SIBM MBA FAQs
Ques. Is MAH-MBA/MMS-CET mandatory for admission to MBA Financial Management at SIBM Sudumbare, or can I apply with CAT/MAT scores?
Ans. MAH-MBA/MMS-CET (MAHCET) is the primary and mandatory exam for admission through the CAP (Centralized Admission Process) in Maharashtra, which covers the majority of seats at SIBM Sudumbare. If you have a valid CAT, MAT, XAT, CMAT, or ATMA score, you may be considered for institute-level or management quota seats (against CAP vacancy), but these are limited in number. For the best chance of admission, it is strongly recommended to appear in MAHCET. The second attempt for MAHCET 2026 is scheduled on May 9, 2026, so students who missed the first attempt can still register.
Ques. What is the actual total fee for the MBA Financial Management program at SIBM Sudumbare, and are there any hidden charges?
Ans. The FRA-approved total fee for AY 2025-26 is Rs. 86,000 per year for Open category students, making the total 2-year fee Rs. 1,72,000. This includes tuition fee (Rs. 76,855) and development fee (Rs. 9,145) per year. There are no hidden charges beyond this for the academic program. However, the college has proposed a fee of Rs. 1,04,103 per year for AY 2026-27, which is pending FRA approval - so students joining in 2026 should confirm the final approved fee at the time of admission. Hostel charges are separate and not included in the above fee.

Ans. Approximately 60-76% of MBA students get placed through campus recruitment drives. The highest salary package offered has been around Rs. 8 LPA, while the average package is in the range of Rs. 2-4 LPA. Key recruiters include companies from the manufacturing and automotive sector given the college's proximity to the MIDC Chakan industrial belt, including names like Lear, HP, Tata, and Mahindra. Roles offered are primarily in finance, HR, marketing, and operations. Students are advised to also leverage the institute's industry connections for internships, which can significantly improve placement prospects.

EBC (Economically Backward Class) students from the Open category with family income below Rs. 8 lakh can get partial fee concession.

Ques. The college is located in Sudumbare near Chakan - is it well-connected, and is the location a concern for students coming from Pune city?
Ans. SIBM Sudumbare is located on the Chakan-Talegaon Road, near the Chakan Auto Hub, which is approximately 25-30 km from Pune city. The college provides a bus transportation facility covering areas up to 25-50 km range, which helps students commute from Pune, Pimpri-Chinchwad, Talegaon, and nearby areas. The location is actually an advantage for MBA students as the MIDC Chakan industrial belt hosts hundreds of manufacturing companies (automotive, engineering, pharma), providing excellent opportunities for industrial visits, internships, and placements. Students from outside Pune can opt for the on-campus hostel facility.
