NIRF #1 · Ahmedabad
New Delhi
| ₹27.5L | Total fees | ₹2.43L |
|---|---|---|
| ₹35.5 LPA | Average CTC | ₹30.1 LPA |
| 1.3× | CTC ÷ fees | 12.4× |
Our take
FMS charges a small fraction of IIM Ahmedabad’s fee for average pay in a similar range, so it returns far more for the money. IIM Ahmedabad ranks higher and has the bigger brand.
NIRF #10 · Jamshedpur
NIRF #9 · Gurugram
| ₹30.6L | Total fees | ₹26.55L |
|---|---|---|
| ₹31.08 LPA | Average CTC | ₹26.2 LPA |

Our take
XLRI pays more on average and is best known for HR. MDI costs a little less and is in Gurugram, close to Delhi NCR employers.
