How this report was built
Every number comes from the NIRF data PDF that each institution submitted for its B.Tech (UG 4-year) programme, 2024 and 2025 and 2026 edition. We take the newest graduating batch for the main table and the oldest of the three batches for the trend. Placement rate is students placed divided by students who graduated in the minimum time. Rank is the NIRF Engineering rank or band for that edition.

* IGDTUW: IGDTUW's NIRF 2025 engineering PDF was not available, so these are its NIRF 2024 figures, for older batches. * Shiv Nadar: Shiv Nadar did not enter NIRF 2025 Engineering. These are its University-category figures (University rank 57), which cover all 4-year UG programmes, not only B.Tech. * ABES: These are from ABES's NIRF 2025 Overall-category submission. Its 2021-22 median salary is left out because the PDF gives two different figures. * GTBIT: Only GTBIT's NIRF 2024 data was available, so these are older batches than for most colleges. * ADGITM: These figures are from the NIRF 2026 data ADGITM submitted. The 2024-25 row may count only offers made before the submission date. * USICT: USICT does not report to NIRF on its own. These are GGSIPU's university-level engineering figures, which cover all of GGSIPU's own engineering schools.

How to read these numbers
The median is the middle salary of students who were placed, so half earned more and half less. Students who chose higher studies or skipped placements are not in it. Computer science offers usually sit above the college median, so look at your own branch. A small college with a high placement rate can suit you better than a big name where fewer students are placed.
Your plan from 2026 to 2031
2026-27: choosing and starting. Use the table to shortlist colleges, then compare your own branch, fees and city. In the first year, build strong maths and one programming language.
2027-28: second year. Pick a direction (development, data, cloud, testing) and finish two small projects. Start a public GitHub profile.
2028-29: third year. Do at least one internship and one larger project. Clear every backlog, because most companies allow none at the test.
2029-30: placement year. Practise aptitude and coding rounds, keep your CGPA above the usual 60% cut-off and apply off-campus as well as on campus.
2030-31: first job. Judge your first offer by the skills it builds, not only the package. The median salary in this report is a starting point, not a ceiling.
