There is no upper age limit for admission to regular two-year MBA/PGDM programs in India. Candidates of any age can apply as long as they meet academic and entrance exam criteria. However, executive MBA programs often specify a minimum age (e.g., 25–27 years) and require work experience. Some public sector undertakings or government scholarships may impose age restrictions, but the institutes themselves (including IIMs, XLRI, FMS) do not. In fact, MBA classrooms often include students ranging from 21 to 35+ years, especially in programs that value work experience.
