MBA Colleges in Delhi 2026 : Fees, Admission, Ranking, Without Cat, Placement

Ans. There are two main routes to take admission into an MBA college in Delhi NCR: one is through an entrance exam, and the other is through direct admission. Both require a bachelor’s degree in any stream, usually with around 50% marks.

• Admission is based on entrance exams such as CAT, MAT, CMAT and XAT, followed by a Personal Interview (PI) and a Written Ability Test (WAT). This is the main and most followed process for MBA admission.
• Some colleges offer direct admission based on academic performance or management quotas, mostly without an entrance exam. The fees may be higher for this process, and the criteria depend on the college. Amity Noida, GNIT Greater Noida, JMI Delhi, YMCA Delhi and FSM Delhi are some of the MBA colleges in Delhi NCR that offer direct admission in the MBA/PGDM course.

Here are the steps to follow for the entrance-exam route.

Ans. Masters' Union Gurgaon has the highest average/median package at 33.39 LPA, followed by FMS Delhi at 32.27 LPA and IIFT Delhi at 26 LPA. The highest package goes up to 1.28 CPA at Masters' Union Gurgaon and 1.1 CPA at FMS Delhi. Recruiters include McKinsey & Company, Boston Consulting Group, Bain & Company, Goldman Sachs, Deloitte and Amazon.

Ans. DFS Delhi has the highest ROI at 1555.60%, with a course fee of 99.64 K and an average/median package of 15.50 LPA. DSE Delhi follows at 1421.74%, DBE Delhi at 1405.94% and FMS Delhi at 916.76%. ROI is calculated as the average/median annual package divided by total course fees, multiplied by 100.

Ans. Work experience is not mandatory for the regular MBA and PGDM programmes at FMS Delhi, MDI Gurgaon and IMT Ghaziabad, though it carries weight in the composite score at several institutes. Executive programmes generally require work experience; the requirement varies by institute and programme.

Ans. FMS Delhi offers an exceptional ROI of 916.76%, with an average/median package of 32.27 LPA on a fee of 3.52 Lakh, which makes it the better choice for students looking for a high return on their investment in business education. MDI Gurgaon returns a lower ROI of 76.83% on a fee of 32.54 Lakh with an average/median package of 25 LPA, and is known for its strong management programmes and industry connections. Here is a comparison of the key criteria of the two colleges.

Verdict: FMS Delhi is the better choice for almost every candidate. It beats MDI Gurgaon on CD Score, average/median package and highest package while charging 3.52 Lakh against 32.54 Lakh, so its ROI is twelve times higher. MDI Gurgaon only makes sense if the 98 percentile CAT cutoff is out of reach, since it admits at 95 percentile, or if a fully residential PGDM with a larger international exchange network matters more than cost.

Ans. MDI Gurgaon offers a PGDM in International Business at 32.54 Lakh with an average/median package of 25 LPA. IMT Ghaziabad offers a PGDM in Marketing at 23 Lakh with an average/median package of 17.64 LPA. Their ROIs are 76.83% and 76.70%, respectively. Here is a comparison of the two colleges.

Verdict: ROI cannot separate these two, at 76.83% and 76.70%, so the decision comes down to cash. Choose MDI Gurgaon if the extra 9.54 Lakh is affordable, because it pays 7.36 LPA more and carries a far higher CD Score at 854 against 728. Choose IMT Ghaziabad to keep the outlay at 23 Lakh for virtually the same return, or if admission through XAT or GMAT rather than CAT alone is useful.

Ans. BIMTECH Greater Noida is the only top-ranked MBA college in Delhi that admits in the 60–75 percentile band, across its PGDM programmes, and it reports an average/median package of 10.90 LPA on a fee of 19.78 Lakh. Below 75 percentile, the realistic route in Delhi is the set of colleges that admit without a CAT score.

Ans. FSM Delhi and DoC DU report the lowest cutoffs in this band at 85 percentile, followed by IMT Ghaziabad, IMI Delhi and DBE Delhi at 90 percentile. IMT Ghaziabad pays the most at 17.64 LPA, while DBE Delhi returns 14.20 LPA on a fee of only 1.01 Lakh.

Ans. FMS Delhi and DMS Delhi (IIT Delhi) set the highest bar at 98 percentile, and FMS Delhi pays the most of this group at 32.27 LPA on a fee of 3.52 Lakh. DSE Delhi opens the band at 92 percentile for just 1.15 Lakh, and IIFT Delhi admits on a GMAT score of 700 marks instead.

Ans. Finance, Marketing, Human Resources, Information Technology and Business Analytics are among the specialisations offered by Delhi NCR MBA colleges, with Finance available at 202 colleges, Marketing at 199 and Human Resources at 189. Here are examples of colleges and related career areas.

Ans. Masters' Union Gurgaon, SRCC Delhi, Amity Noida, Jaipuria Noida and IMS Ghaziabad offer routes through institute-specific or other accepted entrance exams such as MU-BAAT, the SRCC-GBO test, MAT, CMAT and ATMA. Candidates must still meet the college eligibility and selection requirements.
