Overview
About GIBS Business School
Global Institute of Business Studies is a management college in Bengaluru, Karnataka. Global Institute of Business Studies is privately managed and self-financing. It is affiliated to Global Institute of Business Studies (AICTE-approved autonomous PGDM institute). Global Institute of Business Studies offers 3 programmes, 1 at undergraduate level and 2 at postgraduate level. They are Post Graduate Diploma in Management (PGDM), Dual Specialization, Bachelor of Business Administration (BBA) and Master of Business Administration (MBA). The stated sanctioned intake across these programmes totals 480 seats. GIBS Business School is a standalone AICTE-approved PGDM institute in Bengaluru, also identified as Global Institute of Business Studies. The official mandatory disclosure states 300 PGDM (Dual Specialization) seats and a 24-month duration; the official 2026-28 programme page describes a trimester curriculum and AIU MBA equivalence. The mandatory disclosure lists Dr. Pallavi Ghanshyala as Professor and Dean; a September 2025 newsletter separately names Dr. Jayanta Chakraborti as Dean, so the leadership information is internally inconsistent. Facilities explicitly reported include 10 classrooms, 3 tutorial rooms, a computer centre with 65 desktops and 50 laptops, and library/e-library resources. The 2026-27 AICTE approval page is linked from the institute's official approval page, while the retrieved mandatory-disclosure document is titled AY 2025-26/2026-27 and states 300 sanctioned PGDM seats. The resolved unit is the standalone AICTE-approved PGDM institute at the Mylasandra campus. The official site also advertises a separate MBA/BBA campus and a PGDM campus address; those locations/programme claims were not merged into this unit's PGDM identity. The 2026-27 AICTE approval link is published on the college's approval page, but the approval PDF's exact intake was not independently extracted here. The college's 2025-26 mandatory disclosure reports PGDM (Dual Specialization), 300 seats, 24 months and NBA accreditation valid 1 January 2025 to 31 December 2028. AIU's February 2026 list explicitly names this institute and gives equivalence validity 1 January 2026 to 31 December 2028.
