XLRI introduced India to management studies. But now it's done being just another B-school

Back in 1949, XLRI introduced India to management studies.  Since then, it has managed to become one of the most sought after B-schools in the country. For decades, it was like the dependable elder statesman of Indian management education. 

But now, XLRI wants to be anything but just another business school.

In the last two decades, there has been an explosion of MBA seats across the country.  Now, XLRI doesn’t want to simply add more management seats mindlessly. It wants to introduce programmes it thinks are relevant. Some of which, have nothing to do with management studies at all.
