The campus proposes to have 280 seats in its post graduate management programme and 750 seats in its executive education programme.

The institute will be established under a unique model of Public-Private Partnership (PPP) whereby the state government would be leasing out 70 acre of land in Knowledge City in Sector 81, Mohali for a period of 99 years at a rate of Rs 1per acre annually to ISB to establish the second campus of ISB with the support of the four founder supporters.
