It's a fact - consulting is, by some margin, the most sought-after domain at most Indian b-schools; you see this in the placement reports, and you see it in surveys. But from amongst, probably, thousands, which firms are the most desirable? Based on responses to our latest recruitment survey, we've listed out what MBA students think are the top consulting firms to work with.

MBB continue to be the top consulting firms, two Tata companies in the top ten
McKinsey, BCG, Bain — the 'holy trinity' of consulting firms are right on top, in that sequence. These firms have never slipped out of the top-three and are dream recruiters at even top global b-schools. The MBB firms are followed by Accenture, which hires in big numbers at leading Indian b-schools, including the top IIMs. Kearney completes the top-five.
The big four also make it to the top-ten, with Deloitte, KPMG, EY and PwC appearing in the rankings in that sequence (as was the case last year). Also like last year, two Tata companies feature in the big leagues, with TSMG and TCS sharing the tenth spot. They're also the only two Indian firms to feature in the top-ten.
