Hello Sahil Prajapati,



well!! Thanks for asking me. I try to give ans As far as I've known.



This year the highest placement was $1,30000 for a student of my Branch. Actually I was not here But my brother told me via voice call when i was a student at resonance kota. and 120students at IIT Guwahati got placed on a single day it was the record among all 24IITs in term of no of placement offers for this year.



My brother was an aeronautical engineering student here at IIT guwahati Batch 201317. He had been offered from two different companies But he was not interested in doing job,and now he's going to pursue his M.Tech with IIT.



He had told me all the students at IIT guwahati had well opportunities this year.manies of them were getting two/three offers from various companies over world.



Hence I can say IIT guwahati is one of the top most IITs in term of placement records. Last year[2016] its had highest package of 93,00,000 Indian rupee.2017 $1,30000 means [97,00,000 Indian rupee]every year the package at IIT guwahati is increasing.

.

Average salary of an IIT Guwahati students is 13 LPA. But you should understand that average salaries should not be taken seriously. They are for name sake.It is not good to completely rely on them!

When I was in my first year, I used to wonder how much I would make. But now I am placed in a company which gives me less than the average stated above. Not only me, a lot of students are placed with less packages. The lowest is below 5 LPA.

If you ask me the reason for this, I would say that some people bag excellent packages near to crores. Those few people are clearly those who get foreign jobs.



Averages will be only useful when you also consider the job posting location. Students with foreign placement will definitely earn more than half crore. While indian jobs will hardly cross one fifth of a crore (Very few exceptions do exist).



Now reading all the above, you might get perplexed on how to compare the IITs (on the basis of placement). Though we cannot solve this problem ourselves. IITs themselves can do good to all by providing average excluding foreign jobs. This will definitely show clearer picture of IIT's placement.



Assuming that you have asked the question to compare IITs' placement, I would suggest you to go through the list of companies that are recruiting from past years. You can also measure the performance using no.of students registered vs placed...

.

My brother got an offer of 28 lpa from Google, and it is a mediocre package considering my average academics performance. I have heard people getting an annual package of crores and even as low as 34 lakhs. Since you are asking this question im assuming that you are looking at IIT as a medium to get yourself a healthy salary package, hope the word crore would have thrilled you and will appease you to work hard for Jee Mains and hopefully advanced to enjoy the four years of stardom amongst your non-IITian friends.

Hello aspirant,

Congratulations for the results. Hope you are doing well. IITs are the most prestigious institution in India for technical education. Every student wants to go there but only few could make it to. Now coming to IIT Mandi and IIT Guwahati, IIT Mandi is a newr IIT as compared to Guwahati but if you are getting data science in IIT Mandi then you should go for it as data science is a new branch and in future it will be in demand as there would be few graduates with this branch also every thing is becoming digitalised so data science would be having great scope as compared to civil engineering in which there are already lots of graduate present. Also placement depends on you how you study and work to achieve your goal. Every College is good and offers opportunities for placement so you  should surely go for data science in IIT Mandi.

Hope this helps.

If any queries feel free to ask.

All the best

Regards.

Dear data science is not the branch it is one of the parts of computer science stream you have to opt computer science branch if you want to opt data science in future. Both colleges are good you can differentiate about which college have better CSE branch and check your rank you get it that college as per your rank or not.

All the best
