Together they can cut the cost of the INR 8.90 lakh PGDM by a large amount for a strong student.
The entrance-exam scholarship goes up to INR 1,00,000, and the Founder Chairman's Rolling Scholarship gives INR 36,000 to the top 5% of the cohort every trimester. Here are the slabs, eligibility and how the money is adjusted.
