Pankaj has been performing consistently well in IIMB not only in academics, but also in business competitions. He was the recipient of the merit scholarship during the course. He bagged the third spot in Vista – Numero Uno, a national-level leadership and boardroom simulation event organized by IIMB. He was the winner of IIMB business case challenge ‘FDI vs Make in India’ and proposed a GTM strategy for an overseas software company; was the winner of the inter-college national business quiz ‘Concours 2023’ conducted by Symbiosis Institute of Management (SIBM), Bangalore, and was runner-up in the intra-college business quiz ‘iQNights’ conducted by the Quizzing Club, IIMB.
