If you are getting the same branches, then choosing NIT Kurukshetra over VIT Vellore is a better decision. Here is why
VIT Vellore is a decent college but if I had to choose between NIT and VIT, I would have chosen NIT Kurukshetra.
Honestly, this is not even a comparison. VIT (any campus) is way better than Heritage Institute of Technology. Actually, Heritage Institute of Technology is not even the best college in the Kolkata region. It is the Institute of Engineering and Management (IEM).
Heritage Institute of Technology is obviously cheaper than VIT to study and also closer to your home if you are from the eastern region of India. You will get a job after graduating with a starting salary of around INR 3.5 lakhs per annum. If you have financial constraints and you are ok with this kind of starting salary then Heritage Institute of Technology will not disappoint you.
However, if you are well enough to pay for the fee of VIT, then in no way you should even think of Heritage Institute of Technology. The environment you will get there are obviously the placements of VIT are way better than Heritage Institute of Technology to even consider them for comparison.
First of all, don’t trust the official figures regarding rankings for colleges. They are misleading and are meant for advertisement purposes only. No good college needs to show itself at the top of the rankings.
Now comparing VIT and Anna University, Anna University is definitely better in the ranking than VIT. Its CEG branch is at another level and not on par with VIT at all. Some points that support this opinion are:
Student quality at Anna University is better than at VIT.
VIT is a private university therefore more expensive than AU
The curriculum is harder in AU than in VIT, but the assessments are direct and easy here.
Placement opportunities are better at AU because of the variety of companies that visit the campus in contrast to the mass IT recruits that happen in VIT.
All these points strongly favor my opinion. One thing to keep in mind here is that when I say Anna University is better I mean the main campuses (CEG, MIT, ACT) not the affiliated colleges.
VIT is an ABET-certified institution that is acclaimed by only a few universities and this itself is a big achievement. But now the situation is not so good and VIT is slowly losing its name and reputation in the industry.
With their current system of conducting exams and a new system of counseling, the quality of its students is drastically decreasing. They are counseling students who are still preparing for JEE Advanced and forcing them to pay even before the results are out.
Due to which most students withdraw their names and this creates a large number of vacancies and they are not allotted on the basis of merit.
Also, the placements of NITs and BITS are excellent compared to VIT and the average packages offered to the students of these colleges are much better than the packages offered to the students of VIT.
VIT Vellore is considered one of the best technical universities in India. It has a student population of 24000 students. It is ranked 28 overall and 15 for BTech by NIRF 2020.
Sardar Patel College of Engineering (SPCE) is the 5th oldest engineering college in India. It is ranked 201 among top BTech colleges by NIRF 2020 Rankings. It is affiliated to the University of Mumbai.

Between these two options, NIT Trichy is definitely better. Here are the reasons why.
