[Official] XLRI JAMSHEDPUR 2020-22 Admission Queries

To all those people here who are spreading propaganda and saying that there would be a rift between students of XLRI Jamshedpur and Jhajjar are wrong.

Look at the comment section of this post.

When seniors are supporting the new campus, why would not peers help each other? Also i have heard XLRI promote helping each other.

P.S - If anyone wants to critize Jhajjar or this post then please refrain from commenting. 😄 


Hey everyone.. I am currently waitlisted for HR. Just wanted a general idea about expected movement in the coming 3 weeks. What do you guys think would be the realistic final movement for HR? What factors would affect the HR movement? Why do you think movement has been stagnant for so long? Would like to know your views on the matter. @Ray_xl @achyut1989 , would like to know your views as well.

Hi guys. So those of you who know my activity here on pg will know that I had sent an email to the authorities of the Delhi Campus to seek some clarification about placements, etc. (Please view my previous post for a snippet of the email) Now I am currently waitlisted at 249, so I might convert it in the next movement itself, so this is not some trick to move the waitlist or any false information I am posting. This is going to be a long post, anyone interested in Delhi campus is recommended to read till the end. I will try my best to keep personal bias out of this post, and try to present the information objectively.


I received a reply from the Director of the Delhi Campus i.e. Fr. George Sebastian sir in the morning. Following is the main idea of the email:

1) XLRI culture follows a ongoing collective decision making.

2) One placement coordinator who operates along with the students, decisions are taken collectively where administration and students are actively involved.

3) SIP is the first major thing concerned with the first year students, hence it is mentioned on the offer letter

4) Decision about placements will be taken collectively where the students will also be taking part, later.


He asked me to call him for further queries, which I did. 


I again reiterated my query about placement process, as well as structure of committees, etc. Following are the main ideas of the telephonic conversation:

1) Will be in Jamshedpur till SIP. Till then we can apply for any committees as per our choice and the selection procedure. 

2) Upon coming to Delhi, it will be the responsibility of the first batch students to establish the culture in the new campus. This will obviously be based on the learning in the clubs while in Jamshedpur. We will be in touch with the peers from Jamshedpur campus virtually. The student body will comprise of both Jamshedpur and Delhi students. The decision for final placements will be taken with all the student body members from both the campuses for collective benefit.

3) Upon asked what are the possible outcomes to the placement decision which is yet to be taken, he replied that it can be possible that the consulting companies which earlier used to call the students to Mumbai/Delhi will now come to the Delhi campus, and the remaining companies in Jamshedpur.

4) I asked him will there be any bias or initial screening which would hamper our opportunities, he replied that we should not be worried about this. There won't be any companies which will prefer one campus over the other. We should also not be scared/concerned about being overshadowed by Jamshedpur students. He said it all comes down to your performance, knowledge of subjects, communication skills, etc which will land you a good job. Having good academics (not being a topper only) i.e. B+ and above grades and the apt skillset is enough, no one can hamper your chances.

5) He said that almost 50% of the batch gets placed via PPOs, and SIP is something we need to be concerned about, and that is along with the Jamshedpur students. Following that, lateral placements, after which, there are relatively less students left for campus placements, and the placement process usually gets over in 2 days, and we shouldn't be worried about it. 

6) He has talked to many alumni and says that Delhi has relatively better connections w.r.t alumni.


This phone conversation lasted 11 mins, and he asked me to spread this information as possible, as there are a lot of students with similar doubts, and he can't invest the same amount of time talking to everyone. I request the readers to not doubt the credibility of this information, as I have absolutely no motive in posting wrong information or confusing fellow aspirants. Peace. 

Updated waitlist will be published today.


This post is specifically for aspirants who are waitlisted for NCR BM and have paid 50k. Rest everyone can refrain from commenting. I have waited for the last day of fees payment and want to convey my opinion only to my fellow mates.

There have been two extremes about NCR campus which can be seen in below 2 posts and comments. Please give a read.

One side which is degrading NCR campus are the random people on internet. I am sure they will come here to this post as well.

Other side which is defending the brand of XL and NCR campus are our seniors and Director of the new campus.

So it is upto you which side to trust.

At last i just want to say, if you are given an opportunity to join NCR campus then you should be grateful, not a lot of people got this waitlist. If you decide to join NCR campus you would be in the company of one the best aspirants this year. So decide accordingly, research and take inputs.

I know some people in this site have made efforts to discourage people from joining this year (due to Covid). I want to personally make a direct plea (straightforward) for people to withdraw. Yes, it is for my own good. But I only want to join this year because I already have too much work ex and I can't wait more. There will be a recession (actually, there already is) and it will take time to recover. Let alone all the jobs backlog there will be of people who graduate this year and next year who may not find jobs. And will be applying directly to same companies & competing with you for limited jobs in 2022. [Given the situation in the rest of the world, foreign placements are even less likely.] Yes, it is a selfish request. But the argument is not without its own merits. People who have less work ex. can esp. wait one more year and apply. (If you take a screenshot of your selection this year and show it to the interviewer next year, he might even give you sympathy points. And you can also try to score higher in CAT for next year with more practice.)

for XL delhi, people who earlier dint have a waitlist number and now are assigned one, have they been asked to pay 50k ??
