Hi.

According to GIBS's own recent statistics, they list “80+ companies for internships” (some years this is shown as 90+). 

Their 2025 placement report says “companies offering internships: 90+” along with “260+ recruiters overall.” 

There are claims that 100% of PGDM students (or “all students” in a batch) secure internships — at least according to some sources summarizing GIBS's placement outcome. 

In the internship‑drive for batch 2024–26, a large number of established companies and startups (across finance, FMCG, manufacturing, consulting, IT, etc.) reportedly participated in offering internships.
