The official mandatory-disclosure page lists an Extension of Approval for 2026-27, but the target-session approved intake and AICTE Permanent Id were not available in the retrieved text. No AIU equivalence listing for this institute was found, so the programme remains PGDM rather than MBA-equivalent. The official site states 2026-28 admissions are open.
