The average accepted CTC of Rs. 34.07 lakhs is an increase of 20.78% compared to last year’s average CTC of Rs. 28.21 lakhs during the placement week. Data available with the placement cell also recorded an average salary hike of 173.67% for students who enrolled in the B-School’s PGP course.

With 39% women students, ISB has the distinction of being one of the most gender-inclusive among the leading business schools of India. Female students bagged 41% of the total offers that were made by the recruiters under the placement drive.
Deputy Dean Prof. Ramabhadran Thirumalai said on the occasion, “Established conglomerates and startups alike, have made ISB their campus of choice when scouting for high-quality talent. The PGP at ISB has become eponymous with diversity.” He added, “One of the many reasons recruiters like our students is their ability to get things done.
