XLRI’s Delhi-NCR campus is located in Jhajjar district at Naurangpur which is 25 km from Gurugram and is centrally connected to Delhi, Gurgaon and Rewari.
While announcing the admission for the first batch of Delhi-NCR campus, Fr. P. Christie S.J., director, XLRI-Xavier School of Management said, “XLRI is India’s first B-school and for seventy years we had just one campus at Jamshedpur. With India slated to become the fifth-largest economy in the world in the near future, there is a concomitant need for more business leaders. XLRI took a strategic decision to expand its footprint across the country and set up new campuses in the North, West and Southern parts of India. We are glad to announce that XLRI’s Delhi-NCR campus is all set to start with 120 students for Business Management programme from 2020 academic session after the AICTE approval process is completed.”
