Only those B-schools that submitted their objective data have been ranked. Only those colleges that fulfilled the following criteria were considered eligible for participation in the ranking: i. Minimum three batches passed out ii. Offering full-time Post Graduate Programme in Management. All scores have been rounded off to one decimal place; this may result in rounding off errors while adding the parameter-wise score.
