How much does a waitlist move in SCMHRD for an MBA gen?
In 2023, the waitlist movement in SCMHRD was zero (till 7th waitlist). According to SCMHRD's claims, there have been no cancellations. Meanwhile SIBM Pune in its 4th list has moved by 90. Depending on the number of students that were able to clear the cutoff and further opportunities provided for MBA Students the waitlist moves.
Should I pursue an MBA at SCMHRD for a non-HR specialization?
The highest package offered for HR Specialization during the year 2021-2023 was 35.02 LPA and the average package was 23.83 LPA. Roles Offered included Consultant, HR Data Analyst, Senior Manager, Talent Consulting Analyst and more. While SCMHRD is famous for HR specialization, it also offers decent packages in other specializations like 33 LPA for sales and 27 LPA for finance with diversified roles. Once you enter the college it depends on you to choose the stream suitable for you and the one you are good with so other specializations also are doing well according to the placement reports.
What is the placement scenario of SC/ST Students at SCMHRD pune?
The cutoff for the SC/ST category is lowered during the admission process until they are provided with equal opportunities, as other students are being offered. It depends on the calibre of the student and the package they secure. SCMHRD provides students with a competitive background. For instance, one of the seniors from the 2019 batch from business analytics got placed with a package of 19 Lakh.
Can I sit for another placement with a higher package after securing a 10 LPA offer? Will the SCMHRD permit it, and why?
If a student got a placement of 10 LPA then he is not allowed to sit for a company offering a package of 30 LPA. The policy of SIU is that once the student gets placed he is not allowed to sit further for placement. This policy ensures equal opportunities for every student and reduces the chances of unfair competition, thereby increasing the chances of every student getting placed.
Should I join SCMHRD with 45 months of work experience? Concerned about placement with batch averaging 16 months work experience.
The average work experience for the batch is 14.5 months which is mentioned in the placement report. The batch profile comprises students from diversified backgrounds, 68% of the students are engineers with strong technical backgrounds. This diversity is unlikely to pose any issues. It is not necessary to join with 45 months of work experience as freshers also bang good packages of above 16 LPA.
Did anyone get placed in SCMHRD, Pune with less than 60% in graduation?
In SCMHRD, many students with less than 60% in their graduation are still getting placed. The eligibility criteria for placement often depend on the requirements of individual companies. Some companies require a minimum aggregate of 70% & more but usually companies do not come with such criteria. Also the aggregate is taken into consideration in the final year while the whole result is still awaited. This means there is a lesser chance of any student being unplaced with less than 60% in graduation.
What is the situation of freshers in SCMHRD during placements?

The expectation from students is to prepare well for a mock interview and attend various seminars to gain guidance from an industrial specialist. Overall, freshers are groomed well before they appear for their final interviews and are offered a good package ranging from 19 LPA to 22 LPA.
Are SIBM Pune and SCMHRD good colleges? If yes, what's their rank? Why people don't consider Symbiosis a great brand? Has it diluted over the years?
It all depends on your definition of 'good'. SIBM, SCMHRD, or even IIM-A are not good universities for someone who has excelled throughout their academic career and wishes to attend Ivy League colleges.
SIBM and SCMHRD are absolutely good universities for someone who has been above average academically and wishes to study in India's top 20 B-School. In addition, aspects like curriculum, faculty member quality, infrastructure, and so on.
Every year, approximately 80-85k candidates apply for SNAP, of whom 2500-3000 are shortlisted for the GD-PI procedure, of which 400-500 are selected to study at these two colleges. If it answers your question about SIBM/SCMHRD being good colleges, I believe that is the ratio for many of India's top B-Schools.
In terms of ranking, SIBM is consistently ranked among the top 15 B-Schools in India; the rank ranges from 7 to 15, depending on the methodology and factors used. SCMHRD appears alongside, a few positions lower/higher for the same reasons stated above.
And people do consider Symbiosis a great brand, provided they're from the industry or closely follow education around business administration. They are well aware of the outstanding work of our alumni. Other persons who are not interested in business news or MBA as a discipline may be unaware of B-Schools other than IIMs and XLRI.
And, certainly, brand dilution occurs when the number of universities with the same name increases, especially when admission is very easy. The same is true for NITs, IITs, and IIMs. While IIM-A is a fantastic brand, IIM Kashipur, while being an IIM, is not. SIBM Pune is a more powerful brand than Symbiosis.
