Interpretations & Notes

• While average and median salary figures are strong (₹ 32-35 LPA region), students should note that the distribution across roles, sectors and companies could vary widely.

• The high share of consulting hires suggests that those aiming for strategy/consulting roles may find particularly strong opportunities at IIM B—but other domains are increasingly active as well.

• For EPGP-level students (mid-career executives), the placement figures are competitive and reflect mid-senior level management opportunities rather than entry-level roles.
