Hi Sagnik,

Hope you are doing well !

So, NMIMS Bangalore, FORE School, GIM, and IRMA all are good colleges. every college has their own set of pros. In my opinion GIM would be the most sought after B-School among others. GIM has a great exposure, as it is located near Mumbai(Financial capital of the country), it also has a nice brand value to itself. The faculties come from really reputed MNC's, and are well qualified. The alumni base of GIM is also very good.

However, it's fees is really high as compared to it's average placements, which reduces the ROI. but none the less, overall, it is a really great B-School, and is doing really well in terms of placements.

Hope the above answer was helpful.
