XIMB is the better option. It has a legacy of over 31 years and boasts of an excellent 7500+ alumni base. XIMB alumni are dominating the corporate world all across the globe. 

All major MNCs visit XIMB placements. Students are offered diverse profiles from reputed companies. During the 2022 placement drive, the average CTC offered was INR 17.54 LPA, and the highest CTC offered was INR 32.21 LPA. 

In terms of academics, placements, extracurricular and alumni connections, XIMB is certainly better among these options.
