New Delhi: IIM-Ahmedabad has again topped the list of CNBC-TV18's annual B-school rankings, but IIM-Bangalore is close on the heels.
The 4th edition of the annual ranking study, 'India's Best B-Schools 2012' covers 145 B-Schools, 235 recruiters and 217 faculty members, across a dual methodology, making it one of India's leading and most comprehensive rankings for management education.
IIM Ahmedabad led the rankings and continues to be the benchmark for MBA education in India. However, IIM Bangalore is running very close driven by its improved performance in areas such as industry interface and international linkages.

In terms of average salaries, India's top b-schools saw an average increase of approximately 20%. However, amongst the lower ranked schools, there were considerable challenges in terms of intake as well as salary increases and placements.
At IIM-A, the maximum salary offered for an Indian job was Rs 37 lacs per annum and for a foreign posting was USD 139.64 thousand per annum.The average and median salary figures were 16.36 lacs per annum and 15.15 lacs per annum respectively.
