Until today, the average package is Rs 19.9 lakh per annum in the academic year 2022-23. The authorities hope that the highest pay package would touch Rs 1 crore per annum in this academic year.

“During the Covid-19 pandemic, we have generously sanctioned teaching aids such as writing pads, laptops, streaming software and more to ensure that the students don’t face difficulty during online classes and lectures. With the help of tools like Moodle LMS, the university ensured that students experience the same level of interactions as they would physically. The ongoing efforts by the institution and departments have made sure that students receive the same level of exposure to skill building which has shown by the striking result of 1000 placements within the first part of academic year,” NIT Director Prof NV Ramana Rao told ‘Telangana Today’.
