Firstly, there are no minimum marks required in JEE Advanced to get into IIT Delhi, Bombay, or any other IIT. Instead, the JEE cutoff is decided based on the performance of the students. The total questions, as well as the pattern of the exam, change every year, and thus the cutoff fluctuates every year.
To be on the safe side, try scoring more than 50% to secure admission into IIT Delhi, IIT Bombay, IIT Kharagpur, and IIT Roorkee CS branch (general category).

As far as placements are concerned, VLSI, VIPES, and Telecom have the best placements.
Every IIT has had its fair share of fame and so has IIT Kharagpur. People choose any institute preferred by the masses and not because they want to join it genuinely. This is exactly why computer science, electrical, mechanical, and chemical are the most preferred branches.
Once IIT Kharagpur was the most preferred IIT but with changing times, the choice shifted to city life and people started preferring Delhi, Madras, or Kanpur. People are hesitant about choosing KGP also because of the very less industry touch and its remote location.
Today, Kharagpur is no longer the most preferred IIT and there are hardly a few IITians from the eastern part of the country. Despite that, IIT KGP will continue to carry on its legacy and be the home to exceptional talents that are not just after grades but much more. It will continue to give birth to brilliant people in academia, industry, entrepreneurship, and even extra-academics.
JEE Advanced cutoff changes every year and one can only depend on last year cutoffs to make predictions. There are no specific marks that will guarantee your admission but once can refer to past cutoffs for the same. IIT Kharagpur CSE cutoff 2022 is tabulated below:
