Missing AICTE Approval
This program is UGC-recognized but not AICTE-approved. If you’re eyeing certain PSUs, government roles, or employers with strict AICTE filters, verify eligibility before you commit.
The verdict
Worth considering
The A++ tag and NIRF top-40 status at this fee point are genuinely rare, but the missing AICTE stamp and modest average package mean it’s a ‘verify-before-you-vibe’ situation. Great if you want a low-debt Kerala route into IT services; less ideal if you’re chasing premium product roles or PSUs.
