Gargi Cut-off 2026: DU Commerce Course Scores

Gargi College CUET Cutoff 2026: Round 1 Scores

Gargi College recorded a 2026 DU CSAS Round 1 UR minimum allocation score of 831.2 for B.Com. (Hons.), the highest among the directly listed programmes covered on this page. The lowest directly listed score was 689.0 for B.A. (Hons.) Business Economics.

A minimum allocation score is not a pre-announced or guaranteed cut-off. It is the lowest score at which a seat was allocated in that round for the relevant programme and category, subject to eligibility, preference order, seat availability, tie-breaking and completion of admission formalities.

About Gargi & Legacy

Established in 1967 and named after the ancient female sage Gargi, the college has grown into one of South Campus's premier institutions for women, known for its vibrant campus life and strong corporate placement record. Located on Siri Fort Road, it is highly sought after by women applicants for commerce and economics.

Under the National Institutional Ranking Framework (NIRF) 2025, Gargi College was ranked 33 in the College category, highlighting its scholastic standing and educational quality nationally.

2026 Round 1 minimum allocation scores

Scope: These are UR-category scores rounded to one decimal. Exact BA Programme subject combinations are not collapsed into generic labels because DU publishes a separate score for each combination.

Category note: UR is used as the consistent comparison basis across these 30 pages. OBC-NCL, SC, ST, EWS, minority and supernumerary allocation scores can differ materially. A blank category cell in the DU source is not a zero; use the exact programme-category row before drawing conclusions.

What the scores mean for applicants

The directly listed options span 4 programmes. In Round 1, B.Com. (Hons.) had the highest UR minimum allocation score at 831.2, while B.A. (Hons.) Business Economics was lowest at 689.0. This ordering is descriptive, not a statement that one curriculum is inherently better: the programmes can use different eligibility and CUET merit combinations.

The within-college spread is 142.2 points. That number is useful for describing the Round 1 pattern, but it should not be used to infer that admission to one programme is “easier” without checking its eligibility formula, applicant pool and available seats.

How competitive was Gargi College within this 30-college set?

The table compares only the same programme across the 30 college pages in this package. It is not a quality ranking and does not predict future rounds.

Programme choice: what is distinctive here?

Gargi offers women applicants a broad set of commerce-adjacent choices: B.Com. (Hons.), B.Com., Economics and Business Economics. It is therefore more flexible than women’s colleges that offer only one direct commerce or economics route.

The college is located near Siri Fort and offers both conventional commerce programmes and B.A. (Hons.) Business Economics. This is a women-only college, so eligibility is restricted accordingly.

Beyond academics, Gargi has a thriving extracurricular culture. Students can join active student clubs and societies such as Enactus Gargi, Reverie (Dance), and Sparx (Creative Writing) which host national-level fests, academic symposiums, and networking events, contributing significantly to skill building and career readiness.

Who should place Gargi College high in the preference list?

Women applicants should compare Gargi not only on college preference but also on whether they want a traditional commerce degree, Economics or the more specialised Business Economics route.

A robust preference list normally contains:

1. ambitious college-programme combinations you would genuinely accept;
2. realistic same-programme alternatives near your simulated rank or recent allocation score;
3. safer options that still meet your course, location and eligibility requirements.

Do not place a course you do not want above a preferred course merely to obtain a more recognisable college name. Under CSAS, the order represents your actual preference.

Eligibility checkpoints before you add these programmes

• For B.Com. (Hons.), verify the exact 2026 CUET merit combination in the DU Bulletin, including the permitted Mathematics/Applied Mathematics or Accountancy/Book Keeping route and the required language/domain subjects.
• For B.Com., confirm the permitted language, domain-subject and General Aptitude/Test combination for 2026; do not assume it is identical to B.Com. (Hons.).
• For B.A. (Hons.) Economics, Mathematics/Applied Mathematics eligibility is a critical checkpoint. Confirm both Class XII subject mapping and the CUET papers used in the merit score.
• For B.A. (Hons.) Business Economics, check the current Mathematics/Applied Mathematics and aptitude/general-test requirements before adding the programme to your preference list.

DU’s 2026 admission process is based on CUET-UG and CSAS. Applicants must verify the current Bulletin of Information rather than relying on older blog posts, coaching-site formulas or previous-year subject combinations.

NIRF and institutional context

Gargi College was ranked 33 in the NIRF 2025 College category.

NIRF can provide institutional context, but it does not rank individual undergraduate programmes and should not replace course-level research. For this decision, the programme curriculum, eligibility, location, fees, accommodation requirements and personal career plans are more directly relevant.

Fees, hostel and placements: how to verify safely

This guide does not reproduce approximate fees, hostel capacities, average packages or recruiter lists unless they are supported by a current primary document. Before accepting a seat:

• use the college’s current prospectus or fee notice for the exact programme and academic year;
• check whether hostel accommodation exists for your gender/category and review the current allocation policy (Note: Gargi typically does not offer on-campus hostel facilities; students often find PG accommodation in Siri Fort, Lajpat Nagar, or Green Park);
• treat placement reports as college-wide unless the report explicitly provides programme-level data;
• distinguish average CTC, median CTC, highest CTC, offers and number of students placed.
