Looks like a advertisement, notability questionable as it only has 55 students according to the article. PROD removed. Laber□^T 15:38, 17 April 2016 (UTC)[reply]

• Keep appears to meet WP:GNG, thanks to sources such as this, this and this. Cordless Larry (talk) 18:24, 17 April 2016 (UTC)[reply]
• Comment. Note that this does not appear to be a degree-awarding institution. Although it claims its diploma is equivalent to an MBA it almost certainly isn't (otherwise it would be called an MBA!). -- Necrothesp (talk) 13:15, 18 April 2016 (UTC)[reply]

• Check #24 and #62, for all intents and purposes the PG Diploma is considered an MBA. The nomenclature is more to do with the accreditation system in India -- an MBA can only be offered by a university while a PGDM (or variants) can be offered by accredited institutes not affiliated to a university.

Nevertheless it still is a part of IIM institutes that are considered top business schools in India. About PG Diploma, All IIMs run this 2 year Post Graduate Program in Management which is a 2 year course, and all award a Diploma instead of MBA degree. PGP Diploma may not be EQUIVALENT to MBA in strictest sense, but this program is as prestigious and sought after in India, like any other MBA from other Business Schools. ^[1] ChunnuBhai (talk) 09:00, 19 April 2016 (UTC)[reply]
• Keep The school is pretty new and the article isn't even a year old. It's more like a stub that I would expect will expand as coverage does. I think there's enough coverage devoted to the school to keep it for now. RockyMtChai (talk) 19:51, 22 April 2016 (UTC)[reply]
