Signing of MoU with Andhra Bank, Chairman Mr. K. Ramakrishnan and Sri Balaji Society, President, Prof. (Col.) A. Balasubramanian
INTRODUCTION
Sri Balaji Society is proud of her children viz. Management Institutions / Colleges. And each child, that is each institute and college, is important to the top management. That is why Prof. (Col.) A. Balasubramanian, who is the founder of the society holds the triple responsibilities viz. the President of Sri Balaji Society; the Executive Director of BIMM and the Dean of BITM, BIIB and BIMHRD (a description about the sister institutions, in a nutshell, appear in this brochure. Please visit their website for more informaiton).
While each Management Institute of Sri Balaji Society is an individual entity, the quality standards of faculties, examinations, IT training and campus placement activities are centrally co-ordinated. That is why besides the Directors of the Institutes, we have Prof. Suresh Chandra Padhy, the Director (Academics) , Prof. Biju Pillai, the Director (Information Technology), Prof. Dimple Saini, the Director (Corporate Relations) and Prof. B. Paramdhaman (Joint Director) of Sri Balaji Society to oversee, co-ordinate and exercise control centrally just like the corporate headquarters in the interest of all the students of the society.
It means that each institution is important and enjoys equal status and attention from the top management. We select the best possible candidates for all the Institutes from amongst the common pool of all the candidates applied for admission to any or all the institutes of Sri Balaji Society; although such a consideration arises only when a candidate is not selected for admission to the particular institute to which he or she may have applied originally. By doing so, we are in no way taking away any opportunity from anyone but are providing an additional opportunity to get selected in any of the prestigious institutes of Sri Balaji Society.

Please note that due to late affiliation to CAT, our name is not included in the bulletin but is displayed in the websites of IIMs. Combined selection process will be held for BITM and sister institutes of Sri Balaji Society namely, BIIB, BIMM and BIMHRD.
Final selections will be based on the performance in the CAT, GD, Personal Interview and Essay Writing which will be held almost in all state capitals.

No separate communication for change of centre will be communicated by us.
Group Discussion and Personal Interview (GD / PI)
Candidates who have been screened through the written test score (CAT) will be called for group discussion and interview. The group discussion generally aims at measuring the skills, knowledge, attitude, social behaviour, leadership, personality, etc. of the candidates. Group discussion is an elimination round.
The purpose of interview is to measure aptitude, subject knowledge, business awareness, communication skills and suitability for corporate careers.
MERIT LIST
On completion of interviews, we compare the performance of all candidates appearing for the interview and generate a final merit list based on their overall performance. Weightage is given to written test score, academic performance, work experience, group discussion score and personal interview score. Additional weightage will be given to those candidates who have completed/pursuing a four year degree or any other professional qualification such as CA/ CS/ ICWA etc.
As a socially conscious trust we believe in the upliftment of the women candidates and hence a minimum of 50% of the seats may be considered for women candidates provided they are otherwise suitable.
