SNAP 2026 exam is scheduled to be held on December 13, 19, and 26, 2026, and following this, MBA aspirants are curious about which of the 17 Symbiosis institutes actually have the best ROI. Based on the indicative calculation for SNAP institutes where comparable average CTC and fee data are available, the calculated figure remains negative for the colleges shown. This may be due to either lower SNAP exam MBA average packages or higher SNAP colleges' MBA fees. From the list of 17 SNAP 2026 colleges, SIBM Pune tops the list with -3.82% return on investment, followed by SIM Pune at 18.08%, and more.
SIBM Pune apparently tops the list of SNAP 2026 colleges with a less negative return on investment, followed by SIMS Pune and SIM Pune that have lower MBA fees than other SNAP-accepting colleges. Though SIBM Pune does not have a positive return on investment, it has the highest package of around Rs. 74.84 LPA, which is comparable to top IIMs and non-IIMs.

We have used SNAP 2026 colleges' MBA average package and their respective expected MBA fees for the academic year 2027-29 to calculate the SNAP 2026 colleges' return on investment. Moreover, we have assumed all other aspects to be constant for the sake of simplicity.
ROI in Percentage = [(MBA Average Package − MBA Fees) / MBA Fees] × 100 |

The lower SNAP colleges' MBA average package alone is not responsible for a negative return on investment; high SNAP colleges' MBA fees are equally responsible for the undesirable ROI. For instance, SCMHRD recorded a good average package of Rs. 21.90 LPA, but the SCMHRD MBA fees of Rs. 28.53 lakh dragged the ROI to -23.24%.
SNAP 2026 Colleges | SNAP MBA Fees 2027-29 |
