Yes. Meritshot's Post Graduate Program in Investment Banking is fully accessible to learners in Mumbai via weekend live online sessions. The program runs for 9 months and covers financial modeling, valuation, M&A, LBO, and deal execution — no classroom attendance or daily commute required.
The course runs on a weekend live session format — Saturday and Sunday classes conducted online by active finance professionals. All sessions are recorded and available for lifetime access, so Mumbai learners working Monday–Friday at companies in BKC, Nariman Point, or Lower Parel can study without disrupting their jobs.
The program is 9 months long, structured across 9 core modules — from global financial systems and Excel modeling in the early weeks to capstone projects and placement preparation in the final stretch. Total content hours exceed 600, spread across 200+ live sessions.
The program is delivered fully online. Meritshot has operational presence in Mumbai, and in-person info sessions and alumni meetups are periodically held in BKC and Lower Parel. Day-to-day learning — live classes, mentorship, doubt sessions — happens on the online platform.
Each batch is capped at 25–30 students. This is intentionally smaller than most institutes, which run batches of 150–200. The smaller size ensures every Mumbai learner gets direct mentor access, personalised feedback on models, and attention during mock interviews.
New batches form regularly. Fill out the counseling form on this page and a Meritshot IB counselor will share the upcoming batch schedule, including the specific start date available for Mumbai enrollment, within 24 hours.
