When choosing MBA between LPU and Amrita (based on the latest 2026 info), both are solid options, but they have different strengths. LPU's MBA (Mittal School of Business) is known for a wide range of specialisations, strong industry exposure, and high placement activity with many recruiters visiting campus and reported packages for top students often in the high range (e.g., ~₹13–20 LPA for top performers) and good ROI including scholarships. It's also ACBSP-accredited and ranked among India's notable private MBA programmes, with very diverse elective options. Amrita School of Business has a steady MBA reputation with average packages typically around ₹8–9 LPA, and top packages in the double-digit lakhs, with local industry links and strong academic resources. In general, LPU may offer slightly better placement numbers and ROI, while Amrita provides solid academics and decent industry exposure. Your choice should also reflect your personal goals and interest. For specialisation: MBA General gives broad business grounding, MBA Finance focuses deeply on finance careers (banking, investment, financial management), and MBA Hons often adds advanced/academic depth or dual specialisation potential. Choose MBA Finance if you're sure about finance roles, General for flexibility across sectors, and Hons if you want stronger expertise or academic rigor.
