About IIM Raipur
If you walk into our Naya Raipur campus in the late afternoon, you will probably notice how the local red gravel paths hold the day's heat long after the sun starts dipping. The architecture here feels quite deliberate, built to handle the intense Chhattisgarh summers with wide overhangs and courtyard layouts that channel the breeze. We do not sit in an academic bubble either; the local industrial hubs of Bhilai and Durg are close enough that corporate leaders regularly drive down for evening panel discussions without needing an overnight stay.
