IRDAI Assistant Manager Eligibility
A 60% degree and an age of 21 to 30 gets the Generalist stream. Specialist streams ask for more. Here is the full checklist.
Eligibility for IRDAI Assistant Manager rests on three things: a qualifying degree with at least 60% marks (relaxed for SC/ST/PwBD), an age of 21 to 30 years with category relaxations, and Indian citizenship or an equivalent permitted status. The Generalist stream accepts any bachelor's degree; the five specialist streams each demand a specific qualification.
The degree bar is the detail most applicants check last and should check first. 60% is a hard floor in the qualifying degree for the general category, and each stream defines which degree qualifies.
