This blog is created to give you a clear and simple understanding of previous year cutoffs for C-DAC PG Diploma programs from 2026, 2025, 2024, 2023, 2022, and 2021. These cutoffs are approximate, but they provide a strong idea of the rank you typically need to secure admission into different training centres across India.
The Centre for Development of Advanced Computing is one of the leading institutions in India for advanced computing and IT education. Every year, thousands of students appear for the C-CAT exam, and admission mainly depends on your rank, especially in Sections A and B.
Many students get confused while filling preferences during counselling. Understanding cutoff trends helps you avoid wrong choices and increases your chances of getting a better centre.
For most programs like PGCP-AC, PGCP-BDA, PGCP-AI, PGCP-ITISS, PGCP-DAI, PGCP-DMC, PGCP-ASSD, PGCP-HPCSA, PGCP-FBD, and PGCP-CSF, your rank is calculated based on Section A and Section B.
For programs like PGCP-ESD, PGCP-VLSI, and PGCP-RAT, the rank is calculated using Section A, Section B, and Section C, since these courses involve deeper hardware concepts.
Understanding this difference is important for making the right decisions during admission.
