The answer depends on you entirely. You can give Nirma University a slip if you are getting offers from NLUs. But if you are not getting the top NLUs, Nirma University is one of the best private universities out there.
Nirma University promises to give the students better placements than some of the lower-tier NLUs. Nirma University is high on discipline and most of its students dislike this about the university.
What you should remember is that there is not much difference between how much you will pay if you end up studying in an NLU, and how much you will pay if you study at Nirma University in five years.
Nirma University is not as popular in the area of law as the top-tier NLUs even though it is pretty popular if we consider private institutes. If you have the skills and knowledge appropriate for placement, you will be placed at Nirma University. But getting good placements depends a lot on how much effort you put in.
If you work hard, 12 lakhs will definitely be worth it.
Nirma University is a good choice for pursuing an ECE program. I think I can give you some insight into the ECE department as I know a few people from the institute.

Electrical and Computer science is very different from each other and they have very few things similar to each other.

I have a friend studying at Nirma University and he gave some information about the hostel accommodation near the institute. If you are planning to be in a hostel there are a few near the university.
Hiramani hostel:
Nirma Hostel:
SGVP:
There are many other options too, like Sandipini, but my friend claims Hiramani is best.
Nirma University IT is a better option. The reasons are course curriculum, the teaching methodology used, and faculty. The seniors of the institute are also quite helpful.
Nirma University offers the best infrastructure among all other colleges in Gujarat. Some of the major recruiters for the branch are Cognizant, Motorola, Samsung, Wipro, etc. Students of Nirma usually get an average CTC of around INR 10 LPA.
The choice here ultimately comes down to your interest. First, decide whether you are interested in pursuing specialized MBA courses like MBA in finance or are you more inclined towards MBA general where you can opt for a specialization in your second year.
I have some friends at LBSIM Delhi. So, can give you some insight into the institute.

If you are in any of the clubs, you have to be constantly present in the activities. You must have a group of friends in the club and if you don't have any partner then it does not work.
You will witness club politics and it becomes a necessary factor to run the club. For social attention, you need to be a celeb in the club as it increases your contracts.
You must take your club as your priority and give time to everyone. It will affect your studies because of the great extent of involvement in the clubs. It will become difficult to balance it
Everyone has their own decisions about what they want to choose and the most basic principle is Survival of the fittest. But it's better to give time to your studies otherwise it will ruin your studies and doing it with engineering is a risk.
