IIT Madras becomes the first IIT to introduce a sports quota for undergraduate admissions. Two supernumerary seats will be created in each course from 2024-25 The quota aims to reward and encourage students who excel in sports. Eligibility requires a position in the JEE (Advanced) rank list and at least one medal in a national or international sports competition. A separate Sports Rank List will be prepared based on performance in specific sports. Different weightages will be given to different games in the quota.
