Hostel fee Rs 83500(Compulsory for all 1st year students)
Mess is around Rs 2200/PM..

Max Package 14LPA
Aver 6.5LPA

The cutoff keeps changing per year.for my batch it was low due to CAT but I am "speculating" it to be around 90-91 looking at the earlier batches.

Hi Divya,

1) You have to fill different forms for PGDM & PGDM(IB) but after getting the calls for both GD & PI process for both is the same.

2) PGDM form is available at K. J. Somaiya Institute of Management Studies & Research &
form for IB will be posted soon.

3) The cutoffs hover somewhere around
93%ile for PGDM and 90-91%ile for PGDM(IB).

4) The profiles offered during campus placements include consulting, market
research,sales,etc.

5) A detail post regarding specialization wise profiles will be posted by

I hope that helps .

Dear Rahul,

1) Second Year fees almost same as the first year fees.
2) Yes, the hostel fees is for the first year, will be same in next year.
3) The placements were pretty good for last year students with highest salary
being 14 lacs, avg above 6 lacs.

Note: The complete placement break-up will be posted in a day or two
as the data is being collated, so a little patience is requested.

Hope the info helps.

does it take CAT score only?

Only CAT scores are accepted for PGDM/PGDM(IB).

Hi,

Thanks seniors for the prompt responses. Would like to know why last year cut-offs dipped so much?? Because of CAT glitches, or some reason specific to SIMSR?

It was mainly due to CAT glitches...
they just wanted more ppl to go thru the GD/PI process so that they have more choices!!

Could you please clarify on work ex requirements

I work in a small, unregistered but highly reputed consulting firm. Have been training the trainers and managers in industry for 1.5 years. Have also got onsite international experience in training the managers. My questions is wheter my work ex (unregisterd firm) be considered by KJ Somaiya?

Also it says that we need to send an attested copy of our work ex certi. Whom should it be attested by (GOvt Officer or our CEO)?

Also could I send a 'till date' work-ex letter for my current job instead of my salary slips/joining letter?
