Both FMS and NITIE are renowned management institutes in India. FMS is known for its academic excellence and strong industry connections, while NITIE is known for its focus on operations and supply chain management. It's important to note that IIM ABC, FMS, XL, other old b-schools, and other old IIMs are all great B-Schools and admission to any one of them is a matter of great importance and celebration.
