MNNIT’s placement evidence can be read most responsibly by cohort and programme duration. In the institute’s data submitted for NIRF 2026, the latest reported year is 2024–25: 966 of 1,032 graduates from four-year undergraduate programmes who completed in the minimum stipulated time were recorded as placed, with a median salary of ₹12.6 lakh. That is a calculated 93.6% of that graduating group, not a placement rate among all students or all students seeking work. The same report gives separate figures for two- and three-year postgraduate programme groups. It does not provide branch-level outcomes in the figures summarized here.
Four-year undergraduate outcomes
The NIRF data-capture report lists 905 four-year undergraduate students graduating in minimum stipulated time in 2022–23; 803 were placed, the median salary of placed graduates was ₹17 lakh, and four were reported as pursuing higher studies. In 2023–24, the corresponding figures were 1,050 graduates, 968 placed, a ₹12 lakh median salary and 36 pursuing higher studies. For 2024–25, it records 1,032 graduates, 966 placed, a ₹12.6 lakh median and 32 pursuing higher studies.
Dividing placed students by graduates in minimum stipulated time gives approximate ratios of 88.7%, 92.2% and 93.6%, respectively. These calculations use the denominator shown in the NIRF table. They are not the share of registered or eligible students who received an offer: the published denominator does not answer how many students opted into placements, were eligible, or were still seeking work. A median is the middle reported salary among placed graduates, not an average, a starting salary guaranteed to each student, or a highest package.
The three-year sequence also shows why one headline figure can mislead. The reported median was higher in 2022–23 than in the next two years, while the placed count changed with the cohort size. This does not establish a general salary trend for a particular branch or explain why a value moved. Programme mix, participating students and reporting conventions matter; the report does not make those figures interchangeable with a branch-specific placement report.
Postgraduate groups are separate
For two-year postgraduate programmes, the NIRF submission reports 466 graduates and 228 placed in 2022–23, with a ₹9.5 lakh median salary. In 2023–24 it lists 401 graduates, 324 placed and an ₹8.39 lakh median; for 2024–25, 352 graduates, 238 placed and an ₹8.8 lakh median. The three-year postgraduate group is distinct: it reports 105 graduates and 89 placed at a ₹12 lakh median in 2022–23; 112 and 105 at ₹11.01 lakh in 2023–24; and 114 and 92 at ₹9 lakh in 2024–25.
These are duration-based NIRF programme groups. The submitted table does not identify each degree in the figures summarized here, so do not assign them to MBA, M.Tech, MCA or a named department. Nor should a reader compare one group’s median directly with the four-year undergraduate median as if the candidates, disciplines and labour-market paths were identical. Ask the department or Training and Placement Office for a programme-specific report when choosing between a particular course and career path.
How campus recruitment works
MNNIT’s published Training and Placement Office policy is explicitly for the 2024–25 placement session and 2025–26 internship session. It says final-year students interested in campus placements register through the Students Placement Portal, while pre-final-year students use the Student Internship Portal. The policy describes profile verification and company registration through those portals. Its general selection sequence may include a pre-placement talk, resume shortlisting, an online test, group discussion and interview, but companies can omit or subdivide stages. Treat this as the published policy for those named sessions, not a promise that every step or rule applies unchanged to a future batch.
The policy also makes participation consequential: candidates are expected to follow company instructions and attend the rounds after registering. Read the current TPO policy and notices for your own session before opting in. The figures in the NIRF report measure historical cohort outcomes; the policy explains a recruitment process. Neither predicts an individual offer or replaces current company and institute instructions.
Questions to ask before deciding
Use these figures as institute-level context, then seek the evidence that matches your intended degree. Ask for the latest branch or programme report, the graduating batch and session covered, the number of students eligible and registered, how “placed” is counted, and whether the salary measure is median CTC or another compensation basis. Confirm whether figures include higher studies, internships or pre-placement offers, and whether unplaced students who pursued further study remain in the denominator. Do not use the NIRF subgroup ratio as a personal probability of employment.
The official report reviewed here is an institute-submitted data-capture document for NIRF 2026, not a final NIRF rank or an audited promise of future performance. Its placement figures run through academic year 2024–25. For current rules, use the TPO’s live notices and portal; for outcomes, compare cohorts and programmes on the same basis. This keeps a useful historical signal separate from the decisions and results that remain specific to your course and graduating year. Keep the cohort, denominator and salary basis beside every figure when comparing institutions or departments. A reported outcome also cannot show how many students declined offers, accepted jobs outside campus recruitment, or changed plans after graduation.
