Thapar University offers a good MCA program. The institute has a brilliant MCA faculty base. It offers good learning resources, and laboratory facilities to meet the requirement of students. 

Thapar University placement highlights show the average CTC offered to MCA students is around INR 7 LPA. While the highest CTC offered is around INR 8 LPA. TCS, Infosys, and Fidelity are among the major recruiters in the placement drive. 

One of my cousins completed an MCA from IGNOU while doing a job. She shared her experience with me. I have summarised it in points for better understanding:

• The Degree Certificate of IGNOU MCA will enable you to appear for an interview 

• There are regular classes on weekends. But these classes are only on paper so you can skip them.

• Students will have to approach self-study only

• Projects are only formalities and have no real value

• Institutes that run the MCA IGNOU program offer no help when it comes to getting a job.

• There is no value of IGNOU MCA in Infosys, TCS, Wipro, etc

Apart from this various advertisements in newspapers specifically mention that IGNOU candidates will not be able to apply. So I will not recommend that you complete an MCA from IGNOU.

The MCA course in general is a very demanding subject in the IT industry. You need to keep yourself updated with the latest trends in the industry to match proper excellence.

• In Sanskriti University reputed companies like Infosys, TCS, HCL, Deloitte, etc. frequently visit the campus during placements. 
• They usually offer students with an average salary package of 4.5-5 LPA. 
• This also increases to 8-10 LPA depending on the student’s overall academic performance.
• They have a specific cell for training and placement which helps students to gain proper knowledge for the interview, group discussion, communication and analytical skills, etc. 
• Students mastering these skills have a better chance to secure a job offer. 
• Sanskrit University has a 95% placement every year. 
• Their faculty is highly experienced and will give you the required guidance for doing your best in the field.
• It is very beneficial to pursue an MCA from Sanskriti University because the MCA students have a huge demand in the IT industry. 
• They produce industry-ready professionals every year. 

Some of the top IT companies visit the campus include Oracle, TCS, Genpact, IBM, Byju's, Infosys, Wipro, and many others. Therefore it is totally worth it to pursue an MCA degree from Sanskriti University.

Doing an MCA from Bangalore University is certainly worth the time and money invested. It offers decent academics. Third semester onwards, the course work includes two mini projects per semester. This gives a lot of hands-on learning experience. These projects will also help you enrich your resume.

The placement will depend on how you utilize your skills and knowledge. The average CTC for MCA offered during the recent Bangalore University placements was INR 6 LPA.
