Hi Prachi,

Well, if you are in just for the degree then yea, why not! Half the batch in IBS Mumbai comes here for fun, just for the degree. Trust me you don't want to have that kind of company if you are pursuing a professional course.

There are things an MBA college teaches, and IBS Mumbai does none of them.

There are these good for nothing clubs, which organize events, and nothing else. The learning atmosphere is zero, all students care about is grades, and the case study method of learning is a good way to go, but when you have half disinterested students, only for the degree, you can never have a learning experience.

At the end of 2 years, students can’t even make a decent CV for themselves. I did make a mistake of joining, but i did pretty well for myself. Campus placements are bleak (do check for the latest ones from a current student)

The college was supposedly good 5–6 years back as the batch size was small, there were good students, but now the strength has gone up to 600–700. So naturally the entire scenario changed, and during my time 2012–2014, there were close to 700 odd students, barely 350 got placed, and out of those 350 the highest package was probably 8–10LPA and only 10–12 students got through.

My advice, don’t go there an MBA is tough, and it teaches you a lot, IBS Mumbai teaches nothing, I barely struggled during my MBA it was too easy to be true, I see friends pursuing MBA from other colleges and I see the amount of hard work they put in and practical knowledge they gain by taking part in competitions/classes/case studies etc.

If you have any questions please feel free to ask me,

Thank you

Hello Pruthibi,

I would like to say that, in any institute or college you may study, because every institutes have their own way of teaching, but if you want to know exactly that which is better, then you should ask the individuals who is or who was studying in that institute.
You should focus on yourself and your study.

Hello Anjum,

If you are looking for a career in Finance, I would recommend IBS Mumbai, with respect to the placements, IBS Mumbai has a lot of companies coming in, offering roles in the field of finance.

Having said this, Pune is also not a bad option, Finance companies do come down, but comparatively less though. You really have to be in your A game to land a good finance company with the desired pay package.

Looking at it from the cost of living, I would say look at the big picture, yes Mumbai is an expensive place to stay, but think about your career in the long run.

Hope this helps.

Hi Akshay,

If you're selected for ibs mumbai then definitely go for it. IFHE is a well reputed brand all over the world and recently have got a best case study in oscar awards.

College is really good in terms of ROI. It's average package is approx 6.5 lacs and highest upto 16 lacs.

College has good number a faculty and offers pgpm course in Marketing, finance, Operation and Human Resource.

If interested in MBA also then you have to give some extra exams and pay over 50000 above your fees to get a dual degree pgpm+mba.

wish you all the best !!

Hi Abhi, I would say both colleges would go neck to neck with each other, but Christ will have a slight leading edge over ibs mumbai. The faculty and academics is quite good in Christ university compared to IBS Mumbai. Thr infrastructure wise, Christ >> IBS. Now coming to campus life and all cultural gathering, Christ University will have a slight edge over IBS Mumbai. The fees in IBS Mumbai is around 8 lakhs for pgdm where it is around 6.5 lakhs and hence here also Christ University > ibs mumbai. Placement wise the average salary at Christ University is around 6-6.5 lakhs, whereas in IBS Mumbai it is again the same around 6-6.5 lpa. So in terms of ROI, Christ University > IBS Mumbai. Overall looking at various criterias, Christ university has good marks over ibs mimbai. 

Hello Shamika,

Fees are one of the comparative parameters that you have while comparing IBS Hyderabad and IBS Mumbai, in IBS Mumbai there is half the fees, same the ROI, also corporate exposure is more in IBS Mumbai and the placements are more or less the same, just the CTC’s vary depending upon various companies.

IBS Hyderabad is a deemed university so you get an MBA degree and not a PGPM certificate whereas at IBS Mumbai you will have to sacrifice the MBA degree for a PGPM.

That's all the difference that there is. If you are someone from outside Mumbai then I suggest you go for IBS Hyderabad. Infrastructure and facilities wise also it is the best out of the two.

Hope this helps.

Hello Abhi,

I would like to say that, in any institute you may study, because every institutes have their own way of teaching, this is my view about institutes but if you want to know that which is better, then you should ask the individuals who is or who was studying in that institute.
