India's Best Business Schools- Preface

Today, in the world of technology and start-ups, India is becoming a super power when it comes to strategic brilliance, excellence, and innovation. Bright brains of India are getting recognised across the world. Stellar positions in big MNCs are chaired by Indians. At the same time, we are seeing Indian creative and business brains are choosing to walk their own journey of entrepreneurship right out of their teen ages. Seeing the situation, B-schools are also coming up prepared to help these kids getting their dreams come true, without losing the essence of their traditional values through teaching the experienced ones to jump up the ladder.

In addition to the traditional methodology of education, B-schools are coming up with innovative and industry relevant ways of imparting education. Case studies, group presentations, live projects, business simulations, industrial visits are among the creative and experiment learning concepts opted by the schools alongside the traditional theoretical education to make students well prepared to hit the competitive field of work right from the first day. Institutions are providing platforms for young buddying students to interact and gain insights from industry experts.

Keeping the present India in mind where we see MNCs and Indian start-ups rowing in numbers and creating jobs within and outside the country, B-schools are integrating analytical and leadership skills as their prime criteria of selecting candidates for their institutes. Apart from IIMs, we are seeing many private B-schools which are evolving and spreading their presence across different scale of industries by handing over excellent resources for them who can add values in their business.

With an ever-growing number of people registering for CAT, which has now reached to a record breaking number of 2.32 lakhs, it is evident that the awareness and need of management study is getting better every day. However, what really is worrying the mass is the rising fees of these B-schools. Many premier B-schools have improved their infrastructure, quality of education or maintaining the faculty-student ratio to justify the fee, many are even providing need based and academy based scholarship to help the brilliant minds to take higher irrespective of their economic stature. 

In this edition, to help our readers we have come up with a list of premier B-schools with thorough analysis and crucial details to help them select, compare, and decide which B-schools will be apt for them to achieve their career goals. Our internal research team has collected these data over a period of time by visiting these institutes and through rigorous surveys conducted online. In addition to that we have experts sharing their views and stories on different aspects of management and leadership wisdom which will be immensely essential for students to lead their life not only in B-schools but throughout the entire curve of their career trajectory.
