Placement eligibility checker
Indicative — based on commonly published criteria from recent seasons; the specific drive notification always governs
Before you spend weeks preparing for a company, check whether the eligibility screen lets you in — and if not, exactly which number is the problem.
| Company | Status |
|---|
Assumes the common "60% or 6.0 CGPA throughout" pattern with per-company gap caps where publicly stated. Active backlogs show a warning (clear before onboarding) rather than a rejection, matching most companies' actual policy. Rules change every drive — verify on the official notification before deciding anything.

Can I sit for placements with an active backlog?
Most mass recruiters let you WRITE the exam with an active backlog but require all backlogs cleared before onboarding. A few campus drives screen earlier. So an active backlog is a "clear it fast" situation, not an automatic disqualification — register, and clear it at the next supplementary exam.
Is the 60% criterion negotiable?
No — eligibility screens are automated and unforgiving. But note most companies phrase it as "60% OR 6.0 CGPA", and CGPA often clears when the converted percentage doesn't. Check both forms before ruling yourself out.
How do education gaps affect eligibility?
Companies cap total education gap — commonly 2 years (TCS) or 3 years (Wipro); others say "explainable gaps" without a hard number. A drop year for entrance prep counts as gap; always carry documentation for any gap and state it honestly — hiding it fails background verification.
Do these rules change?
Yes — every season, every drive. This checker reflects the commonly published criteria for recent seasons and is indicative only. The eligibility section of the specific drive notification you're applying to is the only rulebook that matters.
