This is the Worst b-school ever. I took admission in batch of 2019-21, paid a sum of Rs.50,000 in favour of processing fee for admission. I cancelled my admission because i got admission in a better institute, but IFIM did not refund my money till date. They said it was non-refundable, whereas according to AICTE guidelines, no institute can deny refund to a student in case he/she cancels the admission. The institute was liable to refund my fee within 7 days, bit they did not do that. I have been in constant touch with them since then, and now they have stopped replying to my emails, i have moved to court of law as they have no right to deny my refund. Let’s see what happens. I even have friends studying there who keeping telling me how the institute keeps on asking for more money from them time to time. One thing is very clear that this is an extremely money minded institution, don’t take admission there unless you just want to throw away your hard earned money.
