Should you pick MBA Analytics at IIM Kashipur?
This course suits students who like statistics and want an analytics job after an MBA.
Pick it if:
You did not study engineering: the shortlist score adds marks for discipline diversity, so a commerce or science degree helps you here.
You want to skip a group discussion: there is no group discussion and no written test, so the interview is the only round after the shortlist.
You want the fee back fast: the last batch averaged INR 14.95 LPA against a full fee of INR 19.91 Lakhs, so the ROI tile reads 75%.
You need the fee cut to afford it: 23 students a year get a full tuition waiver if the family income is up to INR 5 Lakhs.
Skip it if:
You are counting on last year's percentile: the General close moved up from 92 in 2024 to 96.25 in 2025, so an old number is not safe.
You want a big-city campus: Kashipur is a small town and almost all hiring happens on campus, not through walk-ins in the city.
You will start the form only in March: the institute window opens in January and shuts in early March, and a late form is not taken.
You want a general management degree: statistics and machine learning sit in the core here, so the maths load stays high for two years.
Counsellor's advice
If your family income is up to INR 5 Lakhs, ask for the fee waiver in the same admission form, because it is not a separate application. If you miss only the sectional close, fix that one section before the next attempt.

Category
General, overall percentile
96.25 and above: yes, you clear the gate. Your shortlist score then decides the interview call.

EDITOR'S NOTE
A percentile only gets you past the first gate. In the shortlist score CAT carries 20 marks while Class 10, Class 12 and degree marks carry 40 together, so school marks decide many calls here.

In short
IIM Raipur costs more but pays much better and sits eight places higher in NIRF. If both call you, take IIM Raipur; if only this seat comes, take it and do not wait a year.
In short
IIM Ranchi is cheaper and pays more, so its money case is the stronger one. If your percentile clears both, pick IIM Ranchi; if it clears only this course, take this seat.
In short
IIM Tiruchirappalli charges a little less, pays more and ranks seven places higher. If you want the analytics core rather than a general MBA, this seat still fits you better.
In short
IIM Udaipur costs more and pays more, so the money case is close between the two. If you want statistics and machine learning in the core, take this seat.
Fees and pay can change. Check each college site before you decide.

IIM Kashipur: 2 Answered Questions
Can you give me an insight on the MBA Analytics course of IIM Kashipur? Any info on future prospects and relevance would be helpful?
Yash AroraMBA in Business Analytics, Indian Institute of Management Kashipur (Graduated 2022)
IIM Kashipur began offering a new MBA (Analytics) program in 2020.
As a result, the course is structured so that the first year focuses on management learning and the second year on analytics concepts. In the first year, the course curriculum includes standard MBA subjects such as finance, marketing, operations, analytics, and human resources. The second year is devoted to analytics topics. Aside from that, there are a variety of electives to choose from in both general management and analytics subjects, depending on one's interests. Both programmes share the hostel and other campus facilities.
Finally, you must consider the program's relevance. And, as all companies focus on data in the coming years, the course will be very relevant in the future.
In terms of future prospects. If you do well, you will have a bright future regardless of whether you specialise in finance, marketing, or analytics. So, if you perform well and gain the necessary knowledge, it will not be difficult to find good jobs.
How useful is the Business Analytics and Big Data certificate programme from IIM Kashipur?
Radhika Sharan22+ years of experience as professional, educator, trainer
Mushrooms of institutes are attempting to capitalize on Analytics success stories with little ability to truly enhance students' ability to apply analytics or obtain higher packages or analytics profiles for experienced professionals. The majority of facilities want to complete the curriculum rather than educate students.
You are advised to enroll in any courses that will cost you a lot of money and will ruin years of earnings for working professionals.
