The average salary for someone graduating from the IIM Ahmedabad Executive MBA (PGPX) is about ₹36.4 lakhs per year. That includes the full package—fixed salary, bonuses, and other add-ons that are part of most offers today.

In 2024, the highest offer went up to ₹54.8 lakhs in India. At the same time, the median salary came in at ₹35 lakhs, which shows the overall outcome stayed steady for most candidates. These numbers may shift a little each year, but the program still sees strong demand from consulting, tech, and finance firms.

This isn’t just about numbers though. The kind of roles and leadership responsibilities graduates step into make a big difference in long-term career growth. For professionals with solid experience, the program usually opens doors that are hard to reach otherwise.

Many graduates see major career shifts post-program, some move into consulting, others step into leadership roles in product, tech, or strategy. There were also a few international placements, with the highest global offer crossing ₹1 crore.

This program typically attracts professionals with 8 to 12 years of experience. As a result, recruiters often look at candidates for senior-level roles  which explains the higher-than-usual salary jump for many.

You can expect variation based on your own background, industry, and post-MBA goals, but overall, the return on investment is strong especially for those aiming to switch functions or move into leadership.
