Are there any reservations in the NMIMS?
NMIMS is a private university founded by the Gujaratis and so, in the initial days, it remained with a greater portion of reservation (50%) for Gujarati’s. But, later on, this reservation comes to an end & now it follows only 2 reservation stated as follows:
- Reservation for female candidates (30%)
- Minor part of a reservation for widows/ wards of armed forces personnel killed/disabled in war/action or for Kashmiri migrants
Being a private university NMIMS has not had reservations based on caste; financial background; or management quota.
This does not mean that NMIMS would not comply with any kind of reservation in the future. It is a private university run by a trust and all the decisions would be taken by the members of the trust to further the university brand value.

Does IPM IIM Indore have reservations in the final selection?
One of my cousins studied at IIM Indore. According to him, yes, IPM IIM Indore has reservations in the final selection round.
IIM Indore, just like any other government institution, follows the reservation policies that are set up by the Government of India for colleges across the country. And, the same is followed for admission into the IPM course of IIM Indore as well.
However, even though this matters, I would suggest you not think about all these factors as of now and aim at scoring the best that you can.
Is there any reservation for home state candidates for XLRI and is there any preference for girls in XLRI?
To get into XLRI, one has to make it to their merit list. You are wrong to believe that one has to secure a sort of special preference just because they are a "home candidate" in particular.
XLRI neither is under any such compulsion nor does it reserve any seats for any candidate like that. As a matter of fact, no institute does that. Just like the boys, the girls who are admitted at XLRI too possess the apt skills and smartness it takes to reach there. Whatever is taught to girls is similar to what is taught to the boys too. Believing in a misconception like that should be corrected right away.
To conclude, all I would like to say is that be it XLRI or any other institute- not even a single one of them in today's time cares about gender preference. If you are smart, you would be welcomed and respected everywhere.

The reservation criterion as defined for the coming year. The important points are as follows:

- A quota for candidates who opt for higher education is also there.
- Reservation is also different in terms of different courses.
A clear description is as follows:

50% seats are reserved for people who have certain work experience of more than 3 years. |

MPhil |
50% seats for people having 2 years experience |
|

Some colleges like ISB, BITS Pilani, XLRI, SPJAIN, etc. do not have a caste-based reservation. Is it not mandatory for all colleges in India?
BITS Pilani is affiliated with the UGC which is why a caste-based reservation is required for the enrollment of students. It also has received funding in the form of Science and Technology Projects (UGC Major and Minor Projects).
As for now, the funding released for BITS has been stopped by the UGC, and BITS Pilani does not receive any financial support from any of the government authorities. But, BITS Pilani does not follow the criterion of selecting students based on caste-based reservations. A case has been filed against BITS for the same reason.
A major reason why these Institutes refuse to follow the reservation-based criterion because they are Private and do not receive any funding from the Government authorities. Due to privatization, reservation rules are not mandatory for these institutes.
These Institutes can follow any criterion for their selection process based on their choices. No Government body has the authority to force these institutes to follow and include a caste-based reservation in their system.
