Both IIT Delhi and IIIT Bangalore are highly renowned engineering institutions in India. Each of them has its own strengths and weaknesses. Here’s a comparison between both of them:

Parameters	IIT Delhi	IIIT Bangalore
Year of Establishment	1961	1998
NIRF Ranking	2	74
B.Tech programmes offered	Engineering and Computational Mechanics Biochemical Engineering and Biotechnology Chemical Engineering Computer Science and Engineering Civil Engineering Electrical Engineering Electrical Engineering (Power and Automation) Energy Engineering Materials Engineering Mathematics & Computing Mechanical Engineering Production and Industrial Engineering Engineering Physics Textile Engineering	B.Tech. (CSE) B.Tech. (ECE) B.Tech. (DSAI) Integrated M.Tech. (CSE) Integrated M.Tech. (ECE)

List of Recruiters	Microsoft, CISCO, Accenture, Brain & Company, Jaguar Land Rover India Limited	Adobe, AMDA, HP, Oracle, Qualcomm, IBM, Mercedes-Benz, Microsoft

IIT Delhi is a part of the prestigious IITs. This is not just a national, but a global brand name. IIIT Bangalore focuses on IT and related fields. It has strong ties with the IT industry, especially in Bangalore's tech hub.

If you're primarily interested in IT and computer science, IIIT Bangalore is a great option. But for streams outside IT, IIT Delhi is better. Moreover, IIT Delhi has an edge in terms of prestige and recognition.

While IIIT Bangalore is a top institution for Computer Science and IT, IIT Delhi has an unparalleled reputation in more than one specialisation of engineering. I would

IMTech from International Institute of Information Technology Bangalore (2020)

IIIT Bangalore is not even close to IIT Delhi in terms of legacy and brand name.

IIT Delhi has the best cultural and tech fests that provide tremendous opportunities to explore your area of interest whereas at IIIT Bangalore there is little emphasis on extracurricular activities.
The alumni base of IIT Delhi is much more elaborate and strong than IIIT Bangalore.
IIT Delhi in itself is a brand nationally and globally and attracts the best talents of the country giving you a diverse peer group.
The average packages of IIIT Bangalore are made up of placements of only 2 branches CSE and ECE which already are highly paid branches. Its average package is misleading. IIT Delhi, on the other hand, has a wide variety of branches so its average package might seem less but in reality, its CS packages are higher than IIIT Bangalore.

There is only one scenario under which I will recommend you not to go for IIT Delhi when you are interested in CS but could get only Textile. In this case, you can always go for an old IIT.

I don’t mean to undermine IIIT Bangalore but it should be your last option.
