If you are evaluating the institutes based on placements, then you will be pleased to know that IIT Delhi ranks 28th position in the Top 50 of Times Higher Education Global Employability University Ranking and Survey.
However, I feel placements should not be the determining factor as the IIT tag will get you placed with a good package irrespective of whichever IIT you choose. The primary determining factor should be your inclination towards a specific branch. If you target a specific branch just based on placements, you are likely to lose interest soon. This will result in a frustrated career. In fact, I have seen many students opt out of CS just because they realize that it’s not their cup of tea and go for average branches that intrigue them genuinely.
Here is a comparative analysis of placements of both the institutes

IIIT Naya Raipur CSE is a better option, in terms of placements. According to the recent placement highlights, the highest and average CTC for the branch is INR 10.5 LPA and INR 43 LPA, respectively. The placement rate for CSE is around 100%. Microsoft, Deloitte, Adobe, American Express, Ericsson, Capgemini, etc. visit IIIT Naya Raipur placements.
IIT Indore CSE department is becoming stronger in terms of placements only and its curriculum is still very lacking. The placements too can be much better especially for Graduate Schools in the US.
Many students have this preconceived notion that it’s much easier to get into a Masters program than Bachelor’s. Also students come for consultation quite late sometimes even in their final semester. Students should approach the faculty in their 3rd year so that the professors can help them during placements.
It’s true that the IIT Indore CSE department is improving every year and the credit goes to the hardworking students of the department.
Both ECE at IIT Guwahati and CSE at IIT Bhubaneswar are great options for you. However, the choice majorly depends on your personal choice and your career perspectives. I don’t have much idea about IIT Guwahati but I can guide you about CSE in IIT Bhubaneswar.
Irrespective of the IIT you choose, CS placements are excellent everywhere with very lucrative packages offered to its top rankers. A good student can pay a package as high as INR 30-40 LPA in CS whereas the same students will only end up with a package of INR 10–15 LPA.
While many may comment that placements should not be the only determining factor, I am here to contradict that opinion. CS is a branch that is dynamic and any engineering aspirants will be attracted to it naturally while other branches are a bit rigid and require specific attention.
As far as CSE at IIT BHU is concerned, it’s at par with most older IITs. The majority of the batch is pre-placed or placed on the first day itself. A few top recruiters include Goldman Sachs, Oracle, Microsoft, etc.
Without any second thoughts, RVCE is a better option than IIIT Bhubaneswar for CSE. Here are some strong points in favor of this claim
Overall, choosing RVCE over IIIT Bhubaneswar will offer more opportunities and therefore should be given more preference.
If you're considering pursuing a degree in Computer Science Engineering or Information Technology, you might be wondering which university to choose. Here are some things to keep in mind when comparing Chitkara University with CGC Landran and Chandigarh University:
Overall, if you're looking for high-quality education and excellent career opportunities in the field of CSE/IT, Chitkara University is a strong contender worth considering. Its practical approach to education, strong industry connections, and commitment to student success set it apart from other universities in the region.

NIT Warangal is way better than NIT Manipur in all aspects. The institute provides 90% placements every year for all branches. The faculties are very supportive and always motivates their students for success. Thus the students pursuing metallurgical and materials engineering from NIT Warangal have a good scope in the future.
Due to the increased demand for specialization, many students can be found transferring their branches to Artificial Intelligence departments since those provide better placement opportunities and high salary packages.
There is no specific CGPA requirement needed for a branch change. However, in accordance with the branch change policy, no department can take more than 10 % of its current number of students through the provision of Branch Change. So a branch that has 50 students can only admit 5 top students from other branches.
Hence it can be concluded that there is no specific CGPA required for branch change. It all depends on the competition between the students. However, based on one of my friends' experiences, the approximate CGPA required for branch change to AI or CS is around 9.6-9.8 in the first semester. Please note that this is just an approximate figure as there are no fixed criteria.
