Introduction

Jaipuria Institute of Management Celebrates the Class of 2026 Across Lucknow, Noida, Jaipur and Indore.

More than 1,300 students walked across the convocation stage this year at Jaipuria Institute of Management. For some, it marked the culmination of years of perseverance. For others, it was the beginning of careers that will take them across industries, cities, and continents.

Across its campuses in Lucknow, Noida, Jaipur, and Indore, Jaipuria celebrated the graduation of the Class of 2026—a cohort entering a world being reshaped by artificial intelligence, automation, sustainability challenges, and unprecedented global opportunities.

United by Jaipuria’s guiding philosophy of being Student First, AI Native, and Career Ready, these graduates leave not only with a management degree but with the confidence to lead in a rapidly changing future.

A Convocation Season of Milestones

The 2026 convocation season marked an important chapter in Jaipuria’s journey.

The Jaipuria Lucknow campus celebrated its landmark 30th Convocation, while Indore hosted its 14th Convocation. Together with Noida and Jaipur, the four campuses conferred diplomas upon more than 1,300 graduates, including scholars from the Fellow Programme in Management (FPM).

The ceremonies brought together distinguished industry leaders, policymakers, faculty, alumni, parents, and students to celebrate achievement, resilience, and ambition.

Addressing the graduating class across campuses was a common message from Chairman Mr. Sharad Jaipuria and Vice Chairman Mr. Shreevats Jaipuria: graduation is not the finish line, but the beginning of a lifelong pursuit of excellence, learning, and leadership.

Built for a New World of Work

The Class of 2026 graduates into one of the most dynamic employment landscapes in history.

As organizations embrace AI, digital transformation, and new business models, employers increasingly seek professionals who can combine technological understanding with critical thinking, adaptability, and leadership.

This year’s graduating batch demonstrated exactly that.

The result was a placement season that reflected both capability and industry confidence.

These outcomes reinforce the institute’s commitment to creating graduates who are not just employable, but future-ready.

One Jaipuria. Four Campuses. Global Standards.

Few business school groups in India can claim a distinction that all four Jaipuria campuses now share.

Lucknow, Noida, Jaipur, and Indore are all AACSB-accredited, placing them among the top 6% of business schools globally.

The institute’s standing is further reflected in the 2025 NIRF rankings:

• Noida: 41st
• Lucknow: 67th
• Jaipur: 74th
• Indore: 101–125 Band

Together, these recognitions validate Jaipuria’s focus on academic quality, student outcomes, research excellence, and industry relevance.

Diversity That Mirrors India

The Class of 2026 represents the diversity of modern India.

Students came from more than 100 districts across the country, bringing perspectives from metropolitan cities, emerging towns, and rural communities into the same classrooms.

Women accounted for 55% of Jaipur’s graduating batch and nearly 45% of Noida’s cohort, reflecting the growing role of women leaders in management education and industry.

This diversity creates richer classroom discussions, stronger peer learning, and graduates who are better prepared to lead in complex business environments.

Research That Creates Impact

Behind every successful business school lies a strong culture of knowledge creation.

Over the past year, Jaipuria faculty across campuses produced more than 450 research publications, with significant representation in ABDC-A, Scopus-indexed, and internationally recognised journals.

Faculty collaborations extended across the United States, United Kingdom, Germany, Norway, China, Italy, the Netherlands, UAE, Australia, Canada, and other global academic ecosystems.

Student researchers also made remarkable contributions, presenting papers at leading institutions and publishing case studies and research in respected academic platforms.

The message is clear: Jaipuria is not only consuming knowledge—it is helping create it.

Going Global

International exposure continued to be a defining feature of the Jaipuria experience.

Students participated in exchange programmes, global immersions, international conferences, and cross-border learning initiatives across Europe, Southeast Asia, the Middle East, and beyond.

New academic partnerships expanded opportunities for collaborative research, student mobility, faculty exchange, and global learning.

As business becomes increasingly borderless, Jaipuria’s international focus ensures graduates are prepared to operate confidently in multicultural and global environments.

Learning Beyond the Classroom

Management education is ultimately measured by the impact it creates on society.

Across campuses, students participated in community engagement initiatives focused on education, sustainability, skill development, livelihood generation, and social inclusion.

Thousands of hours were dedicated to serving communities through partnerships with NGOs, village development projects, mentoring programmes, environmental initiatives, and social innovation activities.

As a signatory to the UN Principles for Responsible Management Education, Jaipuria continues to nurture leaders who understand that business success and social responsibility must go hand in hand.

The Journey Ahead

Convocation marks an ending, but more importantly, it marks a beginning.

The graduates of 2026 leave Jaipuria carrying more than academic credentials. They leave with experiences shaped by rigorous learning, industry engagement, global exposure, research, innovation, and service.

They now step into boardrooms, consulting firms, startups, banks, manufacturing companies, social enterprises, and international careers across multiple continents.

And wherever they go, they carry with them the values that define Jaipuria Institute of Management: curiosity, integrity, adaptability, and the courage to lead.

For the Class of 2026, the next classroom is the world itself.
