Meeting people at IIM Indore
Meeting people at IIM Indore, in Indore, starts with the campus's own social rhythm, not a generic checklist.

What the campus is like socially
IIM Indore runs on a case-comp and section culture, where your section and your committees, not the open campus, are where most friendships actually form, and the flagship fest pulls in students from across the country.
