The placements at IRMA are good enough. A participant at IRMA has a diverse portfolio of companies to choose from. This time, Colgate offered the highest package of 27.4 lacs p.a. CTC to one of the participants. Other than that, the median as well as average package stands at a little above 8.5 lacs p.a. with 100% placements.

Hello Ajay,
Median salary is around 8.2 lacs. Highest package went as high as 27 lacs. Most of the well established brands paid in the range of 10-19 lacs.
But there are many participants who willingly joined development organizations which have salary packages lower than median. But many of them might avail the bridge fund facility provided by IRMA to bridge the gap between median and their actual salary. Going into development sector might not give immediate benefits but after experience of certain years. Kind of experience, position, respect and even the potential to earn very high salaries by joining big international firms who prefer experienced people for certain tasks.(or CSR heads of big companies)
