Two colleges with similar totals can be very different places to study, so it is worth reading across the row rather than only looking at the rank. TLR RPC GO OI PERCEPTION College 30% 30% 20% 10% 10% Indian Institute of Management Sambalpur 80.96 20.77 84.61 80.34 31.21 XIM University 73.42 23.33 91.18 60.69 13.89 Siksha `O` Anusandhan 74.52 17.19 72.08 75.50 13.89 Kalinga Institute of Industrial Technology 75.29 25.85 59.51 77.76 6.47 IMI Bhubaneswar 61.41 16.14 81.22 64.49 2.90 TLR Teaching, Learning & Resources RPC Research and Professional Practice GO Graduation Outcomes OI Outreach and Inclusivity PERCEPTION Perception Green marks a score of 70 or above; red marks below 35. Perception is scored from a survey of academics, employers and the public, so newer and regional institutions often score low there even when their teaching and outcomes are strong — read a low Perception number with that in mind rather than as a verdict on the campus.

aglasem Top MBA and Management Colleges in Odisha · NIRF 2025 How to use this list • Entrance exams. CAT is required for the IIMs and most top institutes. XAT, NMAT, SNAP, CMAT and MAT are accepted elsewhere, and several states run their own MBA entrance tests. • A rank is not a ranking of your experience. NIRF measures the institution as a whole, not the individual specialisation, such as finance or marketing. An institution ranked lower overall may still be the stronger choice for the one you want. • Participation is voluntary. A good college missing from this list may simply not have submitted data. Absence is not evidence of poor quality. • Bands hide detail. Inside 101–150 or 201–300 the colleges are listed alphabetically, so position in that list carries no meaning at all. • Check the year. These are the India Rankings 2025 figures, released September 2025. The 2026 edition is expected later in 2026 and will supersede them. Compiled from NIRF India Rankings 2025, including the alphabetical rank-band listings, with year-on-year movement calculated against NIRF 2024. Figures are reproduced as published.
