We study the light right-handed slepton bulk regions for dark matter from the generalized minimal supergravity (GmSUGRA) in the minimal supersymmetric Standard Model. In our comprehensive numerical studies, we show that Rϕ˜10% is a conservative criterion to formulate bulk region, where Rϕ˜(mϕ˜mχ˜10)/mχ˜10. For right-handed stau as the next-to-the-lightest supersymmetric particle (NLSP), we find a large viable parameter space, consistent with the current LHC constraints, Planck2018 dark matter relic density bounds, and direct bounds on neutralino-nucleons scattering cross section that naturally supports the right-handed stau bulk regions for dark matter. In particular, the upper bounds on the masses of the lightest supersymmetric particle neutralino and right-handed stau are about 120.4 and 138 GeV, respectively. This bulk region may be beyond the current LHC reach and could be probed at LUX-ZEPLIN, a next-generation dark matter direct-detection experiment, the Future Circular Collider at CERN, and the Circular Electron Positron Collider. However, the scenario with the right-handed selectron as the NLSP is excluded by the LHC supersymmetry searches.
