Admission criteria is very dynamic for executive MBA program and keeps on changing year on year. IIMs take only relevant work experience into consideration. For example, suppose a candidate has a total experience of five years, out of which two years in Information Technology industry, two in operations and one in finance. Below is the detailed information about the minimum criteria- -In Graduation, minimum 50% is required. Minimum 5 years of work experience - Valid entrance score -SOPs stating everything important about the candidate - Reference of the people in industry/academics. Post this, a candidate is called for an interview. After the performance, review is based on experience and other qualities. A final score is prepared and offer is made to the candidates depending on the seats.

I would like to thank you for asking this question but you have not mentioned in which year you are and currently pursuing what stream. By the way, the procedure for getting into an IIM is to crack CAT (Common Admission Test) or GMAT above 95 percentile followed by GD-Pi & a minimum of 5-years of work experience is required. For application in CAT, you need to have 50% in the graduation. There is no specific time frame to start your preparation. Therefore, you need to understand your capacity and pulse in which possible position you are standing and what is the secret sauce for cracking the competitive exams. You should plan from the second year itself and start net practice.
