AIHM Cut Off 2026: NCHM JEE Closing Rank for AIHM Ambala

The AIHM cut off is not a marks score. Ambala Institute of Hotel Management (AIHM) fills its B.Sc. (Hospitality & Hotel Administration) seats through NCHM JEE counselling run by NCHMCT, so the cut-off that matters is the closing rank at which a seat was allotted. This page shows the AIHM figure from the 2026 counselling and explains how to use it for your own target.

Treat every figure here as a benchmark, not a promise. Ranks move every year with the paper, the number of candidates and the choices students fill.

AIHM Cut Off 2026: Round 1 Closing Rank

This is the Round 1 entry for 2026, as reproduced from the NCHMCT counselling opening and closing rank report. Opening and closing ranks are identical, which usually means only one candidate was allotted a seat in that category in that round. No other category appeared for AIHM in Round 1, and Round 2 figures are not included here. NCHMCT scheduled the 2026 counselling in two rounds, with the final-round allotment on 16 June 2026. For the full report, use the NCHMCT counselling portal.

How AIHM Compares With Other Institutes

The same 2026 Round 1 report shows how closing ranks differ by institute type. Central institutes close at much better ranks than private ones.

Do not confuse AIHM Ambala with AIHM Chandigarh (Dr. Ambedkar Institute of Hotel Management), a central institute listed under a different code. Its ranks are far better, and the two should not be compared.

What Affects the Cut-Off

• Paper difficulty: A harder paper lowers scores, which changes which rank a given score earns.

• Candidates and seats: More qualified candidates competing for the same seats pushes closing ranks lower.

• Choice filling: Candidates who rank central institutes first leave private seats to lower ranks, which is why private institutes close later.

• Rounds: A seat can open in the final round when candidates withdraw or upgrade, so the last closing rank may differ from Round 1.

How to Set Your Target

Aim for a rank comfortably better than 7798 instead of one that sits right at it, because a single year's figure is thin evidence. Use full-length timed papers to estimate your standing, track accuracy by section.
