Indian Institute of Technology, Delhi: 2018 Placement Report
IIT Delhi (IIT D) 2018 placement report: CTC, recruiters, and sector data from the official release.
Numbers
Editorial review
Indian Institute of Technology, Delhi's 2018 placement cycle: IIT Delhi's MBA (DMS) Class of 2016-18 achieved 100% placement for 91 students, generating 102 offers from 56 participating companies; Sales & Marketing led sector share at 30%. The longer reading and numbered takeaways below unpack what that means for sector mix, recruiter depth, and how to read average versus median.
Sales & Marketing again topped the domain-wise split at 30%, just ahead of Consulting, IT & Analytics at 29%, with Finance & General Management at 21% and Operations at 20% close behind, a noticeably flatter distribution across the four domains than in earlier years. The 91-student batch generated 102 offers, about 1.12 offers per student, sourced from 56 participating companies, an average of roughly 1.8 offers per recruiter.
Of those 56 recruiters, 29 (about 52%) were first-time participants, a high churn rate that suggests DMS was actively broadening its corporate base that season. The recruiter list spans technology and internet names (Google, Amazon, Wipro), core engineering and energy majors (General Electric, Shell), and professional services (Accenture Strategy, Deloitte, KPMG, EY, IBM).
The highest CTC of Rs 26.00 LPA was about 1.57 times the average of Rs 16.54 LPA, with the batch's top quartile averaging Rs 20.06 LPA, a tighter spread than the following year. This report covers only DMS's MBA program for the 2016-18 batch, not IIT Delhi's institute-wide B.Tech placements, and the current live DMS placement-reports page no longer links this PDF directly, so the figures here are sourced from an archived snapshot.
Key takeaways
Average CTC rose 2%
Average CTC rose from ₹16.21 LPA in the prior cycle to ₹16.54 LPA this year (+2%). That is a modest change for Indian Institute of Technology, Delhi aspirants reading this report as a signal of typical outcomes, especially for median, which is less skewed by a handful of outlier offers than average or highest CTC.
Highest CTC fell 4%
Highest CTC fell from ₹27.07 LPA in the prior cycle to ₹26 LPA this year (−4%). That is a modest change for Indian Institute of Technology, Delhi aspirants reading this report as a signal of typical outcomes, especially for median, which is less skewed by a handful of outlier offers than average or highest CTC.
Sales & Marketing led the batch at 30%
Sales & Marketing accounted for 30% of offers, the largest sector share in this 2018 report. The next sector, Consulting, IT & Analytics, sat at 29%, so the gap between first and second is 1 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 59% of offers
Sales & Marketing and Consulting, IT & Analytics together made up 59% of offers, a concentrated recruiter mix. Finance & General Management was a distant third at 21%. Concentration is not automatically good or bad, but it does mean batch-level averages can mask thinner opportunity in secondary functions.
100% of the eligible batch placed
91 of 91 eligible students accepted offers through the campus process (100%). With essentially full participation in the reported pool, the next question is how those offers were distributed across sectors and pay bands rather than whether a seat converted.
56 recruiters, led by Google
56 firms participated for 102 offers, about 1.8 offers per recruiter on average. Google topped the named list, followed by Amazon, General Electric, and Accenture Strategy. 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.
