Hi Aspirant!

The first basis to compare the college is on NIRF Ranking and on that basis NIT Durgapur is at 47 position while IIEST Shibpur is at 21 position.So on the basis of NIRF Ranking IIEST is better.

Now the second parameter is placement and on that basis NIT Durgapur has median package of 6 Lakhs while IIEST has 4.5 lakhs median package.Hence on that basis NIT Durgapur is better.

But here is one thing to note that IIEST Shibpur will provide you more opportunity that NIT Durgapur because it is good in every aspect as it has better NIRF ranking.And if a student will get good opportunity then they will automatically bring good placement.

Hence you should choose IIEST Shibpur, but the end decision is yours.

I hope it helps.
