MBA/PGDM

LPU has this pretty solid placement ecosystem for MBA students, with recruiters coming in from various sectors like banking, FMCG, consulting, IT, e-commerce, and financial services ,and they do visit the campus. In some recent placement seasons, the highest MBA package went up to INR 49.4 LPA, and the top 10% of MBA students had an average package of INR 13.6 LPA. Now between Marketing and Tourism & Hospitality ,I'd nudge you toward Marketing if you want wider career mobility, because it basically opens a few or rather doors across nearly every field, including FMCG , retail , digital marketing, banking, and consulting. Tourism & Hospitality is a fine option if you're more drawn to the hospitality and travel ecosystem, plus service roles in particular .

If you ve got a BBM and 60% marks, then most times you can apply for the MBA at LPU, but only if you end up matching the university admission requirements too. Which specialization is “best” really depends more on what you like doing, not just on your undergrad degree, like Marketing is a solid pick if you are into selling, branding, digital marketing, and business development. But then again Finance, HR, and Business Analytics are also pretty common and many students go for those. Now for the 2026 admission cycle, the tuition fee for the regular 2 year MBA is INR 8.8 lakh (that is INR 2.2 lakh each semester), and that figure is without hostel plus other charges that may apply. Also scholarships are available via LPUNEST and other qualifying factors, so your total cost can come down a lot, depending on your eligibility, and you might get a decent reduction.

If you're looking at banking, investment, wealth management, fintech, or capital markets in general, then an MBA in Financial Markets from LPU might feel like a worthwhile call. The whole thing mixes core management foundations with topics such as equity and debt market(s), financial analysis, investment strategies and risk management, not to forget internships , live projects, and some real industry interaction too. LPU also maintains a solid placement ecosystem and corporate partnerships, which can give students practical exposure, kind of early. Like any MBA, the end result still depends a lot on what you learn, the certifications you pick up, the internships you actually do and how you perform overall through the course.

The student enrollment at GIBS Business School is really based on the programme and the type of student being enrolled, but as an average number you can expect:

• PGDM: Between 240–300 a year (most commonly reported numbers are either 240 or 300)
• BBA: Approximately 180

When you add these together, the average number of students admitted to both programs every year is:

• PGDM: 250–300
• BBA: 180

The size of these admissions allows GIBS to have a good level of involvement in the classroom, as well as allowing the students access to an adequate amount of exposure to business through industry visits, club activities, internships and placements while still ensuring an adequate level of interaction with the teaching faculty.
