The verdict
Worth considering
This is a budget-friendly, AICTE-approved B.Tech Mechanical program with solid legacy recruiters like Tata Motors and L&T. However, the 45% placement rate and modest average package of ₹3.8 LPA mean outcomes vary widely. Best suited if you prioritize low fees and core mechanical fundamentals over high campus placement certainty.
