However, the aforementioned fee is only indicative considering it is sourced from unofficial sources. However, as per the official website, the over MBA programme fee is inclusive of tuition fee, course materials fee, student’s stay and food during campus visits and other service facilities, such as library, etc. Students can also pay this programme fee in installments.

Candidates seeking admisison to MBA (or PGP) are not required to have any work experience. However, if there are students with part-time experience, its experience, understanding and knowledge can only help them crack the interview round. For MBA-PGPX, it is compulsory for students to have at least four years of full-time work experience, any part-time experience beyond this duration won't be a concern. For the ePGD-ABA courses, however, the official website mentions the requirement of two years' of work experience (preferably in the domain of Business Analytics) which can be waived for candidates with exceptional academic qualifications. Since there is no mention whether the required experience is full-time or part-time for ePGD-ABA, students can confirm the same from the admission office.
