IPMAT Indore Syllabus & Topic-Wise Weightage

This IPMAT Indore syllabus is built from a question-by-question analysis of 8 years (2019 to 2026) of previous IPMAT Indore question papers, 670 questions in total. Every question is tagged to a section and a subtopic, so the weightage shown here reflects what has actually been asked in the exam rather than a generic topic list.

The paper draws its questions from 2 sections: Quantitative Ability (345 questions) and Verbal Ability (325 questions). That works out to roughly 84 analysed questions per year, enough to give a reliable picture of how IPMAT Indore distributes its marks across topics.

IPMAT Indore Quantitative Ability Syllabus

The Quantitative Ability section accounts for 345 of the 670 questions analysed, which is around 51% of the IPMAT Indore paper across 2019 to 2026. In 2026 alone it contributed 45 questions.

Within Quantitative Ability, these subtopics carry the most weightage, shown with their share of the section's questions:

• Progression & Series: 25 questions, around 7% of the section
• Logarithms: 23 questions, around 7% of the section
• Arrangements: 21 questions, around 6% of the section
• Permutation & Combination: 19 questions, around 6% of the section
• Set Theory: 16 questions, around 5% of the section
• Tabular Data: 16 questions, around 5% of the section

The remaining 225 questions in Quantitative Ability are spread across 36 lower-weightage subtopics, including Matrices & Determinants, Circles, and Modulus. These are worth a revision pass once the high-yield areas above are covered.

IPMAT Indore Verbal Ability Syllabus

The Verbal Ability section accounts for 325 of the 670 questions analysed, which is around 49% of the IPMAT Indore paper across 2019 to 2026. In 2026 alone it contributed 45 questions.

Within Verbal Ability, these subtopics carry the most weightage, shown with their share of the section's questions:

• Reading Comprehension: 84 questions, around 26% of the section
• Sentence Completion: 53 questions, around 16% of the section
• Vocabulary: 45 questions, around 14% of the section
• Sentence Correction: 37 questions, around 11% of the section
• Parajumbles: 34 questions, around 10% of the section
• Incorrect Word: 33 questions, around 10% of the section

The remaining 39 questions in Verbal Ability are spread across 2 lower-weightage subtopics, including Paracompletion and Conversation Analysis. These are worth a revision pass once the high-yield areas above are covered.

How to Use the IPMAT Indore Syllabus Weightage

Start your IPMAT Indore preparation with the highest-weightage subtopics in each section, since they decide the largest share of marks and tend to repeat year after year. The interactive tables above break every subtopic down year by year, so you can check whether an area is gaining or losing weightage before committing study time to it.

Once the high-yield subtopics feel comfortable, work through the lower-weightage areas so the paper holds no surprises on exam day. Because this breakdown comes from real IPMAT Indore previous year questions, the most effective next step is to practise those same papers and track your accuracy subtopic by subtopic.
