Key takeaways
Average and Highest CTC rose
Average CTC rose from ₹10.81 LPA in the prior cycle to ₹12.02 LPA this year (+11.2%). Highest CTC rose from ₹43.31 LPA in the prior cycle to ₹53.75 LPA this year (+24.1%). Prefer the median over highest when sizing a typical outcome for this batch.
BFSI led the batch at 27%
BFSI accounted for 27% of offers, the largest sector share in this 2016 report. The next sector, Consulting and Analytics, sat at 23%, so the gap between first and second is 4 percentage points. If your target function sits outside this lead sector, treat the headline placement rate as a campus-wide figure rather than a guarantee for your preferred cohort.
Top two sectors took 50% of offers
BFSI and Consulting and Analytics together made up 50% of offers, a concentrated recruiter mix. Manufacturing/Engineering/Energy was a distant third at 22%. Concentration is not automatically good or bad, but it does mean batch-level averages can mask thinner opportunity in secondary functions.
93.4% of the eligible batch placed
99 of 106 eligible students accepted offers through the campus process (93.4%), with 7 opting out or taking paths outside the reported pool. High conversion is the headline; the more useful follow-up is whether your preferred sector and role type showed up in the sector split and recruiter list below.
79 recruiters, led by Cognizant
79 firms participated for 101 offers, about 1.3 offers per recruiter on average. Cognizant topped the named list, followed by Cisco Systems, HP Enterprise, and Larsen & Toubro Infotech. The source also flags 7 first-time recruiters, including Uber Technologies, Zee Entertainment, and Maersk Line. Offer concentration among a few brand-name firms is common at top campuses; check whether your target employers actually appear in this list rather than assuming brand gravity alone.
51% of past recruiters returned to campus
51% of past recruiters returned to campus, and leadership programs on offer included the Future Leaders Program, Young Leaders Program, Business Leadership Program and Vodafone Discover Program.
