Should you pick EPGP at IIM Indore?

This course suits working people who want to change their role or sector and can take one year off work.

Pick it if:
You want a product or consulting role after years in IT: Accenture, Infosys and Tech Mahindra recruit this course, and product manager and consultant roles top the offer list.
You want a small class where people know you: the 2025-26 batch has 67 students, so every student meets recruiters and faculty up close.
You want a year away from work with room and meals sorted: the fee covers your room and meals on the hilltop campus in Indore.
You are sure about applying this year: apply in Phase 1, because its shortlist comes on 9 Nov 2026 and Phase 2 still stays open after it.
Skip it if:
You expect the fee back in your first year: the average pay of INR 23.5 LPA is below the fee of INR 26.52 Lakhs, as the ROI tile shows.
You are counting on a big jump in pay: the highest offer for the Class of 2025 was INR 36 LPA, so check it against your pay today.
You want to live near a big finance or startup hub: Indore is not one, so most jobs come through campus placement, not walk-in meetings.
You cannot pay more than the fee: the term in Milan adds about INR 5 Lakhs for your stay abroad, and flights and visa are extra.
Counsellor's advice
If your pay today is close to the average pay here, do not resign for the pay alone. If you want a new role such as product or consulting, apply in Phase 1 and keep your job till the offer comes.
EPGP Eligibility
Degree marks: 50% in a bachelor's degree, a master's degree or a five-year integrated course, in any subject.

In short
IIM Ahmedabad costs more but paid about INR 10 LPA more on average and has a bigger batch. If you clear both and can pay the extra fee, take IIM Ahmedabad; if the fee matters more, IIM Indore is the lower-cost seat.
In short
IIM Bangalore has the same batch size but a higher fee and a much higher average pay. If you get offers from both, pick IIM Bangalore for pay; pick IIM Indore only if the lower fee decides it.
In short
IIM Calcutta charged more and paid more on average for the same class year. If your goal is the highest pay and you can fund the gap, apply to IIM Calcutta too; keep IIM Indore as the lower-fee option.
In short
IIM Lucknow's fee is close to IIM Indore's and it includes the stay abroad, with a higher average pay. If you want a one-year course near Delhi, apply to IIM Lucknow as well and compare the two offers.

Fees and pay can change. Check each college site before you decide.

IIM Indore: 9 Answered Questions

Why is there an integrated course of BBA MBA in IIM Indore only?

Bhaskar Das
Darryl ThomasStudied at Indian Institute of Management Indore

At present, IIM Indore is not the only IIM that offers BBA + MBA courses. IIM Indore and IIM Rohtak have been offering the five-year integrated course in MBA for undergraduate students for a few years now.

Which are the top branded institutes/colleges/university in India like IIM Indore IPM for doing dual courses of BBA+MBA after 12th Commerce?

Rohini Mishra
Vihaan SharmaIPM from Indian Institute of Management Rohtak (Graduated 2022)

IPM is a five-year integrated management program that combines either a BBA or BMS with an MBA. Students who want to pursue careers in management and leadership after completing their XIIth or higher secondary education can register for these courses. Only students who are certain of their goals and who are interested in management should enroll in this integrated course because, over the course of five years, they will only learn about business management and how to become the ideal manager.
These integrated programs are unique in that they offer dual degree programs as well. A second entrance exam is not required in order to enroll in a graduate program. To enroll in the course, there is only one entrance exam.
The following list includes some of the top IPM colleges in India along with information on how to apply.

  • IIM Indore launched the IPM program in 2011 for young students who wanted to go into management or leadership after finishing their XII classes. The program's learning objectives are broken down into the first three years of the bachelor's program, and the following two years will follow the PG program's curriculum.
  • IIM Rohtak launched the IPM program in 2019 and was successful in quickly filling 150 seats.

IPMAT is the entrance exam for IPM (as opposed to IPMAT for IIMI), and it has a different exam format and scoring system than IIM I. Following WAT and Interviews at designated IIM R locations, the second round is conducted.

  • The oldest existing university is Mumbai University, which is situated in Mumbai, Maharashtra (1857). With 60 seats available for the course, it offers an integrated management program that divides the first three years into a BMS degree and the final two years into an MBA degree.
  • Following the 12th grade, Jindal Global Business School has developed this innovative and distinctive course of an integrated program that includes BBA(Hons)+MBA and lasts for five years. It is a course that equips students with a global outlook through a special approach to learning and communication. 
Choosing a college wisely has become increasingly important, so students should not only pay attention to the college's physical facilities but also to the curriculum it will use for their semesters. This provides students with a clear picture of the courses they will be taking at that specific college. One thing to keep in mind when reviewing the curriculum is that UG courses shouldn't be repeated in PG courses because this would lessen the integrity of the courses and allow students to observe evolution in them.

For the IPM course of IIM Indore, there is a particular IPM paper that takes place for admission. The format of the paper has changed over the past 3 years. CAT and the IPM exam conducted by the IIM Indore are both different. The format of the IPM paper is as follows:

  • 40 Questions - MCQ - 40 minutes (Verbal Ability) 

Although both CAT and IPM exams are different, the format of both of them is the same. Some short answer-type questions are not MCQ type and are slightly different. Although the maths section is higher than the other section in the exam due to the short answer-type questions, the difficulty level would not be much. The cut-off for Quantitative Ability of the IPM exam is nearly 25-30%, therefore you need to go through a lot of Advanced Mathematics and should practice the CAT level mathematics well. According to the marking scheme, Each correct answer is +4 in the exam, and for the wrong answer, there is -1. This negative marking scheme is not applicable for the short answer questions.

Is IIM Indore doing right by adding courses after courses like IPM, Mumbai Campus and now PGP-HRM?

Swati RajStudied at Indian Institute of Management Indore

Courses like IPM and PGP-HRM are bold, outstanding, and pathbreaking. It took great hard work for the decision-makers to start these courses. However, the amount of success for these completely depends upon the intention.

The real question would be, “Why IPM? Why Mumbai Campus? And why opting for HRM course?”. If the answer to all of these questions is “Money” then whether IIM Indore is doing right or not will depend on the number of admissions, fees, and the ROI.

If the answer to your question is “for a good career”, then the success completely depends upon the faculty, facilities, and placements. Even if the intentions are considered to be good, most government bodies do not take the lead and act from the front. 

It is very confusing to say if the students are too ignorant to believe what they see or if the institutions are providing incorrect information

Is a 4-year tri city BBA course of SPJ better than a 5-year IPM at IIM Indore?

Charu MalikStudied at Integrated Programme in Management, IIM Indore (2021)

IPM does not offer a BBA degree but you will receive a BA degree for your undergrad coursework (Foundations in Management). The subjects taught at the undergraduate level are vastly different from those taught in any other BBA program. Any decision based on an assumption about the IPM curriculum can land you in big trouble.

Returning to the question, I'm not familiar with the specifics of the four-year Tri-City programme, but I'm sure it entails a lot of learning from an institute like SPJ. 

  • Having said that, IPM and the aforementioned course can be compared on the same scale.
  • Two degrees from IIM Indore (one of which is the regular MBA that other PGP participants are entitled to) is an incredible value that cannot be matched by any other BBA programme in the country. 
  • Other benefits include the environment and opportunities that come with being a student at an IIM.

Comparisons can be made when other IIMs launch courses similar to IPM, which does not appear to be happening anytime soon. Until then, IPM would be a clear winner in terms of undergrad management education.
