Masters' Union sits between IIM-tier (₹25-27 L) and ISB (~₹45 L) on cost, with a 16-month duration midway between IIM's 2 years and ISB's 1 year. Per-month cost is comparable to IIM A/B/C.
Class of 2025 (audited by B2K Analytics, the same firm that audits IIM Ahmedabad) placed at ₹33.39 LPA average CTC with median ₹27.78 L, highest ₹1.28 Cr, and 4 offers above ₹1 Cr. Top 25% averaged ₹54.80 L.
With pre-MBA average CTC of ₹11.8 L, that's a ~183% jump. Payback period for the median student: ~2-3 years post-graduation. For international placements (₹64 LPA avg, ~18.5% of cohort placed abroad), ROI is even stronger.
| Scholarship Type | Amount | Eligibility |

| Diversity Scholarships (women) | up to ₹8 L | women applicants |

Education loans up to ₹40-50 L are routinely sanctioned via SBI, HDFC Credila, Axis, ICICI, Auxilo, InCred, and Avanse.
Masters' Union's positioning is "CXO-led, not professor-led" — ~80% of teaching is delivered by sitting CXOs, founders, and senior practitioners from McKinsey, BCG, Bain, Bloomberg, Google, Meta, Microsoft, and ISB-trained operators. This faculty model is more expensive than full-time academic faculty but delivers immediate industry application.
The trade-off: the school is only 5 years old (founded 2020), so brand equity is still being built — less of a "default safe choice" than IIM A/B/C, but higher upside if you target tech/startup/strategic roles where the new-economy company-mix shines.
