    Kolkata, the capital city of the State of Bengal, is home to several educational industries. The city has several MBA colleges, including IIMs, IIFT, IISWBM, XBS, IEM, state government universities, and other colleges established by public and private institutions. India's first IIM was started in Kolkata in 1956, was one of the first institutes offering MBA degrees in South Asia.

    With the wide variety of expertise teaching from world-class professors, running full-time MBA programs is a significant expense for  business schools. Despite all costs of studying for an MBA typically come with a significant return on investment, it makes MBAs the most expensive program in the world. However, in a country like India, the State has the responsibility to make policies for its citizens and to access affordable education in higher education. Since India is a socialist country and then transformed into a mixed economy by encouraging private actors in education. The efforts of the public and private institutions in education have made education affordable for all sections of Kolkata.
