The explanations behind boycotting incorporate everything from disavowing of offers as on account of GPSK, Portea Medical, Peppertap and Cashcare Technologies to a deferral in joining dates as with Indus Insights and Lex Innova. LeGarde Burnett Group repudiated offers as well as the organization was observed to be fake with no legitimate office address while Mera Hunar accompanied an alternate name and employed understudies for another startup.

Since choices on boycotting are taken by the All-IITs Placement Committee (AIPC), and normally stuck to by all IITs, it is likely that the boycotting remains constant at the other more seasoned IITs too.

Infact, the consolidated rundown of blacklisted organizations at the IITs is liable to far surpass 9. Blacklisted startups alone are required to be more than 20. “These 9 are companies that had created issues at IIT Bombay," said Shreyash Gupta, placement manager at IIT Bombay

Strangely, regardless of postponing offers, Flipkart does not include among the rundown of blacklisted organizations. After a go ahead with the IITs, the ecommerce major had offered to arrange internships for affected students as a stopgap measure.
