Pacific MBA students showcased outstanding performance in the 29th Simulation Management Games organized by the All India Management Association (AIMA), New Delhi. Two teams from the Central Zone qualified for the national finals, reflecting their strong capabilities in the competition.
According to Dean Prof. Dipin Mathur, seven teams from Pacific Faculty of Commerce and Management participated in the regional competition, with two teams advancing to the national level. The teams were guided by Dr. Pushpakant Shakdvip and Dr. Ali Yawar Reha.
The event was held under the aegis of Acropolis Institute of Technology and Research, Indore, and AIMA, New Delhi. A total of 48 teams from reputed management institutes across Central India took part in the three-day contest.
The participating students included second-year candidates Sameena Bohra, Akshat Jain, Jahnvi Jain, and Lisha Jain, who secured first place. Another team consisting of Tahir Hussain, Mohit Joshi, Meet Mandot, and Archi Panwar achieved third place.
The competition was conducted in two phases, and the winners were decided based on the highest profit earned by the teams.
Dr. Narendra Singh Chawda, Coordinator of the Pacific Centre of Simulation, explained that this centre is unique in the country, designed to help students make business decisions in a simulated environment. Each management team represents a hypothetical enterprise and makes decisions regarding production, marketing, finance, and pricing policies.
These decisions are entered into the specialized software ‘Chanakya’ developed by AIMA. The software generates multiple computer-simulated options, and teams act as real managerial units, making a series of decisions sequentially. The software then presents the final outcomes of the business simulation, based on which winners and runners-up are determined.
