
Round & seat availability
Closing ranks can move as counselling rounds and seat availability change.
IAT marks required for IISER Pune and other campuses
Do not copy an expected marks figure from one year into another. A better workflow is: calculate marks → estimate rank → compare the relevant historical closing rank → verify the current counselling rules.
2026 reference, not a 2027 guarantee
The official 2026 admission guidance states that allocation considers seat availability, IAT rank, the order of program preferences and category. Use that as the framework for planning, then replace cycle-specific details when the 2027 notification is published.
Frequently asked questions
How many marks are required for IISER Pune?
There is no permanent number. Your rank, category, program preference and the counselling round matter.
What is the IAT safe score?
Instead of one universal safe score, set a target rank for the IISER/program you want and work backwards using historical data.
Is IAT cutoff based on marks or rank?
Admission allocation is rank-based in the relevant IAT process; marks are useful for planning because they produce the score from which rank is determined.
