MBA Placements in India: Median Salaries Compared
Median salaries in the official placement reports we have verified range from ₹4.05 lakh (IPS Academy IBMR) to ₹37 lakh (IIM Ahmedabad) a year. Reports cover different graduating years and define salary in their own way, so each figure carries its year and source. Past medians describe a past batch; they do not promise yours.

How should you read MBA placement figures?
- Use the median, and check how many of the batch sought and got placements.
- Compare the same graduating year where you can; markets move from year to year.
- Look at the median for your intended specialisation if the report gives one.
- Treat any figure not in an official report on the institute’s own website with caution.
Frequently asked questions
Which MBA college has the highest median salary?
Among the reports we have verified, the highest median is ₹37,00,000 a year at IIM Ahmedabad (2026).
Why the median and not the average or highest package?
The median is the salary of the middle graduate, so a few very large offers cannot pull it up. The highest package describes one person. We show medians only and never mix them with averages.
Do past placements guarantee a job after an MBA?
No. Placements depend on the economy, your specialisation, prior experience and your own performance. Use the figures to compare institutes, not to predict your salary.
