The verdict
Good fit
IMI Bhubaneswar’s PGDM-HRM is a sensible pick if you want a dedicated HR specialization with decent placement momentum (88% placed) and a tight batch of 60. The ₹9.8 LPA average CTC offers fair ROI against the ₹14.05 lakh fee, though it may not satisfy those targeting ultra-premium consulting or product salaries. Best suited for GenZ students passionate about organizational behavior, talent strategy, and HR analytics.
