    You need to apply for the entrance exam conducted by LPU i.e. LPUNEST to get admission there or they might admit you if you pay the fee directly, when I filled the LPUNEST form, there was a notification which reads "you can take direct admission without appearing in LPUNEST if you pay the fee directly". Even because of this, I didn't fill up the form and put it on hold as they are giving admission without any entrance.

At GIBS, our curriculum and academic changes are taken care of by some really strong committees. The Academic Council, Board of Studies, and IQAC team constantly review what we are learning and update it based on industry needs. Even our faculty members work together to suggest improvements.

As a student, I feel like these committees make sure our syllabus is always fresh, practical, and helpful for the real corporate world. It's one of the reasons learning at GIBS feels so updated and relevant.

Hi.

According to the official “Courses / BBA” listing for 2026, GIBS lists its BBA seat intake as 150.

Multiple sources (including college‑profile websites) consistently state 150 seats for BBA.

If all seats are filled, roughly 150 new BBA students join GIBS each academic year.

Depending on demand, admissions, and seats allocated, actual admitted numbers may sometimes be slightly more or less (some sources mention up to ~180 in some years), — perhaps due to multiple sections or seat‑category allocations.

The intake refers to the full BBA batch (i.e. across all specializations under BBA at GIBS).
