After I tweeted a few days ago about the fact that all three of the gold medallists at IIMA were from Shaheed Sukhdev College of Business Studies the College Principal reached out to me and invited me to the college to interact with the IIMA gold medallists who were visiting. The college is in Rohini and that would have been a full day expedition so I invited the students to meet the Info Edge Ventures team in our office in Gurgaon instead. They dropped in today for lunch - two faculty and five students. The five students, all SSCBS alumni and from the 2025 class of IIMA were ranked 1,2,3,5 and 7 at IIMA. Unbelievable. Five out of the top seven at IIMA are from SSCBS. There is something remarkable happening at SSCBS. I asked the students what it was. The top ranker replied “Sir we go to IIMA as underdogs so we try harder”. The faculty gave me reasons like college culture, student commitment, the teaching, selection process while admitting students, the leadership of the Principal Ms. Poonam Verma etc. Whatever it is, this hasn’t happened at IIMA earlier - five out of the top seven from the same college. And SSCBS puts dozens of students into the leading IIMs each year @SSCBS
