It's the best college for MBA course.

Placements: About 67% of students are admitted to the MBA branch, and tuition fees range from INR 35 LPA to INR 6 LPA, with an average of INR 19 LPA. Hindalco, IOCL, ONGC, and several more corporations are among the top recruiters. Each year, a considerable number of students receive vocational training. The highest-level positions available are financial analyst, financial manager, and so on.

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.

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.

My honest review of my college.

Placements: No matter how much college boasts of this. The real picture is not the same. The placement cell is present in the college, but is quite inactive. Very few companies visited the campus. Some of those are Genpact, RBS, Oberoi, etc. About 30-40% of students get placed. The rest of them sit in the central placements of the university.

The campus and infrastructure facilities are good, but the fee is high.

Placements: IBS has a strong alumni network that supports students during the placement season. Last year, the highest package offered was around 21 Lacs per year, and the college claims an average salary package of 10 Lacs per year. The main recruiters include Deloitte, Amazon, and JPMC.
