Will I be able to make it to NALSAR with decent mock scores between 110-120 (123 being highest) with domicile reservation?
Since we are discussing NALSAR University of Law, which is one of the top institutes, it can’t be said with certainty that you will get in with a score of 110-120.
According to the public record, the number of domestic seats is around 22. So, you can have a chance to get admission, if students who score above you are from the non-domicile category.
You can definitely secure a seat, provided your score and category. But because the competition is somewhat the same for everyone, you can’t be certain about getting admission. If your score is near the highest, you can be hopeful.
Which is a better place to study, IIT Delhi or IIT Bombay?
Without any second thoughts, I consider IIT Bombay a much better option than IIT Delhi. Some reasons that speak in favor of my opinion are
- IIT Bombay enjoys a higher locational advantage as well as a better-equipped campus.
- While both IITs have a decent Research culture, IIT Bombay is at a level higher than IIT Delhi in this aspect. It has a larger number of Papers and Patents to its credit.
- The ambiance at IIT Bombay is rather chill with no strict rules and regulations. You are free to do anything and no restrictions are imposed on dress code or LAN.
- IIT Bombay has a better climate than IIT Delhi.
- IIT Bombay enjoys the advantages of being a Financial capital with additional opportunities for the non-core sector.
- IIT Bombay has a few BS programs like BS Economics, Mathematics, and Chemistry which are not present in IIT Delhi. These programs are a bridge between engineering and applied science and render a wide scope of research and at the same time, applied fields.
- IIT Delhi has extra BTech programs like BTech Textile, BTech, and BioTech. The students of these programs usually go for non-core jobs and corporate life.
- IIT Bombay welcomes a number of eminent personalities. Some recently invited personalities include PM Narendra Modi, Brett Lee, Sadhguru, Yami Gautam.
- IIT Bombay has amazing hostels for freshers.
So both the institutes are elite in their own essence but nowadays IIT Bombay is a clear winner between the two.

What is the reality behind the 1.5 crore package grabbed by IIT Roorkee student?
I am the right person to answer this question as my sister was a batchmate of the student who grabbed a 1.5 crore package offered by Microsoft Redmond. This package was offered to CSE and ECE students.
Microsoft was recruiting based on 2 profiles: Microsoft (Software) India and Microsoft Redmond USA
For Microsoft India, CTC offered was 39 Lakhs and the in-hand salary was 1 lakh per month which is similar to other IT companies.
For Microsoft Redmond, the CTC was 1.5 crore while the in hand was around 45 Lakhs.
Keeping in mind the PPP of USA vs India, the approximate value is 15 LPA. Do you think this is an extraordinary package, considering all the factors I have mentioned? Many companies visiting the campus even offer packages ranging between 20-25 LPA. In fact, an Indian company AppDynamics had offered a package of Rs.45 lakhs with 30 lakhs in hand. Many such offers by Indian companies are better than US companies. It’s just that the international offers are extremely hyped and not many go into details of the monetary value.
