Should you pick MBA Finance at Ramaiah Institute of Technology?
This course suits students who want a low-cost government seat for a finance career in Bangalore.
Pick it if:
You have a strong PGCET rank: a government quota seat here costs INR 1.72 Lakhs for two years, against INR 7.56 Lakhs on a management seat.
You want finance work beyond a bank branch: the department has MoUs with EY GSS and MCX, a commodity exchange, and Bangalore has many finance offices.
You are not sure Finance alone is enough: you can take a dual specialisation and pair Finance with Marketing, HR or Business Analytics.
You want the fee back fast: at the median pay of INR 6.1 LPA, the government quota fee comes back inside the first working year.
Skip it if:
You are counting on a top package: the median was INR 6.1 LPA against a highest offer of INR 17.3 LPA, so most students earn near the median.
You want a large Finance batch: the MBA has 120 seats shared by four specialisations, so the Finance group is one part of a small batch.
Your rank is far below the General close: the 2025 General close was 386, so a much weaker rank may only get a management seat at INR 7.56 Lakhs.
You want a campus built only for management: this is an engineering institute first, and the MBA is one department that started in 1998.
Counsellor's advice
If your PGCET rank is 386 or better, list this college high in option entry and do not pay for a management seat. If your rank is much weaker, check the management fee against the median pay first.
