NIRF top-50 status, an 80% placement rate, average packages around ₹12L, and a total fee of just ₹4.5L gives this an insane ROI. You get research, teaching exposure, and heavy clinical hours — perfect if you're eyeing academic surgery, government service, or tier-1 private practice. Heads up: surgery residency is brutal everywhere, Ludhiana isn't a metro, and our data confidence is moderate (40%).
