MICA reports 100% placement for the 2024-26 batch, with 197 students placed. That is the MICA placement rate for the final season. The report does not print how many students sat the process out, so ask MICA for the number of students who took part.
Yes. In MICA placement lists, Google appears among the recruiters on the PGDM-C page and in its summer placement highlights. The same pages name Amazon, Deloitte, L'Oreal, Samsung, ITC and Titan.
The MICA placement highlights show every package measure rising from the 2023-25 batch to the 2024-26 batch. The median rose by about 9%, from ₹18.00 lakh to ₹19.57 lakh. The table compares the two final placement seasons. Both are MICA placement highlights from MICA's own reports.
| Measure | Batch 2024-26 | Batch 2023-25 |
|---|---|---|
| Median CTC | ₹19.57 lakh | ₹18.00 lakh |
| Average CTC | ₹20.12 lakh | ₹19.23 lakh |
| Highest CTC | ₹45.67 lakh | ₹40.92 lakh |
| Top 25 average | ₹34.00 lakh | ₹31.74 lakh |
| Top 50 average | ₹29.26 lakh | ₹27.37 lakh |
| Top 100 average | ₹24.79 lakh | ₹23.19 lakh |
| Recruiters | 91 | 92 |
The MICA placement highlights show no lowest package and no count of students who stayed out of placements. They also show no split between the PGDM-C and the PGDM, because MICA reports them together as the PGP. Read the median and the top-100 average to judge the middle of the batch, and not the highest CTC.
MICA placement statistics for 2024-26 show FMCG, e-commerce and BFSI as the largest hirers, and consumer tech as the best payer. The 197 offers split across six sectors. These MICA placement statistics are the final season's. The table gives the offers and the average and highest CTC for each.
| MICA sector | Offers | Average and highest CTC |
|---|---|---|
| FMCG, FMCD and E-commerce | 53 | ₹20.56 lakh and ₹36.22 lakh |
| BFSI and Fintech | 34 | ₹19.84 lakh and ₹38.60 lakh |
| Media and Entertainment | 34 | ₹17.21 lakh and ₹22.80 lakh |
| Consulting and Tech | 26 | ₹22.65 lakh and ₹29.04 lakh |
| Consumer Tech | 23 | ₹25.09 lakh and ₹45.67 lakh |
| Others | 27 | ₹16.22 lakh and ₹23.16 lakh |
BFSI and fintech grew from 22 offers in 2023-25 to 34 in 2024-26. Consumer tech grew from 14 to 23, and media from 27 to 34. FMCG and e-commerce still has the most offers, 53 in 2024-26. MICA groups its sectors a little differently from year to year, so treat the comparison as rough.
The MICA highest placement package is ₹45.67 lakh for the 2024-26 batch, and it came from consumer tech. Few students receive such an offer, so plan around the median of ₹19.57 lakh. The MICA highest placement package is an outlier.
MICA lists roles such as Brand Manager, Product Marketing, Digital Marketing Campaign Manager, Media Planning and Buying, Data Scientist, Strategy and Consulting Analyst, and Management Trainee. The roles span marketing, analytics, consulting, strategy and communication.
MICA salary packages average ₹20.12 lakh, and the top 100 students average ₹24.79 lakh. The MICA placement package falls steeply after the top 25.
