SRCC is an established and well-known institution affiliated with the University of Delhi. The institution has a pretty good faculty and the curriculum being taught there is also considered to be of high standards. If you are planning to prepare a solid CV for your career, I would suggest that you opt for a course of your interest at SRCC. 

These are just some views I gathered by interacting with students of these institutes. 

• The curriculum followed at IPM has been mocked by several candidates because of its diversity. It does not include specific topics for a particular specialization. 
• However, for the batch of 2016-21, a new curriculum has been introduced by the authorities which is more focussed on areas like Economics, Quantitative aptitude, Philosophy, Psychology, and Sociology. 
• These areas are also considered to be the 5 pillars of management at the PGDM level by many individuals working in the field of business and management.
• The placement of the institution is also quite good with the average package approximately equal to the amount which usually gets offered to candidates studying at the Postgraduate level. 

My brother was eligible for admission at SRCC but instead, he opted for IPM because it was favoring his interests, environment, and several other factors. You can too make a decision based on your interests and several other factors which you think are important for your career.
