One MBA or several of them in the organization is seen as an indication of the sophistication and the management capability of that organization. Barring the prestigious Administrative and Foreign Services of India, MBA from top management colleges of India ranks as the first in the pecking order of professions in India. No wonder a large number of Indian industries have at the top a number of MBAs from India or abroad. In addition, a large number of MNCs now visit Indian B-School campuses for recruitment.

As the India Inc is increasing its influence in global business market; the demand of qualified business graduates or business professionals from top MBA colleges are all time high in Indian market. One recent survey showed that business education market in India is about Rs.30 billion in 2008 (campus and distance education together) and growing at a rate of 12% in last 3 years. Currently 1,550 top business schools producing over 100,000 management graduates every year is not enough to meet the growing demand for management education in India. Against 290,000 students applied for CAT in 2008 number of seats offered by top management colleges like IIMs are 1,700 only showing the huge demand – supply mismatch for quality management education in the country. As a result, opportunities in management education in India are immense.
