This page covers published NIRF entries, not every good institution in Gujarat offering programmes in this category. An institution's absence does not mean it is a poor choice. Ranks are national Management ranks, not positions within Gujarat.

Gujarat Management ranking history

Explore Gujarat institutions in the published NIRF Management lists by year. Every rank below is a national category rank, not a position within Gujarat. A lower rank number is better.

Comparisons use the preceding available Management edition and the state recorded in each year's list. Newly listed means absent from the previous Gujarat list, not necessarily a first NIRF appearance. Absence does not establish why an institution is missing, and movement alone does not explain changes in quality.
