IBS, Hyderabad

It’s highly illogical to compare a well-recognized brand like ISB with a no-name institute like IBS. It seems you are a bit confused between the 2 schools because comparing them is a literal joke. 

ISB is ranked 1st in India and 4th in Asia and 32nd in the World at Best B Schools. It’s a B School that competes with top B schools like IIM ABC and here you are comparing it with a C grade B school in the country. 

Almost anyone can get into IBS owing to the low qualifying scores needed and high number of seats available. Whereas getting into ISB is difficult even with a GMAT score as high as 99 percentile. ISB has the best corporate relations team in India and they work hard to get the roles that you want in the corporate sector.

The two colleges may share the same alphabet in their acronyms but there are nowhere similar when it comes to the brand name and worth.

Between these two options, MBA from IBS Hyderabad is better. However, you should know that the ROI for the degree isn’t that good. Due to the huge student intake, everyone doesn’t get the required attention. During placement too, every student doesn’t get placement offers. IBS Hyderabad placement highlights state the average CTC offered was 7.97 LPA. 

If you are going to Hyderabad, you should consider other reputed management institutes like Ashoka School of Business. 

IBS Hyderabad will be better than IMT Hyderabad. It teaches Harvard cases in the 3rd and 4th semesters. The course work includes more than 1000 case studies. Many of the professors in this institute are internationally acclaimed.  

IBS Hyderabad placement records have been pretty good over the recent years. During 2022 placement drive, the average CTC offered was INR 8.55 LPA. While the highest CTC offered was INR 53.45 LPA (International). 

However, IBS Hyderabad has a huge batch size. Due to the large batch size, all the students don’t get groomed and placed well. 

Among these three institutes, choosing NMIMS Hyderabad will be better. Despite being established recently, it became well-recognized in the industry. 

• The faculty base is one of the best in the country. It organizes a lot of guest lectures. Speakers from different industries provide insight into the latest happening in the industry. 
• The campus has many active clubs and committees.
• In 2021 placement drive, they clocked an average of 9.59 LPA.
• Few of the major recruiters that took part in the placement drive are Lido, Tech Mahindra, Capgemini, Deloitte, etc.
