Highlights of Business Today 7th December 2025 issue:
India’s management education ecosystem stands at a pivotal transition. While demand for MBA programmes continue to surge, the landscape is being reshaped by muted hiring cycles, rising fees, slower salary growth, and shifting expectations from industry. The latest BT-MDRA India’s Best B-Schools rankings highlight not just institutional performance but the emerging divergence between established IIMs and ambitious private schools striving to differentiate through new programmes, multi-campus models, and industry-aligned curricula. From integrated degree formats to an increased push towards executive and doctoral programmes, the centre of gravity is slowly moving from traditional two-year MBAs to continuous learning.
Yet challenges persist: declining return on investment, reduced industry-sponsored projects, and uneven alignment between academic training and employer needs. This special issue of Business Today examines how B-schools must evolve beyond legacy formats to remain relevant in an economy defined by AI, geopolitical unpredictability, and a changing corporate talent pipeline.
Explore insights, rankings, trends, and data in Business Today’s India Best B-Schools issue- On stands & online now!
