The 229% increase in the salaries accrued by the students of the ISB, can be compared with the other top-notch institutions. ISB‘s giant leap to become the front-runner meant that they have left institutions like Harvard, Wharton Stanford behind. Compared to the Indian Business School’s 229% increase in salaries, Harvard witnessed a 112 % rise in post-MBA salaries while that is 121%, 117%, and 127% in cases of Wharton, Stanford, and Columbia respectively.

ISB Tops the Global List in Pre to Post Salary: Reasons Behind

Talking about the reasons why ISB has gradually improved its rank over the last three years, Ramabhadran Thirumalai, the deputy dean of the academic program has charted out several factors behind its improvement -

  • ISB has appointed several new faculty members to develop their academic credentials in the last few years. This includes the 18 faculty members they included in their various departments in 2018-2019.

  • The appointment and involvement of the global faculty have become much easier in recent days and these developments have helped the Indian School of Business to increase the quality of its courses.

  • The career advancement team of the Indian School of Business was able to bring new companies for the placement drive. This not only helped to solve the hiring issues but also put the institution in the higher ranks regarding placements as well in the Financial Times’s global list of Financial Times.

  • The involvement of foreign students has helped to evolve the ranking system

  • The better Alumni network as well as alumni engagement and Career services has helped ISB to gain this prestigious designation.

  • Compared to the placement drive of last year, when 324 companies made 1609 offers including 31 international ones, the numbers of companies that took interest in the students of ISB rose to 405 in 2024. This helped the ISB to gain the top spot, regarding the increase in post-MBA salaries with 229%, the highest among the 100 B-schools on the global list, prepared by Financial Times.

  • This year companies like McKinsey, Nagaroo, and Navi Technologies hired over 20 students each, as 80% of the cohort secured packages of around INR 35 LPA.
