Compare Business School Series 6: IIFT Delhi vs MDI G vs SPJIMR vs XLRI Jamshedpur
Update as on Jan 02, 2021. This comparison is unfair. These 4 top institutes rank just after the top 4 or 5 IIMs. A comparative analysis along with
few of the IIMs should have been done to check where each of them stands in the top 10 or top 15. These Business Schools rank above many IIMs in terms of alumni network, corporate connect, International Collaboration, placement, PPOs & offers. May be we will do that soon once the IIMs declare the data. For the batch 2017-19 all these Business School released final placement and average salary above 20 lpa.
Meanwhile, a quick glance at these four top B Schools of the Country.
