Considering the above-given data, IBS Hyderabad should be preferred over IMT Hyderabad because:
IBS Hyderabad is an older establishment, hence a stronger alumni base.
Moreover, IBS Hyderabad is one of the B-Schools in India that teaches Harvard cases.
It also has better international linkages and teaches considering both Indian and International perspectives.
Even though IMT Ghaziabad is a good brand name, but IMT Hyderabad is new and still making its name.
However, one drawback of IBS Hyderabad is the huge intake (1200+) of students.
So the final decision rests upon you.
