Editorial review

By

National Institute of Technology, Durgapur's 2025 placement cycle: NIT Durgapur reported over 710 students placed in the 2024-25 season, an 82% overall placement rate, across more than 210 companies, with a highest package of Rs 80 lakh; median CTC printed at ₹12.15 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 headline figures are published directly on NIT Durgapur's official Training and Placement Cell website as "710+ Students Placed," "82% Overall Placement Rate," "210+ Companies Visited," and "Rs 80 LPA Highest Package" for the 2024-25 season (the year used for its NIRF 2025 ranking cycle).

The "+" suffixes on the official site indicate these are at-least figures rather than exact counts. The Training and Placement Cell's batch-wise statistics page for the 2025 batch lists an average package of 12.61 LPA and 589 total offers, and the placement brochure 2025-26 gives the same headline set (590+ jobs offered, 82% overall placement, 80 LPA highest, 12.6 LPA average). The offers count (589) is lower than the 710+ students placed shown on the homepage; both are published by the cell and are reproduced as stated rather than reconciled.

The median of Rs 12.15 lakh is not from the placement cell: it is the median salary for the 4-year B.Tech cohort graduating in minimum stipulated time in 2024-25 (595 placed of 813 graduating) from NIT Durgapur's own NIRF 2026 engineering data submission, so it covers B.Tech only while the other headline figures cover all programmes.

The recruiter list is the "Major Recruiters" page of the official placement brochure 2025-26 (company logos, not ranked and not tied to an offer count). NIT Durgapur does not publish a sector or industry split of offers; only branch-wise placement percentages and a CTC-band distribution are shown, so no sector chart is included.

Key takeaways

  1. 210 recruiters, led by Samsung

    210 firms participated for 589 offers, about 2.8 offers per recruiter on average. Samsung topped the named list, followed by Microsoft, Apple, and Texas Instruments. Offer concentration among a few brand-name firms is common at top campuses; check whether your target employers actually appear in this list rather than assuming brand gravity alone.
