D-STREET ka DON in CAMPUS

It was an amazing experience to have such an eminent personality amongst us. Mr. Rajesh Tambe (financial analyst) who is famous for his show “D-STREET KA DON” and other shows on channels like CNEB, UTV, Bloomberg, NDTV Profit & Zee Business was here in the campus to have a face to face discussion with all the students. To interact with a person who has been writing regularly for leading Newspapers like Dainik Bhaskar, Nai Dunia, Prabhat Khabar & Magazine like Dalal Street, Money Today and Central Chronicles was similar to having an encyclopedia of business world in front of you.

Transformation of Coal into Diamond at OCTAVE

Octave Business School has been like a field of coal, where the inputs are in the form of coal and the outputs are diamonds which cannot be easily destroyed. As mentioned above Octave has given me some  beautiful experiences like increasing my communication skills (soft skills), ability to interact with customers in case of Diwali Project and also gave us projects which increased our knowledge in various fields. Apart from that personal attention was given to each and every student which is the biggest plus of Octave. The students are from diverse backgrounds and working with each of them was a unique experience. I recently joined Abhijeet Group in my SIP and hence I am very thankful to our Directors who trusted me to work in such a renowned Organization.

Our first two weeks experience in VOLVO INDIA PVT. LTD.


It was a great experience working with SVENSKA TECHNOLOGY (Distributors for Volvo) from last two weeks, as we have really experienced how a corporate world works. It was a nice experience and sometimes tough also because we have to work for the whole day in the Nagpur’s scorching heat. It was a fabulous experience as we have really got to know how actually a real market works and how to do the sales. We are now combining theory and practice. We are really thankful to our college faculty and all the directors because they have actually helped us develop the habit of working for 8-10 hrs daily. We are determined that we will work harder in our remaining period of our SIP and in any company we join.

Octavian’s Mission Green


The purpose of doing an MBA is not just to understand how to manage 4 M's i.e. Man, Machine, Material and Money but it also emphasizes on awaking the MBA aspirants that they are equally responsible for taking care of Mother Earth as they will take care of their Organizations. This basic nourishment of culture we found at OCTAVE. "What's the use of the house if you haven't got a tolerable Planet to put it on?"




In the search of answer to this fundamental question, Octavians decided to go for "Mission Green" and they planted 40 trees inside the campus on 30th April, 2011.





They are sure that with this small inventiveness they are doing their part and may be the Spectators will also convert to active players of this mission.
