Gaya: Indian Institute of Management Bodh Gaya, with paramount gratification, announces the closure of the current placement season for MBA Batch 2019-21 with a 100 percent placement record.
For the largest ever batch size of 109 students, IIM Bodh Gaya witnessed a vibrant placement season for the MBA batch of 2021, as close to 50 esteemed recruiters extended 100 plus offers across domains and industries for an approximate average and median CTC of 10.00 LPA and 9.0 LPA, respectively. Of all the recruiting organizations, while 45% comprised large corporates and MNCs, close to 14% of recruiters were the young Unicorns poised to take the nation forward in years to come.
Despite a 65% year-on-year increase in the batch size, leading to an overall 75% freshers in the batch, the Career Development team’s dedicated and striving effort ensured that the average CTC offered to the graduating batch increased to 10.00 LPA approx. (precisely 9.92 LPA) as against 9.57 LPA offered to the previous batch. The highest salary offered is 17.3 LPA, which is a 7% increase vis-à-vis the last batch. The institute also witnessed a sharp rise in the number of recruiters, increasing all the way from 50 odd recruiters (as in the previous batch) to a significant 86 recruiters in the current batch, which is a testament to the diverse program being offered that combines academic rigor, industry-wide association, and the young institute’s thrust for excellence.
