The complete B.Tech programme fee is INR 14.03 Lakhs. Students pay INR 3.72 Lakhs in the first year and INR 3.43 to 3.46 Lakhs in each of years 2 to 4. These annual charges cover tuition, development fees, and other institute charges.

Hostel accommodation costs INR 1.09 Lakhs per year for a 4-person room and INR 1.26 Lakhs per year for a double-sharing room. Eligible M.Tech students with a valid GATE score generally receive an AICTE stipend of INR 12,400 per month, which can cover most of the programme cost.

The B.Tech choices combine established technology subjects with newer interdisciplinary areas. HCI focuses on human-centred technology, while ECE-IoT covers connected systems. These two options are not commonly offered by other IIITs.

IIIT Nagpur Admission Process

B.Tech admission is based entirely on JEE Main rank and centralised JoSAA counselling under the Ministry of Education. IIIT Nagpur neither holds a separate B.Tech entrance examination nor offers direct admission.

B.Tech Admission

Applicants must study Physics, Chemistry, and Mathematics in Class 12 and obtain a valid JEE Main score. The minimum Class 12 aggregate is 75%, or the student must be within the top 20 percentile of the relevant state board. The requirement for SC and ST applicants is 65%.

• Take the January or April JEE Main session, or appear in both sessions.
• Create an account on the JoSAA portal and complete counselling registration.
• Add IIIT Nagpur and the preferred branches under the IIIT category, then lock the choices.
• Wait for allocation based on JEE Main rank, category, and selected branch preferences.
• After receiving a seat, report at the IIIT Nagpur campus with the original documents, Class 10 and Class 12 mark sheets, JEE Main admit card, and proof of institute fee payment.

M.Tech Admission

Admission to the M.Tech in ICT is handled through CCMT, the Centralized Counselling for M.Tech, M.Arch, M.Plan, and M.Des. Applicants need a valid GATE score and a B.Tech in CSE, ECE, IT, or another related discipline.

Ph.D. Admission

The institute admits Ph.D. scholars twice each year through July and January intakes. Students may apply with an M.Tech or with a B.Tech supported by a valid GATE, UGC-NET, or CSIR-NET qualification. Selection also includes an institute-level written test, an interview, or both.

IIIT Nagpur Cutoffs

JoSAA Round 5 closing ranks for 2026 placed General-category CSE and AI-ML admissions in the 27,000 to 29,000 CRL range. ECE-IoT and HCI generally closed at larger rank numbers. The category figures below also include prior-year trends, and actual closing ranks can change with the applicant pool.

IIIT Nagpur Placements

The 2025 graduating class achieved the institute's highest recorded placement rate at 97.1%. The season drew 214 companies from IT services, technology product businesses, and core technology fields.

Recruiters seen across recent placement seasons include Microsoft, Amazon, Google, Qualcomm, Oracle, Cisco, Infosys, TCS, and several mid-market product companies. TCS, which is also the institute's industry partner, recruits regularly from IIIT Nagpur. Placement results have improved as the first graduating groups have developed a stronger alumni presence in the technology industry. The INR 14.96 LPA average for 2025 is among the highest reported by a PPP IIIT in India.

IIIT Nagpur Scholarships

As students of an Institute of National Importance, eligible learners at IIIT Nagpur can apply for central government financial support. The main schemes and their conditions are listed below.

GATE-qualified M.Tech scholars automatically receive an AICTE stipend of INR 12,400 per month. This support can make the programme self-financing for most enrolled students. Ph.D. scholars holding UGC-NET, CSIR-NET, or institute-funded fellowships receive INR 31,000 to 37,000 per month under MHRD norms.

IIIT Nagpur Campus and Infrastructure

IIIT Nagpur's permanent campus covers 100 acres at Waranga in Nagpur, Maharashtra, and has been in use since April 2021. Academic facilities include equipped laboratories for CSE, ECE, and interdisciplinary subjects, along with a computer centre, digitally accessible central library, seminar rooms, conference halls, and residential quarters for faculty members.

Boys and girls live in separate hostel blocks. Double-sharing rooms cost INR 1.26 Lakhs per year, while rooms shared by 4 students cost INR 1.09 Lakhs per year. Every hostel floor has a shared room with indoor recreation facilities. Students can use the canteen in the academic block for Indian food, and more food stalls operate outside the campus gates. Outdoor sports are supported by grounds within the campus.

The mentoring relationship with VNIT Nagpur supports research infrastructure collaboration and faculty development. Nagpur Railway Station and Dr. Babasaheb Ambedkar International Airport are located within 15 to 25 km of the institute.

IIIT Nagpur vs IIIT Pune vs IIIT Dharwad

Students with JEE Main ranks between 25,000 and 40,000 often consider these three newer PPP IIITs together. Their funding comes from the Ministry of Education, the relevant state government, and an industry partner. The institutes differ in campus location, mentoring arrangements, industry partnerships, fees, and placement results.

Among the three, IIIT Nagpur reported a 97.1% placement rate and an average CTC of INR 14.96 LPA for 2025. Its B.Tech list also includes HCI and ECE-IoT, which are less common among peer IIITs. IIIT Pune's location in a major technology centre can support internships and professional networking, while IIIT Dharwad has Infosys as its industry partner. Students should compare the latest JoSAA closing ranks, preferred branches, location, and placement figures before deciding.
