You have heard it right. IIM Rohtak does not have the cap around anymore. You will have to apply separately for this college. It might cost about INR 2000 for the form. The college also does not have any sectional cutoffs either.
As far as salaries are concerned, the highest is INR 24 lakhs per annum and the average is INR 13.70 lakhs per annum. The average salary for the college has increased from INR 11.85 lakhs which was the case last year.
You have a fairly good chance of getting into IIM Rohtak. If seats are available, you will be notified of your selection. After the JEE mains, many students who were admitted to IIM Rohtak will choose to study at an NIT or IIT, which acts as an opportunity for you.
There are also 40 seats reserved for the students belonging to OBC Category. Therefore, there is a high chance that you will get admitted to IIM Rohtak. Just be patient and do not miss any notification that is being updated on the official website.
Given the two chances, I will definitely join IIM Rohtak over NMIMS anytime. The reasons for my choice are
Campus: The newly made campus of IIM Rohtak stretches over 150 acres and is loaded with top-notch facilities. Although some might consider its location at a disadvantage to NMIMS, in reality, it is just an hour's drive away from Delhi.
Placements: IIM Rohtak has an upper hand in placement opportunities as well.

Pedagogy: You can never compare the pedagogy of an IIM with any other B School. It’s very rigorous and the curriculum does not focus on academics, but also on exposure. This exposure is brought by events like TEDx and Marathon where students learn how to manage. Guest faculties from other IIMs, institutes like MDI, and senior management from top firms visit the campus for industry exposure.
Fees: IIM Rohtak- ?9.9 Lakhs (1st Year Fees)NMIMS- ?11.95 Lakhs (1st Year Fees). Despite being an IIM, Rohtaks fees are lesser than NMIMS.
Peer Learning: The peers are some of the most talented people you will ever come across. They have gotten into IIM with a percentile of more than 99.5. Moreover, there is a healthy blend of freshers and experienced students to promote effective peer learning. Most activities are conducted group-wise and each group comprises students from different backgrounds.
I hope these reasons might have cleared all the remaining doubts you had.
The IPM course offered by IIM Rohtak is an integrated program that includes BBA and MBA is for the students who have passed their class XII. This is a very unique and trending course. The foundational BBA course provides an edge for pursuing MBA degrees which, in turn, will help you become successful managers or leaders in the future. Also, the internship opportunity is provided right from the start of the course and will give you hands-on experience in the particular field.
Now coming to the competition, due to the limited seats offered, the competition is quite high.

Finally, 140 students were selected to pursue the course.
Due to the uniqueness and diversified nature of the course, the competition is quite high for getting the seat.
After going through the course of Project Management outline on the internet, it is a decent certificate course. Let me tell you the reason behind making this statement.
The certificate provided is from a reputed institution. It is recognized nationally. As it is an industry-oriented course, you will get several opportunities and it will also add value to your resume. Try to comprehend the concepts in it and use them in your day-to-day life activities.
My cousin is in his sophomore year, pursuing FPM at IIM Rohtak, and here is what he has to say about the course.
Course structure:
In the very beginning of your first year, you will have to attend the classes with the students from PGP. From the second year onwards, you will attend classes that are a fair mix of several PGP classes and a few subjects of your own preference.
The only point of difference both the scenarios share is that in a class with the PGP students, you will have to sit with at least 50 students, while if you are in the FPM class alone, there will be about 5 other students at a maximum.The second-year usually is packed with submissions of certain mini-thesis papers and a comprehensive viva, following which you are transported on to research. The duration provided can be of 2 years or more.
Faculty:
The faculty at the institute are supportive and experienced. Every student secures a hand of support whenever required and obtains guidance from the very beginning of the first year. You can change your guide, from the second year, as per your choice.
Campus:
The main campus is yet under establishment.IIM Rohtak, at present, is operating from Maharishi Dayanand University. Other than that, the rooms you can avail of, have sharing policies and do not support family accommodation.
Career Exposure:
Following your studies, you can either go on to become a researcher or an academician. According to the recent placement highlights the average CTC offered at the institute is around 13 LPA. You can check the detailed placement stats of the institute, on the official website.
Here is a detailed outlook of the institute. Hope this helps you understand better.
IIM Rohtak is a green campus that prioritises environmental safety, and students are not permitted to use vehicles on campus.
During COVID times, IIM Indore restricted the ability of IPM students to commute or even bring vehicles to the campus. Cycles may be permitted depending on the college, but they are currently uncommon at IIM Rohtak.
There is only one batch as of now who are currently in 2nd year. Considering the situation of COVID-19, students might not receive placements for at least 4 years. You cannot necessarily point out companies and anticipate their preference towards PGPs.
Even if the recruitment takes place, the process will be as follows:
If you have pursued BBA from IIMR, then you will remain several steps higher than someone who studied in a college not greatly renowned. There are very few chances that an IPM student would be placed lower than PGP. It might be a little less, but this is seldom seen.
Before explaining to you the CAP process convened by IIM Rohtak let’s discuss in brief what exactly CAP is.
CAP stands for Common Admission Process. It is a single admission process conducted by the following IIMs alternatively: IIM Ranchi, IIM Trichy, IIM Rohtak, IIM Raipur, IIM Udaipur, or IIM Kashipur. Under this process, the candidate has to give a WAT/PI(Written Ability Test/Personal Interview) process under CAP. All the member institutes will be given the scores of this test and based on their respective criteria, each institute will declare its own list of shortlisted candidates.
