To tell specifically about PUMBA, we don't have specialization in IB.
You can try for other colleges in Pune as well. -
Hi Aditi,
In PUMBA, we do not have IB as specialization. PUMBA offers specialization in Marketing, Finance, HR, Operations, Systems. IB may be a subject in curriculum. Also cut off for SC category in PUMBA goes a little high.
Also, admission to PUMBA takes place through DTE. For more information you can always refer to DTE. I hope you find this needful. -

7 years agoHello Aditi, I hope you are giving MH-CET MBA for a better score and thereby will try through that for getting into PUMBA because at 48 percentile I doubt if you could get. You can go forward and apply as per DTE MBA website and instructions. Try your luck. Secondly, there's no international business management branch in PUMBA. We only have marketing, finance, operations and HR. Wish you all the best and best regards. -
Hi Aditi, it is extremely difficult to get admission in PUMBA at the mentioned percentile.Also, PUMBA has only the following specialization categories-
Human Resources,
Marketing,
Finance,
Operations and
Systems
