I have described all the factors about this college.

Placements: The placement cell of this college is less active, and the placement percentage is average. 35-40% of students get a placement offer. Companies like RBS, Genpact, and Oberoi are giving job offers at my college. Others who have not been placed sit in the Central Placement Office of this university.

Overall, it is a good college for the MBA course.

Placements: The placement record of this college is average. The college placement cell is inactive. Very few companies like RBS, Genpact, Oberoi, etc., hire high-quality students. Only 35-40% of students get placed on the campus, and others sit in the central placements of the university. I think college placement needs to be improved.

Average okay because of average placements, good infrastructure, and lack of teaching skills.

Placements: 50 to 60% get placements in BBA which is not too good. There are people who have potential and get but mostly don't get it. The highest package is 12.5 LPA. The lowest package is 6 LPA. Top companies are Tata Steel, JP Morgan, etc. Many students get internships. Top roles offered are data analyst and business analyst.

This is the best college for MBA course.

Placements: Our college's MBA placement cell provides students with the chance to secure jobs in the industry. 70% of the students secure placements, while the remaining ones in our college choose to pursue higher education. Cognizant, Wells Fargo, DeltaX, and others are the leading firms. If not through the placement cell, clubs also provide placement options.

Best college for people who are here just for a degree certificate from a prestigious university.

Placements: I would like to tell you about the placements at my college. Only 30-40% of the people from each course get placed every year. The highest package would be around 12 LPA - 14 LPA for undergraduate companies like Amazon and Aurobindo often come for placements. Students also get internships outside the campus.

My knowledge of the college.

Placements: In my college, the average package ranges from 3 to 15 LPA every year for all courses and students. A wide range of companies hire students, from top to entry-level, based on their performance. There are three main placement grounds.
