Opportunities and Challenges
While placement figures signal steady progress, the institute continues to navigate several challenges.

Additionally, rising competition among B-Schools and shifting industry expectations toward digital-first, analytics-driven skill sets pose ongoing demands for adaptability.
Despite these factors, IIM Raipur’s commitment to academic rigor, innovative pedagogy, and global collaborations has helped sustain strong placement outcomes and prepare students for an evolving corporate landscape.
