Mr. Anil Ambani, Group Chairman & CEO of Reliance Anil Dhirubhai Ambani Group

INTRODUCTION

Sri Balaji Society is proud of her children viz. Management Institutions / Colleges. And each child, that is each institute and college, is important to the top management. That is why Prof. (Col.) A. Balasubramanian, who is the founder of the society holds the triple responsibilities viz. the President of Sri Balaji Society; the Executive Director of BIMM and the Dean of BITM, BIIB and BIMHRD (a description about the sister institutions, in a nutshell, appear in this brochure. Please visit their website for more informaiton).

While each Management Institute of Sri Balaji Society is an individual entity, the quality standards of faculties, examinations, IT training and campus placement activities are centrally co-ordinated. That is why besides the Directors of the Institutes, we have Prof. Suresh Chandra Padhy, the Director (Academics) , Prof. Biju Pillai, the Director (Information Technology), Prof. Dimple Saini, the Director (Corporate Relations) and Prof. B. Paramdhaman (Joint Director) of Sri Balaji Society to oversee, co-ordinate and exercise control centrally just like the corporate headquarters in the interest of all the students of the society.

It means that each institution is important and enjoys equal status and attention from the top management. We select the best possible candidates for all the Institutes from amongst the common pool of all the candidates applied for admission to any or all the institutes of Sri Balaji Society; although such a consideration arises only when a candidate is not selected for admission to the particular institute to which he or she may have applied originally. By doing so, we are in no way taking away any opportunity from anyone but are providing an additional opportunity to get selected in any of the prestigious institutes of Sri Balaji Society.

In fact, we are enhancing the opportunity of those candidates who may not stand in the merit list of BIMM to get additional chances to be selected to our equally prestigious sister institutes, subject to the following conditions: -

(a) That they are eligible for the same. To become eligible, they should have opted for the institute(s) (one can opt for either one institute or for all the institutes as per his/her choice in the application form) for us to consider them.

(b) That vacancy exists in those Institute(s) for such a consideration.

(d) That such an option will become operative only when it becomes clear that the candidate who has applied for admission to BIMM is unlikely to get admission on merit list drawn for BIMM.

Centralized Admission process
The admission process for the management institutes of Sri Balaji Society will be undertaken centrally in the centres mentioned in the prospectus.
