With barely a month away from Placement season, Vijay Ahir is exactly where he wants to be… top of his PGP class of 2015 at AIIM! A Civil Engineer by education, Vijay joined Adani Institute of Infrastructure Management after 7 years with Larsen and Toubro. Starting out as a Trainee Engineer in the Technology Services Division of L&T, Vijay ended up handling a number engineering services provided to ‘Fortune 500’ clients of L&T in the US; projects with a CAPEX of 45 million USD to 75 million USD. For 4 years he did this, and life would’ve been pretty much about shuttling between India and California – had it not been for L&T’s in-house training establishment. Vijay was detailed for a 1-year Executive education programme in Finance at IIM, Kozhikode. Their programme involved faculties teaching the participant over video conferencing and visit to IIM-Kozhikode campus for on campus study.. Here for the first time, Ahir was exposed to Finance.

It was the usual hectic office day and with somnolent eyes I boarded the cab back home. Nothing else to do than dosing off, I just switched on my cellphone to check the mail. First mail in the inbox flashed before my eyes, a flash that I can never forget. It read, "Selected for provisional admission at IIFT". My happiness knew no bounds.
“Indian School of Business or ISB, one of the leading business schools of India has again created a solid benchmark with its 2015 PGP Class. Among 831 students all total, 236 seats have been reserved by women only. These stats involve the students from both Hyderabad and Mohali campuses.”
As you read this, the news that the CAT 2015 exam, is going to be conducted on a single day, would be all over the place.
