IIM Indore and Delhi Technical University (DTU) are both very good institutes for their respective courses. The better option among the two will be DTU if the student is not interested in either the Management course or a tech course. A close senior of mine got a choice between DTU IT course and IPM course in IIM Indore and he decided to go with It course in DTU because: -
| Categories | IPM at IIM Indore | B.Tech in CS at DTU |
| Course Fee | 26 lakh | 7.81 lakh |
| Course Duration | 5 years | 4 years |
| Highest CTC | 25-28 LPA | 15-20 LPA |
| Average CTC | 14 LPA | 8-10 LPA |
| Recruiting Companies | ICICI Bank, Nestle, Asian Paints, American Express, etc. | Capgemini, Wipro, Infosys, IBM, etc. |
The IPM course now has been converted into a degree course, But still, students usually prefer the 4-year B.Tech course rather than the 5-year long IPM course. If you want to study management after your class 12, then IPM will be a good option for you.
CA (Chartered Accountancy) and IPM (Integrated Program in Management) are two different career paths with different job prospects and salaries. CA is a professional degree in accounting and finance and is highly respected and has a well-salaried job in the industry.
A fresher Chartered Accountant in India can earn an average salary of around 7-8 lakhs per annum, and higher with more experience and expertise. On the other hand, IPM is a five-year program offered by IIM Indore that combines undergraduate and postgraduate studies in management. Graduates from this program are generally placed in management roles in various industries, with starting salaries averaging around 10-12 lakhs per annum, and increasing with experience.
The final decision of which career path to pursue depends on your interests, skills, and career goals. Both CA and IPM offer excellent job opportunities and potential for growth. So, choose wisely, All the best buddy!
Social internships are an important part of the IPM program and must be done during the summer break between the second and third years. The goal of the internship is to give students hands-on experience with real social problems and let them use what they've learned in the classroom to make a good difference in the world.
Students picked up social job positions in places like CSR, NGOs, Social Enterprises, Academic Institutions, and Social Activists. The placement season was spread over a few weeks so that the organizations could give the participants a wide range of functional tasks.
One of my friends was selected for the 2018–22 batch of Mechanical engineering. However, she was not very inclined towards joining it. Mainly because she was not very passionate about Engineering.
I will suggest you join TIET only if you are an avid fan of Engineering and are considering it seriously as a career option. But I personally feel that IIM is a better option if you aren’t sure about Engineering. The IIM tag offers enough credibility to make it a worthwhile course.
My friend's marks were not very good so she could not understand how she had made it into TIET. This altered her decision to pursue engineering. She further told me that the curriculum and campus life at IIM Rohtak were not as substandard as it is rumored to be. So it’s high time you conduct thorough research because this decision is the turning point of your life.
One of my friends is a recent alumnus of IIM Indore. He took the IPM exam and here is a brief overview of what he mentioned about the examination.
Hope this helps answer your question.
Maharaja Surajmal institute has one of the best campuses in IPU and the best institute for BBA in IP university. It is one of the top 3 colleges of IPU. I have a few friends at the institute, so I can give you some idea about the course.
With a rank of 2500, you would get in easily in the first counseling itself. With around 55% marks in English in your 12th and a rank of 3000 or below, you should get in the first shift without much problem.
The infrastructure and faculty is average for BBA and the course costs around 2.65 lakhs.
IIM Indore's Integrated Programme in Management (IPM) curriculum includes Humanities as an essential discipline. The traditional mindset considers Humanities as an inferior subject, but the truth is that Humanities subjects like Sociology, Political Science, and Psychology are very useful for Managers. Studying Humanities gives a wider perspective of the world. Nearly every subject nowadays has a “behavioral” aspect to it.
For example, Behavioral Economics and Behavioral Finance are emerging fields where the understanding of human behavior and psychology is applied to economics and finance.
Similarly, studying Sociology gives a perspective on how societies form and work, which might be useful in one's career. Political Science is again a very important subject as it helps understand how governments and institutions work.
It is important to understand that whatever you study might not give you immediate monetary benefit, but that doesn't mean it is not going to help in the long run. No doubt that subjects like Statistics are very important, but running and analyzing plain numbers alone isn’t the key, you always need to have a wider perspective.
The inclusion of Humanities in the IPM curriculum is indeed an advantage that IPM has over other such courses at the undergraduate level. It helps students develop a more holistic view of the world, which is essential for future managers. In nearly every subject course of Humanities, the first class is about ‘why’ managers need that particular Humanities subject. Therefore, it is clear that Humanities is an essential discipline that every aspiring manager needs to study.
IIM Rohtak is a green campus that prioritises environmental safety, and students are not permitted to use vehicles on campus.
During COVID times, IIM Indore restricted the ability of IPM students to commute or even bring vehicles to the campus. Cycles may be permitted depending on the college, but they are currently uncommon at IIM Rohtak.
IMS Ghaziabad University Course Campus is a 31-year-old leading professional institute. The institute has a history of receiving many awards for its excellent contribution in the industry-academia education landscape.

Overall IMS Ghaziabad is an excellent choice as it not only trains you academically but also enhances your personality to perform better in interviews. The institute also conducts developing programs like career counseling, training, and psychometric profiling of students for effective career planning.
Having some of my friends study in both colleges, I can say that enrolling in Shaheed Sukhdev for BMS would be much more apt than that of IIM Rohtak for IPM. Both the colleges hold their places enormously but Shaheed Sukhdev will be better due to their overall educational experience.
There are several reasons for choosing it, some are:
| Categories | IPM at IIM Rohtak | BMS at Shaheed Sukhdev |
| Course Fee | 30.75 lakh | 40,075 |
| Course Duration | 5 years | 3 years |
| Highest CTC | 24 LPA | 19.25 LPA |
| Average CTC | 13 LPA | 8-10 LPA |
| Recruiting Companies | Amazon, Accenture, Berger, Capgemini, etc. | Google, KPMG, Deloitte, EY, etc. |
It is suggested that you choose BMS over IPM. Though, both have their pros and cons but opting for BMS is worth more than IPM. Also, Sukhdev has a great market reputation and placement record. After all, it’s your decision that matters. Think appropriately for yourself. Good Luck.
