Year-Wise Placement Statistics

The table below tracks Indian Institute of Management Shillong's flagship PGP final placement figures across 2026, 2025 and 2024. It answers the most common aspirant question, namely how packages and placement consistency have moved year on year. Read each row left to right: the highest package shows the single best domestic CTC, the average and median show how the middle of the batch fared, and the placed percentage shows how complete the season was. The median is often the more realistic number for an incoming student than the headline highest package.

The clear takeaway is stability at the top and growth in the middle: IIM Shillong has held its highest CTC steady at INR 71.50 LPA across all three years while pushing the average up from INR 26.10 LPA (2024) to INR 27.03 LPA (2026). The median rose from INR 25.00 LPA in 2025 to INR 26.00 LPA in 2026, which matters more for the typical candidate because it signals that gains were broad-based rather than driven by a few outlier offers. Full 100.00% placement in both 2025 and 2026 underlines reliable recruiter demand despite a tough macro hiring climate.

Sector & Role-Wise Breakdown

The table below shows how Indian Institute of Management Shillong's 2025 final offers split across domains, with the share of offers and the top CTC reported in each. It answers the question of which functions dominate hiring and where the biggest pay-packets sit. Read the share column to judge how many seats a domain typically offers, and the highest-CTC column to see the ceiling within that function. Note that the single highest CTC of INR 71.50 LPA came through the IT & Analytics route.

The dominant takeaway is that Consulting & Strategy is the engine of IIM Shillong placements, taking the largest 28% slice in 2025 (down from roughly 32% in 2024), with Sales & Marketing, Finance and General Management forming a strong middle band. For 2024, Consulting & Strategy led at about 32% (top CTC near INR 46.05 LPA) and Finance was close behind at about 29% (top CTC near INR 40 LPA). The lesson for aspirants: while IT & Analytics carries the highest ceiling of INR 71.50 LPA, the volume of opportunity sits in consulting, marketing and finance roles.
