Should you pick MBA Finance and HR at CMRIT?
This course suits students who want finance or HR work in Bangalore and can handle entrance based admission.
Pick it if:
You want finance or HR work: the course has finance and HR clubs, and semester 3 starts both elective sets.
You want Bangalore access: the campus is near ITPL, so companies and speakers are close to the college.
You need a hostel option: CMRIT lists separate hostel facilities, and the fee toggle shows the living cost.
You want low fees: the no-hostel fee is INR 1.28 Lakhs, so the ROI tile is strong.
Skip it if:
You want a pure finance MBA: the official pathway pairs finance with business analytics, so check electives before paying.
You miss KEA option entry: the seat list will move without you, so fill choices before 18 Sep 2026.
You count on top salary: the MBA pay range is INR 5 LPA to INR 7.5 LPA, not only the highest offer.
You need a fixed hostel price: CMRIT confirms hostel, but the room fee must be checked before admission.
Counsellor's advice
If you want finance or HR in Bangalore at a low fee, take it after checking electives. If you need only one specialisation, ask the admission office first.

FAQs on CMRIT MBA Finance and HR
Straight answers to what students ask before they decide.
Is CMRIT MBA Finance and HR worth the fee?▾
Yes, if you want a low-cost MBA in Bangalore. The full fee without hostel is INR 1.28 Lakhs and the ROI tile uses INR 6.5 LPA as pay, so the fee is light against the salary used here. Check the hostel toggle if you plan to stay on campus.
Should I take this course for finance jobs?▾
Yes, if you are fine with a finance and analytics pathway. CMRIT lists finance electives from semester 3, and the MBA pay range is INR 5 LPA to INR 7.5 LPA. Read the elective list before you pay, because this is not a pure finance-only course.
Is this MBA right for HR work?▾
Yes, if you want HR subjects with general MBA training. The course lists recruitment, industrial relations, change management and compensation papers. The batch has 120 seats, so use clubs, projects and internships early. Ask the department how many HR roles came in the latest drive.
Should I join if my PGCET rank is near 300?▾
It depends on your category and route. The rank checker uses 300 as the General PGCET guide, so a rank just near it is not fully safe. Keep CMRIT in your option list, but add safer choices below and check every KEA round.
Who should skip this MBA at CMRIT?▾
Skip it if you want only one narrow specialisation from the start. The official course pairs finance or HR with business analytics and core MBA papers. If that mix does not suit you, ask for the semester 3 and semester 4 elective list before paying.
Is Bangalore right for internships during this MBA?▾
Yes, the city helps if you use it well. CMRIT is in Kundalahalli near ITPL, and the course uses guest talks, clubs and internships. The campus location alone will not get you a job, so start projects and networking in the first year.
Is the 120-seat batch right for me?▾
No, 120 seats is manageable for an MBA class, but you still need to stand out. The placement bureau covers all students, and the pay range shown here is INR 5 LPA to INR 7.5 LPA. Build finance, HR or analytics proof through projects before interviews start.
Should I wait one year for a better MBA seat?▾
Wait only if you can raise your exam score and have a clear target. This seat has a low no-hostel fee of INR 1.28 Lakhs, so the cost risk is lower. If you already clear the cutoff and want Bangalore, joining is a practical call.
How do I get admission to this MBA?▾
You need a bachelor degree, the mark rule and one accepted exam score. KEA counselling uses Karnataka PGCET ranks, while the college also lists KMAT, CMAT, CAT and MAT. After allotment, pay the fee and report with documents for the final check.
What is the full fee for this course?▾
The no-hostel full fee shown here is INR 1.28 Lakhs for 2 years. With hostel and mess, the estimate becomes INR 3.08 Lakhs. The fee block separates tuition, university and hostel cost, so check that table before arranging a loan.
Can I pay the MBA fee in parts?▾
Yes, the main tuition fee is shown as INR 60,000 a year for 2 years. Hostel and mess are also shown year by year in the toggle. Ask the fee office for the exact payment dates before the seat fee deadline.
Should I count on scholarships before deciding?▾
The calculator lists waivers from INR 20,000 to INR 80,000. Category and income decide most schemes, and the result bar shows your estimated net course fee. Keep income and category papers ready, because portals can close before admission work ends.
Students become eligible for placement opportunities after their second semester, aided by TYL sessions for interview preparation. This year, over 20 companies participated in MBA placements, securing positions for about 70% of students, with salary packages ranging from 3.5 to 7 lakhs, and the highest at 12 lakhs annually. The average salary is 6 lakhs, with an overall placement rate of 85% across all departments. A one-month internship is mandatory, with companies like KPMG and Hitachi offering roles in finance, HR, and marketing.
Interns receive stipends between 10,000 to 25,000 per month. Scholarships are available for meritorious students, managed by a dedicated cell that also assists with government scholarships. Fees vary by admission type: Management quota students pay 4,50,000 INR, while PGCET students pay about 2,00,000 INR, with 50,000 INR to the government and 36,000 INR as college fees. Scholarships like the SSP grant 23,000 INR per year, with potential full coverage for ST-SC students.
Annual fees are 2,25,000 INR for Management students and approximately 1,30,000 INR for PGCET students, depending on their category. The college provides placement training, resulting in successful placement for 70% of students.
