[Official] IFMR GSB - Premier Business School in India _ MBA Admission 2026-28: Placements, Fees, Selection Process, Eligibility & More

Reading placement reports is exhausting. Everyone claims 100% placement. Can someone tell me what the median fresher reality is at IFMR?

Yes, please let me know

Although the majority of the batch are freshers, the average work experience is around 19.2 months, so 2.5 years of work-ex is quite normal. IFMR values prior experience in academics and placements, so you won’t be at a disadvantage.

Placement reports can be exhausting, but at IFMR the numbers are quite real. The latest report shows a median CTC of 11.5 LPA and a mean of 12.04 LPA, which aligns well with what actually happens on campus. Freshers get roles across finance, BFSI, consulting and analytics. Overall, the placement committee and corporate relations and career services team at college ensures that the numbers are transparent & realistic, not just “100% placement” headlines.

Could someone provide insights into the latest placement statistics for MBA graduates?
