are Indian Institute of information technology ' s good colleges compared to nits ?

Hello there aspirant,

See , it is to be evident to you that the NITs and IIITs are both setup by the MHRD , Govt.of India under an act of parliament. So all of them are somewhat equally Institutes of national importance.

Now, there are many NITs which are better than the IIITs and also there are some IIITs which are better than NITs. Like for example IIIT Gwalior is ranked better than NIT BHOPAL or NIT Patna.

The Placements of some NITs like TRICHY, Suratkhal,Rourkela are by far better than those of the best IIITs. But these IIITs have better placements compared to NITs in N-E or Hamirpur etc.

So it all depends upon the colleges you are willing to compare

The all of 31 NITs are fully run and funded by the MHRD.

However, the IIITs there are some exceptions.

• 5 IIITs are fully funded by the MHRD
• 17 IIITs are setup by the PPP model in which 60% is by MHRD, 30% By state govt. And 10% by private individuals

Hi Aspirant,

It depends on which IIITs and NITs you are comparing. A lot of IIITs are better than some of the NITs, and a lot of NITs are ranked better than some of the IIITs.

The IIITs are of two types:

1. Setup, Funded, and Managed by Ministry of Human Resource Development or Ministry of Education.
2. Setup on Public-Private Partnership (PPP), funded by Central Government, State Governments, and Industry Partners in the ratio 50:35:15.

IIITs under category (1) are considered better than many NITs, but category (2) doesn't have good IIITs.

Hope this information is sufficient for your query.
