Which would be the best choice among IIFT Kolkata, IIM Trichy and other new IIMs for someone with strong interests to pursue a career in finance?

IIM Trichy is an ideal choice for pursuing a career in Finance. Many reputed banks visit the campus for recruitment like Citi, ICICI Bank, and YES Bank. This year the Finance sector accounted for 15%of the total placements. The highest CTC stood at INR 20 LPA whereas the average CTC stood at INR 17.67 LPA.

The IIFT program of Kolkata may have an upper hand due to its location but it’s not at par with IIM Trichy. If you are interested in the program I suggest you go for the New Delhi one.

The new IIMs are somewhat similar to Trichy but they won’t help you kickstart a career directly in finance. You might have to take baby steps to enter the Finance sector. So it’s best if you choose IIM Trichy only.
