GS IBD India - Best Industry Coverage?
Hey everyone, first post here onWSO.
I'll be joiningGSIBDteam herein Bengaluru, India, likely in the M&A division. Wanted to know the best industry coverage group there.
Now, from what I could gather from multiple discussions here is that GS'TMTcoverageis regarded the best by many. However, after talks with multiple folks (mostly 1st and 2nd-year analysts) from my office, I learnt that it's actually the chill-est division in the office. Now what this means is that while in terms of hours, it's the most relaxed, but the chances of a convert to afront officein London (or any other region for that matter) gets reduced drastically. So much so that they may not send a single analyst there.
I understand we do not have too many Indians here on the forum, but I feel this can be answered by anyGSIBDemployee who has worked with the Indian team anytime in their stint. Any help in this regard would be helpful. Thanks in advance.
Note: I do not have any preference as such, however, any group which offers me the greatest chance to move to a front office, will be of top priority.

Congrats man--the team that is the best to join in Bangalore is probably different than the one inNYCor London. The team that gives you closest exposure toFOis probably going to be the most impact for your career imo
Thanks. It helps.
Bump
Congrats on the offer and wish you the best transitioning into the role!
Currently a Master's student at a UK target, can I PM you for some advice onGSBengaluru IBD?
Of course, please, go ahead.
@OP - Know of a friend who was working with the healthcare London group for c.2 years and recently transitioned to the LondonFO. Spoke highly of the team. Might want to look into that
Congrats mate, best of luck! I'm currently a bachelors of finance student at a target in Australia, can I pm you reGS班加罗尔吗?
Just found this thread randomly. Worked atGSin London and had close interaction with the Bangalore Teams throughout as they are always involved, both in pitches and live deals, so you certainly get good exposure, albeit might sometimes be treated as a bit of back-office / back-up team. Definitely possible to move to London if you are liked by the team and want to make the switch - there were Bangalore people joining in all majorIBD/ classic groups (have seen cases inTMT, Industrials, CR, Healthcare, RE and NatRes). Downside is that you usually get downgraded, i.e. you work in Bangalore 1-2y and might have to start as Analyst 1 in London again. Not a major deal breaker necessarily, but should be mentioned as I always felt this is one of these sneakyGSmoves.
