The verdict

Good fit

This is a steal if you want a reputed, research-friendly PG degree without student debt. NIRF #15 + NAAC A++ credibility at ₹44K total is rare. Placements are decent (70% placed, avg ₹4 LPA) with a healthy mix of mass recruiters and a product company like Zoho. Only skip if you strictly need AICTE approval or are chasing ultra-premium salary packages right after PG.
