Post Graduate Diploma in Management (Banking and Financial Services)
(AICTE Recognized)

Admission 2015-2017

Established in 1969 as an autonomous institution by the Reserve Bank of India in consultation with the Government of India, NIBM is the apex institution in banking and finance. NIBM has its own campus with all modern educational, institutional and residential facilities and a library.

Leveraging its core competencies in research, training and consulting to the banking and financial services sector, NIBM started the Post-Graduate Diploma in Management (Banking and Financial Services) with the objective of developing young executives specialized in core business operations and functions in banking and financial services. PGDM (B & FS), held on residential basis, is providing to the financial system a pool of talented youngsters thoroughly trained and prepared with Analytical Skills & Perspectives in Banking and Finance for directly taking up managerial responsibilities.

Eligibility
NIBM will use scores of CAT 2014 / ATMA (February 2015) / CMAT (2015) for short-listing candidates for GDPI.
The candidate must hold a Bachelor's Degree, with at least 50% marks or equivalent CGPA, awarded by any of the Universities incorporated by an act of the central or state legislature in India or other educational institutions established by an act of parliament or declared to be deemed as a University under Section 3 of the UGC Act, 1956, or possess an equivalent qualification recognized by the Ministry of HRD, Government of India. The percentage of marks obtained by the candidate in the bachelor's degree would be calculated based on the practice followed by the university/institution from where the candidate has obtained the degree. In case the candidates are awarded grades/CGPA instead of marks, the conversion of grades/CGPA to percentage of marks would be based on the procedure certified by the university/institution from where they have obtained the bachelor's degree. In case the university/ institution does not have any scheme for converting CGPA into equivalent marks, the equivalence would be established by dividing the candidates CGPA by the maximum possible CGPA and multiplying the result with 100.
Candidates appearing for the final year of bachelor's degree/equivalent qualification examination
and those who have completed degree requirement and are awaiting results can also apply.
Such candidates must produce a certificate from the Principal/Head of the Department/Registrar/ Director of the University/Institution certifying that the candidate is currently in the final year/is awaiting final results and has obtained atleast 50% marks or equivalent based on latest available grades/marks. Such candidates, if selected, will be allowed to join the programme provisionally only if they submit a certificate latest by June 30, 2015 from the Principal/Registrar of their college/institute (issued on or before June 30, 2015) stating that they have completed all the requirements (the results may, however, be awaited) for obtaining the bachelor's degree/equivalent qualification on the date of issue of the certificate. Their admission will be confirmed only when they submit the mark sheet and a certificate of having passed the bachelor's degree/equivalent qualification referred to in the certificate issued by Principal/Registrar of their college/institute with atleast 50% marks. The deadline for submission of the mark sheet and the certificate is October 31, 2015. Non-fulfillment of this condition will automatically result in the cancellation of the provisional admission. NIBM would not allow any candidate to join the programme in case the candidate is unable to complete all the requirements for a bachelor degree on or before June 30, 2015.
Instances of provision of incorrect information and process violation detected at any stage of the selection process will lead to disqualification of the candidate from the selection process. If such instances go undetected during the current selection process but are detected in subsequent years, such disqualification will take place with retrospective effect.

Admission Procedure
Candidates seeking admission to the PGDM (B & FS) of NIBM should appear for CAT 2014/ATMA (Feb 2015)/CMAT (2015).
