Forbes ranking methodology
Every two years, Forbes ranks the world’s business schools based on their return on investment. They compare the earnings of the class in the first five years out of business school to their opportunity cost (forgone compensation, tuition and required fees) to arrive at a “5-year M.B.A. gain,” on which Forbes ranks the schools.

Forbes surveyed 17,000 alumni at 100 schools regarding their pre-and post-MBA compensation, career choice and location. Schools wherefrom Forbes did not hear back from at least 15% of their alumni were not included in the rankings. Forbes also did not include schools where alumni had a negative ROI after five years

Forbes measured total compensation, including salary, bonuses and exercised stock options. It has been  assumed that compensation would have risen half as fast as their post-MBA salary increases had these alumni not attended business school. The “5-year M.B.A. gain” represents the net cumulative amount the typical alumni would have earned after five years by getting their MBA versus staying in their pre-M.B.A. career. The schools are all ranked are based on their 5-year MBA gain.

The next step was to adjust the median 5-year M.B.A. gains for cost of living expenses and discount their earnings gains using a rate tied to the discount rate used by large companies in their pension funds. Tuition to account for students who pay in-state rates and for the non-repayable financial aid that schools dole out have also been discounted. Taxes from the earnings gains or account for the debt repayments from student loans have not been deducted.

The international schools include both one- and two-year programs. One-year programs have an advantage from an ROI standpoint because students only have one year of forgone compensation. Forbes has calculated each school’s 5-year M.B.A. gain using data reported by the alumni in their local currency and then converted the gain using an average exchange rate over the past five years.

Forbes in its 2013 ranking placed the GMBA of S P Jain at the 5th position in  Asia in its Best International Business Schools Rankings. Financial Times also ranked this programme consecutively in top 100 Global MBA Rankings  in 2011 and 2012.
