Indian Institute of Technology, Mandi: 2024 Placement Report
Numbers
Editorial review
Indian Institute of Technology, Mandi's 2024 placement cycle: 196 of 280 B.Tech students graduating in minimum stipulated time from IIT Mandi in 2023-24 were placed (70%), with a median salary of Rs 18.5 lakh, per the institute's own NIRF submission; Software and Data Science led sector share at 64.2%; median CTC printed at ₹18.50 LPA. The longer reading and numbered takeaways below unpack what that means for sector mix, recruiter depth, and how to read average versus median.
These figures come from IIT Mandi's own NIRF data submission (2025 ranking cycle), for the B.Tech cohort admitted in 2020-21 and graduating in minimum stipulated time in 2023-24. The placement percentage (70%) is computed here from the source's own stated counts of students placed and students graduating.
A further 73 students from this same cohort went on to higher studies rather than placement; placed (196) plus higher studies (73) accounts for 269 of the 280 graduates, leaving a residual 11 students (about 4% of the cohort) not captured under either category in the submission's own figures.
The same submission's prior-year row shows the 2022-23 graduating cohort (admitted 2019-20) at 207 of 232 placed (89.22%) with a higher median salary of Rs 22 lakh, indicating some year-on-year variation.
The sector split and the Rs 22.38 lakh average come from the Career and Placement Cell's own Placement and Internship Report (data to 29 July 2024), which gives the 2023-24 campus placements by sector as Software and Data Science 64.2%, Analytics 15%, Engineering 13% and Education 7.8% (percentages of placements, no offer counts published). Its table of B.Tech average and median CTC for the 2020-2024 batch gives an overall average of Rs 22.38 lakh and the same median of Rs 18.5 lakh used above. The Cell's report is archived because the original file is no longer served at its old address. IIT Mandi did not publish a highest CTC or a ranked recruiter list for 2023-24 in these documents; its Cell lists only cumulative past recruiters and the companies that made pre-placement offers.
Key takeaways
Software and Data Science led the batch at 64.2%
Software and Data Science accounted for 64.2% of offers, the largest sector share in this 2024 report. The next sector, Analytics, sat at 15%, so the gap between first and second is 49.2 percentage points. If your target function sits outside this lead sector, treat the headline placement rate as a campus-wide figure rather than a guarantee for your preferred cohort.
Top two sectors took 79% of offers
Software and Data Science and Analytics together made up 79.2% of offers, a concentrated recruiter mix. Engineering was a distant third at 13%. Concentration is not automatically good or bad, but it does mean batch-level averages can mask thinner opportunity in secondary functions.
70% of the eligible batch placed
196 of 280 eligible students accepted offers through the campus process (70%), with 84 opting out or taking paths outside the reported pool. High conversion is the headline; the more useful follow-up is whether your preferred sector and role type showed up in the sector split and recruiter list below.
Average sits above the median
Average CTC (₹22.38 LPA) sits about ₹3.9 LPA above the median (₹18.50 LPA). That gap usually means a smaller set of higher offers pulled the mean up, so the median is the safer read on a typical package for this 2024 batch.
