IBS-Mumbai is affiliated to ICFAI University (IFHE Group). It is an autonomous university which has its own set of institutions rules and regulations. Majority of the private institutes does not have AICTE recognition or accreditation. Many corporate or business houses does look for AICTE or UGC Approval at the time of hiring candidates from B-Schools. Be it a PGPM/PGDM/MBA/MMS, all matters is the placements that the institute provides to its candidates or students. It is the name or brand value of the institute that makes the difference at the time of placements. Everything right from company's visit, package offered by them, to the profile given depends upon the name of the institute it has with the corporate. Many companies recruit people from B-Schools based on the performance given by their Alumni or ex-students. There are various other big autonomous institutions like IIM (Ahmedabad, Lucknow, Calcutta & others), JBIMS (Mumbai), NMIMS (Mumbai, Hyderabad & Bangalore), Symbiosis Institute (Pune).

The placements status of IBS Mumbai is still the same like last year, in fact better in spite of demonetisation.

Recently big companies like Hero Fin Corp, Kotak Mahindra Prime, Society Tea, MSCI, VRX Labs, Zydus Wellness, ICICI Securities, Tech Mahindra, Marathon Realty, Eskay Resorts, ICE (Balaji Telefilms), Index media, sine.com and Lodha had visited the campus. It would be solely your decision whether you want to go for IBS or some other institutions. Choice is yours, it's your life, no one can force you to take decisions, just take a smart decision and go for the institute of your choice. This is all I need to say. Give interview at IBS and then decide, whether you want to be at IBS or some where else. I am sure you will like IBS. But at the end of the day, decision will be all yours.
