Awesome. A correction ,the name of the firm is "ZS Associates" and not "Z S Associates" It was wonderful article. Do you guys have any idea on the compensation that was offered by the Consulting companies that give a Full Time offer at IIMB ?Any approximate ball park range would be highly appreciated. Also I noticed that there were no statistics on number of students placed at each firms.Could you also provide a range for that (at least by function,at least for Consulting : )) One request : Could you guys also publish an article on summer internship recruiting at IIM A B C .Who are offered interviews.What are the criteria.Conversion into FT percentages etc. Thanks

The top tier consulting firms mentioned in the above list offer anything between 20 LPA and 25 LPA. Regarding number of offers made: McKinsey - 8, BCG - 12, Bain - 6, A T Kearney - 9, Booz - 2. Among others Accenture made 12 offers while Deloitte made 14 offers. All these are strategy consulting roles. This year Accenture made the highest offer among domestic consulting offers. But that is because it made 'Consultant' offer at IIMB as against the usual 'Analyst' roles. to the best of my knowledge, Accenture made Consultant roles only at IIMB and ISB. Regarding PPO conversions at IIMB, it were the best among all IIMs.. McKinsey 5/6, BCG 7/8, Bain 3/3, A T Kearney 5/5.

Thank you.Does that mean that 8 hired by Mckinsey includes 5 PPO offers ?or total comes out to be 13 ?

24 Mar 2012, 01.18 AM |

Rajesh

It includes the 5 PPOs as well. So basically 8 students from the Class of 2012 will be joining McKinsey this year. Similarly BCG - 12 ( 7 + 5), ATK 9 ( 5 + 4) so on and so forth.

@Rajesh - Thanks for all the info. I assume you are from IIM Bangalore Placement Committee. Are you PGP1/PGP2? If you can give this kind of data to InsideIIM guys why can't IIM B publish an official report in this format? This is a much more relevant way of presenting placement information than even IIM A's "CRISIL audited" report. @PeopleatInsideIIM - You guys need to get IIM Ahmedabad to give report in this form too!

I am a proud member of IIM Bangalore - Class of 2012. :) Well, point worth pondering over. However, the IIMB report which will be up on the website will be as exhaustive as this. Not sure about the format though. But a good point. Regarding IIMA's report format - Its a good tool to gauge the placement trends at B-Schools. However in its present form, it just talks about salary. It is very difficult to figure out which companies offered what kind of profiles. Yet, I am big fan of IIMA's IPRS.

Hyundai picked 2 BTechs from IITM and is paying them for their MBA/Mtech(their choice) for their Bluewave program. So the 1 campus from India part is certainly not true.

The fourteen students who secured offers from Deloitte at IIMB had salaries between 17 and 20 LPA including joining bonus of 2 lakhs. The figures are moreorless the same at IIMA and IIMC. I am not sure if Deloitte offers differential packages at other B-Schools.

23 Mar 2012, 02.36 PM |

Saurabh

Dont tell lie here. I am very much aware of the packages offered. It is 10 to 12lpa only. Till last year, it used to offer higher packages in the range of 15 to 20. But not this year.

23 Mar 2012, 03.15 PM |

Team InsideIIM

We request you to stop this discussion on salary numbers. It is always debatable how it is calculated. The utility of this platform will get diluted with statements like &quot;Dont lie....&quot;. Since average salary numbers have not been reported, please dont have any discussion around it. Your co-operation will be appreciated.

23 Mar 2012, 05.27 PM |

Rajesh

@ Saurabh: I am not sure which institute you belong to. Mostly IIM Calcutta, mostly from your replies. In that case I am surprised that Deloitte offered only 10 to 12 LPA at your campus. Just for your information, Deloitte has a standard package at top institutes (at least at IIMB and IIML for sure) Fixed + Variable of around 13.5 - 14 LPA, Joining bonus of 2 LPA + 1 LPA for every year of relevant work experience. Laterals at IIMB means you need to have at least 22 months of work experience. Most people who made it to Deloitte this year (like every year) had 3-5 years of work experience. You can calculate for yourself what the salary packages look like. @Team InsideIIM: These details were declared by the company people to all students (at IIMB) during the PPT. It has nothing to do with IIMB or its official stand of not sharing any salary details. Someone is accusing me of lying, hence the reply. btw, the above information is easily verifiable from other relevant sources.

23 Mar 2012, 07.16 PM |

Rajesh

Apologies: Fixed + Variable + Joining Bonus = 14.06 LPA to be precise; 1 LPA for every year of relevant work experience. So if you have 4 years of relevant work experience, your annual package is 18.06 LPA. This was communicated in the PPT. Let me know if you have any further questions.

23 Mar 2012, 07.33 PM |

Saurabh

Not from the prestigious ABC, but from SJMSOM and gathered all this information from my friends at ABC.

23 Mar 2012, 07.43 PM |

Rajesh

Then all I can say is that you have been given wrong information. Check with your friends in B and I am sure they will be able to tell you the exact figures (the ones above)

23 Mar 2012, 08.00 PM |

Saurabh

May be it is the same policy of non-disclosure.

23 Mar 2012, 08.37 PM |

IITM

Just a query. Isn&#039;t Joining bonus a one time payment? Is it fair to include it in the annual salary? Do a lot of companies do that?

24 Mar 2012, 01.26 PM |

Saurabh

It is unfair to include joining bonus in annual salary shown at campuses. It is a one time component. On top of that some companies include joining bonus even though it is paid in two years time. All these are rubbish HR practices developed to attract better talent. Almost all companies do this, be it accenture which includes some 4 to 5 lakh joining bonus in its salary to make it look worthy.

24 Mar 2012, 03.25 PM |

Rajesh

Its best to quote salaries payable by companies in a given financial year. I don&#039;t see including joining bonus as part of annual package as a completely wrong-thing. After all, the company pays the bonus in cash. As far as it being a one-time component - I guess there are yearly increments which invariably everyone gets after one year of completion/ annual appraisals. These are part of subsequent year&#039;s pay package which of course do not get reflected in the first year. My point, all that you get in cash should certainly be included in the package. However, it is best to report the salary figures in a standardised form like IPRS or even for that matter in the western standards.

24 Mar 2012, 06.13 PM |

Insider

Hi, the salary figures you have quoted is correct....but in many campuses, say a guy with 3 years workex in IT is considered as having 1 year relevant work experience for S&amp;O and so on..correct me if I am wrong..

25 Mar 2012, 07.02 AM |

Rajesh

Quite possible... But the ones who made it to S &amp; O from B were mostly from manufacturing/operations/marketing background (in terms of work ex). So those guys full credit for their work ex... Other campuses, I am not sure...

25 Mar 2012, 10.10 AM |

Akshat

You are right my friend. Deloitte has offered 10-12 lpa at ABC.

29 Mar 2012, 12.13 AM |

A few more points 1. Accenture offered consultant profiles at IIM A and C as well. 2. Duferco made offer at IIM C also. Check out its placement reports. 3. Why didnt you mention about average and other salary figures? IIM a has an average between 22 and 27 lpa this year(as per reports in media)

Rajesh

1) No one at IIM A or C bagged a consultant profile (Though Accenture offers the consultant profiles at every campus, however rarely anyone makes the cut) . It depends upon your prior work experience and that too relevant. To the best of knowledge, people at A, C, XLRI, FMS got Analyst profile. If you are sure about people getting consultant profiles at other campuses, then it must be. I have written what I got to know from others, which may not be true. 2) Duferco participated at IIMC, but did not make any offer. In campus placements at least, only two such offers were made; one at IIMB and other at IIFT. 3) Beyond the control of the placement committee. It is an institute decision not to diclose salary details. I for one wish IIMB makes the figures public. Regarding IIMA&#039;s average figures - these are the average figures for the top consulting firms as published by some media houses. Wait for their CRISIL audited report. You will get to know the real salaries.

23 Mar 2012, 02.34 PM |

Saurabh

1. May be true. 2. No. One got through Duferco from IIM C, but got PPO after that from an investment bank where he had interned. So not planning to join Duferco.

@Saurabh - IIM Calcutta report should be up on Tuesday. Let&#039;s keep this controversy away till then. We promise to edit the &#039;exclusivity&#039; statement in case it is brought to our notice by official sources.

25 Mar 2012, 04.21 PM

GS, DB, MS - all offered overseas postings through the PPO route as far as I know... Most I-Banks offers either IBD (M &amp; A, Corporate Advisory, IPO etc) or Markets roles (Sales, Trading , Equity research) at ABC. Hope that answers your query... Btw, a good show by IIMB especially in consulting.

We publish the reports as soon as we can. It depends on whether we get the data in our desired format. Not all Institutes are very comfortable doing that (Even the best) because there are a lot of cracks which need papering. Somehow in India we are not yet comfortable in being transparent. We will only be covering the institutes featured on this website for now. We will be adding more institutions in June 2012.

Accenture offered a &#039;consultant&#039; role at IIMA &amp; IIMC too- at C as a PPO. The &#039;exclusivity&#039; part is hardly valid for most top companies recruiting at ABC. In spite of that these institutes (including mine-IIMA) continue to claim these on grounds of trivial technicality. It must also be said here that IIMA is the only institute amongst ABC that allows its students to take multiple offers signing out. Both B and C make you sign out of finals when you get one offer. Anyway, it has been a good show by B- slowly catching up with A &amp; C.

Dear Wimwian 2012.... What a shame of WIMWI you are...... Have you ever bothered to read the IIMA placement reports for the last two three years? This year - Did it even mention that Credit Suisse, World Quant or Roland Berger recruit exclusively from IIMA? Yet you are saying IIMA claims exclusivity of companies... Shame dude! I doubt you are from IIMA... Infact your post suggests that you are from the usual third ranked IIM.... Anyway, its fine with me either way.... Nevertheless..... the difference between A and B lies in the day zero companies.... And the more number of exclusive companies a campus gets (among top recruiters), the stronger the placements look like... And yes, B did a fantastic job this year..... Relative to A, how did B perform - let me not comment upon this.. the junta here is smart enough.... Regarding B catching up with A.... Well, Lata Mangeshkar and Asha Bhonsle - both are unique and world class... However Lata is &#039;perceived&#039; to be better than Asha and will always be... Bhai, A and B ka relation kuch waisa hi hain... and waisa hi rahega... ;) Btw, Asha is my more favourite than Lata ;)

As per the pre-placement talk, its a global leadership programme that was offered at only two campuses this year viz. IIMB and ISB... The role includes one year&#039;s stint in India and one year in Germany after which the candidates could be posted in any of Siemens Offices across the globe.... (but mostly Germany)... There are very few B-Schools in Asia where this role was offered... Insead and HKUST I am aware of...

Of course the comparison is among IIMs... The point is the company offered the role at IIMB among IIMs. Besides, the grade offered at ISB is for relatively senior people which is what makes a completely different category. So technically, the role offered at IIMB was an exclusive one, my friend.

16 Apr 2012, 09.43 AM

Not really! Both graduates of IIM B and ISB would be starting at the same level since it&#039;s a global program. Anyway, the role was offered at IIM C as well - though the process couldn&#039;t be concluded before the final placements. @Team InsideIIM: Request you to correct the misleading statements.

Side note:- You IIMB fellows dwarf like nothing before NIT allahabad friend Jalan who bagged 1.34 crore package and many from NITK bagged 20 to 25 lakhs in microsoft , probably 10.

Guys, Do you Sloan school, they have awesome placements. Do you mean to say that IIMBBBB is greater that sloan. The knowledge creation of Sloan is phenomenal. IIMB professors are big cheats who is fooling around HRD ministry. What they have only students of 10% who perform well,which needs to be accepted. Other fellows don&#039;t do knowledge creation work and simply come there to say that I am also IIM. I have not seen one MIT sloan guy saying that they are great. Look at their lab for financial engineering, IIMB toattract and do such a pioneering work will take one century.. If at all people are coming, it is superficial name that IIMB has. NIT trichy faculty floated proposal for UKERI project along with other B schools, including IIMB. They got selected to improve everything of SMB segment to create more wealth. They are going to work with university Burnell for 30 months. See the contribution to the nation that they are making. NIT trichy is saying around the world we are equal to Sloan+ Harvard + etc..

R Sridhar - My dear friend, vomiting about NITs doing n number of things to build nation and research itself speaks volumes about your desperation, hunger for attention and lack of complete knowledge. Exclaiming about pay packets is not something that we do. Before you start building any opinions about my comments, let me tell you a brief intro. This is coming to you from a NIT + IIMB alumnus. NITH 2006 &amp; IIMB 2012 to be exact. Now coming to some facts: 1. IIMB is the only B School which was started with the vision of building India with respect to churning out high potential managers for Public Sector Undertakings, which were once (many still remain) the only building blocks of a developing India). IIMB started giving normal PGPs only in early 1990s (founded 1973) 2. IIMB, or for that matter any established IIM does NOT declare maximum salaries as a POLICY MATTER. Only IIMA &amp; C report median salaries. IIMB does not disclose any salary details, as they are not a true representation. 3. As for knowledge creation, Harvard will soon be distributing cases written by IIMB faculty &amp; students of various programs (PGP, FPM etc). A link is reproduced below: http://www.iimb.ernet.in/node/2479 4. As for the RTIs, IIMB was the first one to respond to RTI queries raised about its selection process. First-hand account of how an aspirant got the most PROMPT reply can be found at: http://www.ankit9doshi.com/dope-on-b-schools-in-india-mba-1/rti-reply-by-iim-bangalore Also, for your information, I will help to facilitate any RTI queries that you would want to file. Please go to this website to file your RTI : http://www.rtination.com/ For your information, this website and business is a start-up of an IIM Bangalore alumnus who happens to be my batch mate! 4. You hardly seem to know about the scope of work offered to IIMB graduates by the way you are bullshiting roles offered by Hyundai &amp; IT consulting companies. So it’s better not to talk about them (I can get my friends who are working in these roles to counsel you, if you please) And by the way, which research work of IIMB or any other IIM have you gone through that makes you say "Your crappy IIMB stinks without any high quality research."? Please do let me know.

Why your superb junior staff of Harvard in IIMB did not come with this RTI idea and see to it becomes act... Propbaly would be IIM&#039;s will do it right Dont crap bull shit.. Creativity:- PURA has come from APJ Kalam and he also developed a blue print sort to connect rivers and tributaries, which Honorable CM of TN has given final shape and mopped entire finance as separate country doing it by TN itself like many. Why IIM has not developed any great concept like zero poverty theory.

Regarding PPO conversions at IIMB, it were the best among all IIMs.. McKinsey 5/6, BCG 7/8, Bain 3/3, A T Kearney 5/5.

Thank you.Does that mean that 8 hired by Mckinsey includes 5 PPO offers ?or total comes out to be 13 ?

24 Mar 2012, 01.18 AM |

Rajesh

It includes the 5 PPOs as well. So basically 8 students from the Class of 2012 will be joining McKinsey this year. Similarly BCG - 12 ( 7 + 5), ATK 9 ( 5 + 4) so on and so forth.

@Rajesh - Thanks for all the info. I assume you are from IIM Bangalore Placement Committee. Are you PGP1/PGP2? If you can give this kind of data to InsideIIM guys why can&#039;t IIM B publish an official report in this format? This is a much more relevant way of presenting placement information than even IIM A&#039;s &quot;CRISIL audited&quot; report. @PeopleatInsideIIM - You guys need to get IIM Ahmedabad to give report in this form too!

I am a proud member of IIM Bangalore - Class of 2012. :) Well, point worth pondering over. However, the IIMB report which will be up on the website will be as exhaustive as this. Not sure about the format though. But a good point. Regarding IIMA&#039;s report format - Its a good tool to gauge the placement trends at B-Schools. However in its present form, it just talks about salary. It is very difficult to figure out which companies offered what kind of profiles. Yet, I am big fan of IIMA&#039;s IPRS.

The fourteen students who secured offers from Deloitte at IIMB had salaries between 17 and 20 LPA including joining bonus of 2 lakhs. The figures are moreorless the same at IIMA and IIMC. I am not sure if Deloitte offers differential packages at other B-Schools.

23 Mar 2012, 02.36 PM |

Dont tell lie here. I am very much aware of the packages offered. It is 10 to 12lpa only. Till last year, it used to offer higher packages in the range of 15 to 20. But not this year.

We request you to stop this discussion on salary numbers. It is always debatable how it is calculated. The utility of this platform will get diluted with statements like &quot;Dont lie....&quot;. Since average salary numbers have not been reported, please dont have any discussion around it. Your co-operation will be appreciated.

23 Mar 2012, 05.27 PM |

Rajesh

@ Saurabh: I am not sure which institute you belong to. Mostly IIM Calcutta, mostly from your replies. In that case I am surprised that Deloitte offered only 10 to 12 LPA at your campus. Just for your information, Deloitte has a standard package at top institutes (at least at IIMB and IIML for sure) Fixed + Variable of around 13.5 - 14 LPA, Joining bonus of 2 LPA + 1 LPA for every year of relevant work experience. Laterals at IIMB means you need to have at least 22 months of work experience. Most people who made it to Deloitte this year (like every year) had 3-5 years of work experience. You can calculate for yourself what the salary packages look like. @Team InsideIIM: These details were declared by the company people to all students (at IIMB) during the PPT. It has nothing to do with IIMB or its official stand of not sharing any salary details. Someone is accusing me of lying, hence the reply. btw, the above information is easily verifiable from other relevant sources.

23 Mar 2012, 07.16 PM |

Rajesh

Apologies: Fixed + Variable + Joining Bonus = 14.06 LPA to be precise; 1 LPA for every year of relevant work experience. So if you have 4 years of relevant work experience, your annual package is 18.06 LPA. This was communicated in the PPT. Let me know if you have any further questions.

Just a query. Isn&#039;t Joining bonus a one time payment? Is it fair to include it in the annual salary? Do a lot of companies do that?

24 Mar 2012, 01.26 PM |

Saurabh

It is unfair to include joining bonus in annual salary shown at campuses. It is a one time component. On top of that some companies include joining bonus even though it is paid in two years time. All these are rubbish HR practices developed to attract better talent. Almost all companies do this, be it accenture which includes some 4 to 5 lakh joining bonus in its salary to make it look worthy.

24 Mar 2012, 03.25 PM |

Rajesh

Its best to quote salaries payable by companies in a given financial year. I don&#039;t see including joining bonus as part of annual package as a completely wrong-thing. After all, the company pays the bonus in cash. As far as it being a one-time component - I guess there are yearly increments which invariably everyone gets after one year of completion/ annual appraisals. These are part of subsequent year&#039;s pay package which of course do not get reflected in the first year. My point, all that you get in cash should certainly be included in the package. However, it is best to report the salary figures in a standardised form like IPRS or even for that matter in the western standards.

24 Mar 2012, 06.13 PM |

Insider

Hi, the salary figures you have quoted is correct....but in many campuses, say a guy with 3 years workex in IT is considered as having 1 year relevant work experience for S&amp;O and so on..correct me if I am wrong..

25 Mar 2012, 07.02 AM |

Quite possible... But the ones who made it to S &amp; O from B were mostly from manufacturing/operations/marketing background (in terms of work ex). So those guys full credit for their work ex... Other campuses, I am not sure...

A few more points 1. Accenture offered consultant profiles at IIM A and C as well. 2. Duferco made offer at IIM C also. Check out its placement reports. 3. Why didnt you mention about average and other salary figures? IIM a has an average between 22 and 27 lpa this year(as per reports in media)

1) No one at IIM A or C bagged a consultant profile (Though Accenture offers the consultant profiles at every campus, however rarely anyone makes the cut) . It depends upon your prior work experience and that too relevant. To the best of knowledge, people at A, C, XLRI, FMS got Analyst profile. If you are sure about people getting consultant profiles at other campuses, then it must be. I have written what I got to know from others, which may not be true. 2) Duferco participated at IIMC, but did not make any offer. In campus placements at least, only two such offers were made; one at IIMB and other at IIFT. 3) Beyond the control of the placement committee. It is an institute decision not to diclose salary details. I for one wish IIMB makes the figures public. Regarding IIMA&#039;s average figures - these are the average figures for the top consulting firms as published by some media houses. Wait for their CRISIL audited report. You will get to know the real salaries.

23 Mar 2012, 02.34 PM |

1. May be true. 2. No. One got through Duferco from IIM C, but got PPO after that from an investment bank where he had interned. So not planning to join Duferco.

We publish the reports as soon as we can. It depends on whether we get the data in our desired format. Not all Institutes are very comfortable doing that (Even the best) because there are a lot of cracks which need papering. Somehow in India we are not yet comfortable in being transparent. We will only be covering the institutes featured on this website for now. We will be adding more institutions in June 2012.

Accenture offered a &#039;consultant&#039; role at IIMA &amp; IIMC too- at C as a PPO. The &#039;exclusivity&#039; part is hardly valid for most top companies recruiting at ABC. In spite of that these institutes (including mine-IIMA) continue to claim these on grounds of trivial technicality. It must also be said here that IIMA is the only institute amongst ABC that allows its students to take multiple offers signing out. Both B and C make you sign out of finals when you get one offer. Anyway, it has been a good show by B- slowly catching up with A &amp; C.

Dear Wimwian 2012.... What a shame of WIMWI you are...... Have you ever bothered to read the IIMA placement reports for the last two three years? This year - Did it even mention that Credit Suisse, World Quant or Roland Berger recruit exclusively from IIMA? Yet you are saying IIMA claims exclusivity of companies... Shame dude! I doubt you are from IIMA... Infact your post suggests that you are from the usual third ranked IIM.... Anyway, its fine with me either way.... Nevertheless..... the difference between A and B lies in the day zero companies.... And the more number of exclusive companies a campus gets (among top recruiters), the stronger the placements look like... And yes, B did a fantastic job this year..... Relative to A, how did B perform - let me not comment upon this.. the junta here is smart enough.... Regarding B catching up with A.... Well, Lata Mangeshkar and Asha Bhonsle - both are unique and world class... However Lata is &#039;perceived&#039; to be better than Asha and will always be... Bhai, A and B ka relation kuch waisa hi hain... and waisa hi rahega... ;) Btw, Asha is my more favourite than Lata ;)

As per the pre-placement talk, its a global leadership programme that was offered at only two campuses this year viz. IIMB and ISB...

Of course the comparison is among IIMs... The point is the company offered the role at IIMB among IIMs. Besides, the grade offered at ISB is for relatively senior people which is what makes a completely different category. So technically, the role offered at IIMB was an exclusive one, my friend.

Not really! Both graduates of IIM B and ISB would be starting at the same level since it&#039;s a global program.

IIMB professors are big cheats who is fooling around HRD ministry. What they have only students of 10% who perform well,which needs to be accepted. Other fellows don&#039;t do knowledge creation work and simply come there to say that I am also IIM. I have not seen one MIT sloan guy saying that they are great. Look at their lab for financial engineering, IIMB toattract and do such a pioneering work will take one century.. If at all people are coming, it is superficial name that IIMB has. NIT trichy faculty floated proposal for UKERI project along with other B schools, including IIMB. They got selected to improve everything of SMB segment to create more wealth. They are going to work with university Burnell for 30 months. See the contribution to the nation that they are making. NIT trichy is saying around the world we are equal to Sloan+ Harvard + etc..

R Sridhar - My dear friend, vomiting about NITs doing n number of things to build nation and research itself speaks volumes about your desperation, hunger for attention and lack of complete knowledge. Exclaiming about pay packets is not something that we do. Before you start building any opinions about my comments, let me tell you a brief intro. This is coming to you from a NIT + IIMB alumnus. NITH 2006 &amp; IIMB 2012 to be exact. Now coming to some facts: 1. IIMB is the only B School which was started with the vision of building India with respect to churning out high potential managers for Public Sector Undertakings, which were once (many still remain) the only building blocks of a developing India). IIMB started giving normal PGPs only in early 1990s (founded 1973) 2. IIMB, or for that matter any established IIM does NOT declare maximum salaries as a POLICY MATTER. Only IIMA &amp; C report median salaries. IIMB does not disclose any salary details, as they are not a true representation. 3. As for knowledge creation, Harvard will soon be distributing cases written by IIMB faculty &amp; students of various programs (PGP, FPM etc). A link is reproduced below: http://www.iimb.ernet.in/node/2479 4. As for the RTIs, IIMB was the first one to respond to RTI queries raised about its selection process. First-hand account of how an aspirant got the most PROMPT reply can be found at: http://www.ankit9doshi.com/dope-on-b-schools-in-india-mba-1/rti-reply-by-iim-bangalore Also, for your information, I will help to facilitate any RTI queries that you would want to file. Please go to this website to file your RTI : http://www.rtination.com/ For your information, this website and business is a start-up of an IIM Bangalore alumnus who happens to be my batch mate! 4. You hardly seem to know about the scope of work offered to IIMB graduates by the way you are bullshiting roles offered by Hyundai &amp; IT consulting companies. So it’s better not to talk about them (I can get my friends who are working in these roles to counsel you, if you please) And by the way, which research work of IIMB or any other IIM have you gone through that makes you say "Your crappy IIMB stinks without any high quality research."? Please do let me know.

Why IIM has not developed any great concept like zero poverty theory.
