Placement 2016 for Non-IIMs and other private B-schools in Delhi NCR has remained bountiful and is still making substantial progress where it has not yet been completed
Not only domestic packages but also the international pay packets and number of recruiters have increased in the placement 2016 at almost all the B schools in Delhi NCR

B-schools in Delhi NCR are hitting the jackpot in placement 2016 and are making headlines whereas many IIMs are still starving to finalize their campus placement. It appears that brand IIM is losing its charismatic magic of high and 100% placement figures as 8 of the 19 IIMs are yet to be through their placement season. While 3 are to go for final placement, 5 are still starving for summer placement. Ironically these are non-IIMs and other private B-schools where the placement 2016 season has not only achieved great success but has also broken past records.

In contrast to these IIMs, the placement 2016 for Non-IIMs and other private B-schools in Delhi NCR has remained bountiful and is still making substantial progress where it has not yet been completed. While the B-schools like FMS Delhi, IIFT, BIMTECH, MDI, IMI, IMT, FORE among others have not only multiplied their placement packages and grabbed more PPOs, the placement 2016 among all these B-schools has been an accelerated process with more recruiters expressing interest in campus placement. All the top B schools have been successful in beating the global economic slowdown and have shown tremendous increase in highest and average salary packages.

It is surprising to note that even among the older IIMs, 3 of the 6 IIMs  namely IIM Kashipur, IIM Ranchi and IIM Udaipur have not completed their placement 2016. There is also not a glimpse of summer placement among 5 of the 6 very new IIMs namely IIM Amritsar, IIM BodhGaya, IIM Nagpur, IIM Sambalpur, IIM Sirmaur. The only silver lining is that IIM Visakhapatnam has been able to conclude the summer placement for its maiden PGP 2015-17 batch.

Record Breaking Placements 2016 in Delhi NCR B-schools
MBA Placements in 2016 have broken all previous records and as compared to any other post graduation programme  MBA/PGDM from a good B-school has proved to be more fruitful. Not only the final placement 2016 has been completed and closed in most of the private B-schools with higher salary packages – highest, average and the minimum also, more pre-placement offers as well as the summer placements in many new B-schools have recorded higher stipend than offered earlier.

8 IIMs without placement 2016
Not all the IIMs have been so lucky to complete their final and summer placements in 2016. IIM Kashipur, IIM Ranchi, IIM Udaipur are still struggling to conclude their final placement for PGDM 2014-16 batch. Apart from this, 5 of the 6 newest IIMs have not been able to finalize their summer placements. IIM Amritsar, IIM BodhGaya, IIM Nagpur, IIM Sambalpur and  IIM Sirmaur are yet to get their summer placement finalized for the first PGP 2015-17 batch.

Placement 2016 at Non-IIMs leap-frog
If we compare the placement 2016 statistics between IIMs and non-IIMs, the data would reveal that the demand for MBA/PGDM graduates has increased manifold and at higher packages with more placement offers as compared to past years. Not only domestic packages but also the international pay packets and number of recruiters have increased in the placement 2016 at almost all the B-schools in Delhi NCR.
