Low highest salary but high average salary: A good placement sign
The notable trends in the MBA Placement 2017 are that Many of the top B-schools have recorded reduced highest salary or it has remained near about same as that of last year, but their average pay package have not reduced. On the contrary there is an upward trend in average salary.
Few such examples are FMS Delhi; IIFT Delhi; IIM Kozhikode; IMI New Delhi; SIBM Pune; IFMR Chennai whose highest salary has gone down substantially but their average salary has gone up. It could prove to be a good sign as the gap between average salary and highest salary is narrowing down as the MBA market is picking up for the good B-schools and placement season witnesses higher packages. There are B-schools also whose highest placement has gone down but the impact on average salary package is marginal for example MDI Gurgaon.
Apart from this fact, if you further analyse the placement 2017 trends, you will find many B-schools with good increase in highest salary but not so good or negligible increase in average salary. This phenomenon indicates that the gap between highest and average salary is widening during placement.
There are still a few IIMs and other prominent B-schools who are yet to complete their placement 2017 although they used to complete it in the month of February & March every year.
