Return on Investment (ROI) Analysis
With an average placement package of ₹5,00,000 per annum and a highest package reaching ₹12,00,000, NIBT’s ROI is significantly positive. Over four years, students invest approximately ₹6,68,000 (₹1,67,000/year) in tuition and associated fees. Assuming an average salary of ₹5,00,000 in the first year post-graduation, the investment pays off within a few years. For those securing higher packages (e.g., ₹12,00,000), the return is even more substantial.
Additionally, many students pursue internships during their academic tenure, which often lead to full-time offers from top recruiters. This further enhances the ROI by providing early career exposure and financial gain.
