Will a 65% in graduation be a deterrent during the placement process of a B-school like IMT, IMI, TAPMI, IIT-KGP?
A 65% in graduation shouldn’t be a deterrent during placements. Companies generally look at how you perform in your MBA. The academic percentages are only there for cut-offs and having more than 60% for that is sufficient.
During placements, you should be able to showcase your skills and those skills should align with what the firm is looking for at that point in time. Make sure you participate in competitions as it opens up your mind and helps you gain significant knowledge on a number of different topics and perspectives. Perform above average in class when it comes to academics/cgpa, and have some achievements under your belt. That will help you stand out.

I have converted both IMT and TAPMI. Which college is better for Finance?
IMT marketing is great, but TAPMI is famous for its finance program. Bloomberg Lab benefits TAPMI financial students. In 2014, Bloomberg created the State-of-the-Art Finance Lab with 16 terminals with BSE and NSE data streams, along with 7 Thomson Reuters terminals. Students learn forecasting, risk management, investments, and global financial management. This lab bridges financial theory and practice by giving students real-world market experience.
Bloomberg is used in all first-year Finance courses and 60% of electives. The course material is top-notch, and the faculty—including the Director, a finance and marketing expert—are among the best in the nation. Most faculty members have Phds from top universities like IIMs and IITs. Finance students are envied on campus because they get the greatest final placements. Excellent profiles.
What is the amount that is needed to spend to survive a month in hostel at the MBA program at TAPMI, Manipal? As in, food, electricity bills, outings etc? What is the minimum and maximum amount needed
People there usually have a monthly spending of 50K if they have a vehicle/bike and eat out almost every day. If you don’t party or eat out, you could last on less than 4000 rupees/month. A person living frugally for 22 months could only possibly need to spend 79K. You will also have to pay 500–600 per person every month for power. This is possible to manage in a large non-AC room. In conclusion, it’s definitely possible to live without spending a whole deal of money at TAPMI.
I have planned to do an MBA from one of these colleges: LIBA, TAPMI, IMNU, GLIM, SIMSR, BIM Trichy. Which of these colleges would you suggest?
Student strength, ROI, average package, campus, faculty-student ratio, alumni base, and placements determine the candidate's college choice.
Due to its low student population and one-year flagship programme, the Great Lakes Institute of Management (GLIM) is the top college. GLIM also attracts prominent firms for placements. If the candidate can afford it, they should select it.
T.A.pai Management Institute (TAPMI) has a gorgeous campus and fun classes, however its ROI is lower than other universities. Due to the huge student intake, not everyone may find a favorable placement.
Bharathidasan Institute of Management (BIM) Trichy boasts a low tuition, strong alumni, and high placements at McKinsey and Asian Paints. For individuals interested in South Indian culture, BIM boasts a great faculty-student ratio.
SIMSR's average package is 10 LPA. However, those with more than two years of experience may feel underpaid.
LIBA has low tuition but a lower average package than other institutions. If no other option exists, the applicant could choose LIBA.
IMNU offers good placements and stress-free student life.
Considering my credentials, can I get a call from any of these colleges, IIMs, FMS, XLRI or NMIMS, MICA, TAPMI, or SIBM?
Colleges may call depending on numerous variables. IIMs rarely call candidates without a 95+ percentile. IIMs exclusively accept top academic and overall candidates. Other colleges like FMS, XL, SPJIMR, and MDI assess the candidate's whole profile, giving them a little edge. These institutions consider work experience, extracurriculars, and leadership skills in addition to academic performance.
Even after being accepted to a top college, a candidate's academic performance may affect their placements, which could damage their job chances. The only thing candidates can control is their CAT/XAT score. So they should try their best and then decide.

Why are the companies for placements at baby IIMs not known brands compared to colleges like TAPMI/IMI? Is it worth joining baby IIMs when the brands recruiting from them are not known?
Big Companies and good brands hiring from top B-Schools and colleges like TAPMI/IMI know the students they are hiring have already been through some rigorous checks, so their job is half done, and they don’t want to just hire and train them. While the small companies and brands can’t get into top B-schools, baby IIMs welcome them and they can easily train them.
As the baby IIMs will grow old they will start getting big brands as well, so don’t discard them easily. IIM tag is after all the same for all and it matters.
Best of Luck !
Are Manipal (MAHE) and TAPMI one and the same?

MAHE is a proper university offering UG, PG, and Doctoral programs while TAPMI offers only PGDM programs.
