While the highest domestic package offered more than doubled to INR 48.58 LPA, the

registering a growth of 30.5 percent and 28.4 percent YoY, respectively. Further, the
average domestic package of the batch’s top 25, 50, and 75 percentile stands strong at
21.93 LPA, 18.92 LPA, and 17.29 LPA, respectively.

Quoting these numbers, Prof. Sabyasachi Mohapatra, heading the Career Development Cell
at IIM Bodh Gaya, added, “As an institute of national importance, we understand the
sensitivity of the placement information, and hence, during the past years, we initiated the
practice of auditing our placement reports to enable aspiring professionals and students
make better and informed decisions while selecting our esteemed institute in their career
building process. IIM Bodh Gaya’s placement reports are audited by an external agency and
are prepared according to the Indian Placement Reporting Standards (IPRS) aimed at
standardizing the placement reports to be transparent, analogous, and trustworthy for
decision-making. IIM Bodh Gaya is only one of the six IIMs to follow the strict IPRS
standards.”

Head of the Institute, Dr. Vinita S. Sahay, Director IIM Bodh Gaya, congratulated the Career
Development Team for achieving this marvelous feat and subsequently thanked all the
recruiters for reposing their faith in the graduating students yet again. Dr. Sahay was quick
to add, “As a premier management institute, we realize and acknowledge the changing
paradigm of management studies and the new jobs and opportunities that are getting
created and maturing over time. We understand the ever-changing demands of the industry,
and to bridge the growing demands of the industry and the society at large, the institute
plans to launch two new full-time MBA programs specializing in the field of Digital Business
Management and Hospital and Healthcare Management for an inaugural batch of 90 and 60
professionals respectively.” She further emphasized, “The necessity for these new age
courses was hugely realized during the pandemic, and we feel there is a strong requirement
to meet the glaring demands in these sectors.”

The institute has planned the program commencement for the incoming batch in an
absolutely new campus enabled with state-of-the-art architecture infused with modern
facilities spread across a green ecosystem over 100 acres and thriving with a vibrant
student community ranging across undergraduate, postgraduate, and doctoral programmes.
