MBA from Indian Institute of Management Rohtak (2019)

It is clearly a personal choice as there seems to be very little difference between the two. Let us compare both the institutes in detail for you to make a more informed choice.

  • IIM Rohtak is located in the Delhi NCR region while IIM Raipur is located at Naya Raipur, the capital city of Chhattisgarh.
  • However good the city of Naya Raipur may be, the perks of being close to the Delhi NCR are unparalleled. This will help in placements, life outside of the campus, etc.
  • Both are neck to neck in terms of placements. But IIM Raipur slightly edges past IIM Rohtak in some aspects.

The table below will compare the placement statistics of both institutes.

It is safe to assume that you can be happy at either of the institutes. As a personal choice, I chose IIM Rohtak as the sales & marketing course is slightly better than that of IIM Raipur.
