Academic qualification: A minimum 2.1 Honours degree (approx. 60–70%, upper second‑class) or equivalent from a recognized university. Indian bachelor’s grads typically require a CGPA around 6.5+/10, or 65–70%+ aggregate, depending on university conversion scales.
Relevant background / prerequisites: A degree in finance, economics, business, engineering, mathematics, statistics, actuarial science or related quantitative discipline is preferred. Strong coursework in quantitative/statistics/mathematical finance significantly strengthens the application.
Students without finance-specific background may still apply if they show good quantitative ability and express interest in finance through essays, internships or additional courses.
