The chairman of AICTE, Prof Anil Sahasrabuddhe has said that scrutiny of colleges conducting MBA courses will be done to ensure quality. Affiliation of colleges failing in it will be withdrawn.

Sahasrabuddhe hinted that seats of colleges starting MBA courses from the new session will be limited to ensure quality of the course.

The AICTE has approved 40 new colleges for the 2022-23 session. Highest numbers of MBA colleges (20) have been approved in Indore. Over a dozen colleges offering MBA will be starting in Bhopal whereas remaining colleges have been approved in Jabalpur, Dewas and Gwalior.

Sources in the AICTE said that new colleges would not be allowed more than 60 seats in the beginning. Increase in number of seats will be done only after ensuring quality check.
