Old, New and Baby IIMs: Performance, Rankings, and Career Insights
There is often confusion about categorizing the Indian Institutes of Management (IIMs) as new or baby IIMs. This article provides a detailed overview of each IIM and the category it belongs to based on its founding and establishment timeline. The IIMs are divided into three categories: Old IIMs, New IIMs, and Baby IIMs, representing distinct eras in the development of management education in India.
Additionally, factors such as NIRF Rank, the institution that mentored them, year of establishment, highest salary (according to the latest available report), average salary, and median salary provide further insights into their standing and performance.
The groupings are:
The Old IIMs, founded before 2009, represent the first generation of Indian Institutes of Management and are widely regarded as the country's top institutions for management education.
| S.NO | Old IIMs | Name Of the City | NIRF Ranking | State |

| 7 | Rajiv Gandhi Indian Institute of Management, (RGIIM), Shillong | Shillong | 26 | Meghalaya |
The second generation of IIMs, founded between 2009 and 2015, are the new IIMs. They were established to increase the IIM brand's recognition and satisfy India's rising demand for management education.
