What is the average package at Indian Institute of Management Indore?

The average package at Indian Institute of Management Indore for the flagship PGP and IPM batch of 2025 was INR 29.57 LPA, with the highest domestic offer reaching INR 70 LPA. This was a clear rebound from the 2024 batch's average of INR 25.68 LPA, lifting IIM Indore back near its 2023 high of INR 30.21 LPA. The 2025 cohort of 591 students (478 PGP and 113 IPM participants) recorded 100% placement, with a median CTC of INR 27 LPA and more than 225 recruiters, including 50 new partners, visiting the campus. The full final placement figures for the 2024-26 batch (reported as IIM Indore's 2026 placements) are still being finalised at the time of writing, so the most recent fully audited average remains the INR 29.57 LPA mark from 2025.

Branch/Course-Wise Package Breakdown

Unlike an engineering school, IIM Indore does not place by engineering branch; it places by programme and by the specialisation domain a student chooses. The table below answers "which IIM Indore programme pays the most?" by setting the flagship two-year PGP and five-year IPM cohort (placed together, since IPM students enter the PGP pool in their final two years) against the PGP-HRM programme. Read it as average, median and highest CTC per programme for the most recent verified batch, so you can see both the typical and the top-end outcome. All figures are for the 2025 final placement season unless stated.

The key takeaway is that the flagship PGP and IPM pool delivers IIM Indore's strongest pay, with a INR 29.57 LPA average and a INR 70 LPA ceiling, while the specialised PGP-HRM programme settles around INR 25 LPA. For an applicant, the gap between PGP's INR 27 LPA median and PGP-HRM's INR 24 LPA median shows that the flagship route offers both a higher floor and a far higher top-end. Because IPM's last two years merge into the PGP placement pool, IPMAT aspirants can expect the same outcomes as the two-year PGP batch.

Year-Wise Package Trend

This table tracks how IIM Indore's flagship PGP and IPM average, median and highest packages have moved across recent batches, answering "is the package at IIM Indore increasing?" Read each row as one placement season: the average shows the typical offer, the median strips out top-end outliers, and the highest shows the single best domestic offer that year. The 2026 final placement numbers are not yet published, so the table runs through the most recent fully reported season.

The trajectory tells an honest story: IIM Indore's average climbed from INR 25.01 LPA (2022) to a peak of INR 30.21 LPA (2023), dipped to INR 25.68 LPA in the tougher 2024 hiring market, then recovered to INR 29.57 LPA in 2025. The highest package crossed INR 1 Crore in both 2023 (INR 1.14 Cr) and 2024 (INR 1 Cr), but the 2025 top domestic offer was INR 70 LPA. For an applicant, the steadier signal is the median, which held firmly in the INR 24.50 to INR 27.2 LPA band across all three reported years, showing dependable mid-batch outcomes even when averages swing.

Notable Offers & Package Distribution

At Indian Institute of Management Indore, the 2025 batch's top offers and headline recruiters were concentrated in consulting, finance and analytics. The highest yearly package of INR 70 LPA in 2025 came from the IT/Analytics domain, and consulting drew the deepest recruiter bench, with names such as Boston Consulting Group, Bain & Company, Kearney, Accenture Strategy, Deloitte (India and USI), EY, KPMG, PwC and Infosys Consulting hiring on campus. Over 49% of the 2025 batch secured roles in consulting and finance combined.

The distribution shows how IIM Indore splits between premium and mass recruiters. The table below answers "which domains hire the most at IIM Indore?" by listing the share of 2025 final-placement offers per domain. Read each row as the percentage of total offers, with consulting and sales & marketing acting as the largest mass-recruiting buckets and IT/Analytics carrying the single highest pay.

The takeaway is that consulting and sales & marketing together absorbed 55% of IIM Indore's 2025 offers, making them the volume drivers, while finance added another 18% of largely premium roles. Although IT/Analytics took the smallest share at 13%, it produced the year's top INR 70 LPA package, showing that the highest CTC at IIM Indore is not always in the largest domain. For an applicant, this means consulting and marketing offer the best odds of a strong offer, while analytics and finance compete for the premium ceiling.
