If you have not so many ideas about the stream and do not aware of the institutional tag; then it is better to choose E&TC in DAVV. Besides, if you are considering these two institutes, then both are quite similar in terms of academics. However, E&TC also has many other fields in the future, so that the job opportunity might be expanded. Hence, it will be best to go for E&TC over EI.
First of all, forget about SGSITS Indore as it stands nowhere in front of IIIT and MANIT. If you are looking for good placement and salary then forget MANIT Civil too. The only options you are now left with are - IIIT Allahabad dual and IIIT Amethi IT. Clearing things about IIIT Amethi, it has been closed and have been moved to IIIT Allahabad.

There is no point in spending extra two years pursuing M.Tech at IIIT Allahabad because if you are interested in a PG Degree then you can prepare for GATE during UG. Doing so will get you admission at any IITs which would be better for your career.
It is better to go for IIIT Allahabad and if you feel to go for PG then prepare, get a good score and go for IITs. Otherwise, you can always go for placements and will probably land up a very good job.
Yes, it is possible to get into any of these colleges with this rank, be it SGSITS or IET DAVV. But you wouldn't get into the branch according to your choice. It only depends on the number of seats available for each branch and the number of students applying for a particular branch.

But don't just take admission in any branch of a college just because of its name and popularity. Always choose that branch in which you are really interested. That would be the best decision and will be very helpful for your career.
Both the colleges are similar to each other for the IT branch and provide equal facilities to their students, but IET DAVV is a little better than SGSITS.
As both these colleges are similar to each other in every other aspect except a few, so you can choose anyone according to your preferences.
It would be a bit difficult to get listed in both the colleges, but in college-level counseling, there is still a 50% chance. A friend of mine got admission to the EI branch at IET DAVV with a rank of AIR 1,60,000 (general category) through CLC.
You might get branches like EI, Biomedical, etc. You can get these branches in college-level counseling or even in the second round. But it’s risky. If you fail to get in, you may have to drop a year. My friend got lucky with the seat. I will only recommend going for it, if you are willing to drop a year or have other alternatives.
If you just want to have fun, enjoy your college life and get a degree by the side, then IET is a good choice. Both IET DAVV and SGSITS are reputed in Indore and Central India.
Choose the right institute based on your expectation of the degree.
Are you more inclined towards IT or CSE? Having a clear view on what’s your page of interest definitely makes the process easier. However, there are some key points you might need to consider before making any choice:
Hope this short comparison of major factors has helped you get a gist of what to expect once you get there. If you think you can succeed on the basis of your skills and hard work, you can go thrive anywhere. However, if facilities and comfort matter a lot for you then blindly go for SGSITS.
I have a few friends at both SGSITS and IET-DAVV. Based on what I heard about the institutes through them, I will say there is no comparison between IP at SGSITS and IET-DAVV. EI is superior as a branch. It has better placements, scopes, and curriculum.
EI stands for Electronics and Instrumentation. It is similar to Electronics and Telecommunication (ETC) and also has a similar syllabus with 4-5 different subjects. While IP, i.e. Industrial Production is a sub-branch of Mechanical Engineering.
According to the recent placement highlights the average CTC offered at SGSITS and IET DAVV are 5.2 LPA and 6 LPA.
If you don’t have any particular interest in a branch, then choosing EI will be better. EI offers better future prospects.
I have friends from both IIIT Vadodara and SGSITS Indore, and here is what they have to say about their CSE courses.
Here are some recent statistics about the two institutes.
Institute |
IIIT Vadodara |
SGSITS |
Average CTC |
13 LPA |
3.8 LPA |
Highest CTC |
43 LPA |
10 LPA |
Major recruiters |
Amazon, ICICI Bank, Mathworks |
Infosys, Wipro, Cognizant Technology Solutions. |
Thus to say, IIIT Vadodara can be a better option to choose if compared with SGSITS or any other state-level college.
The electronics branch in engineering is not doing that well in our country. If you are not from a well-established and old IIT, there aren’t that many placement options anymore.
As far as IET DAVV is concerned, you will probably get an average placement at Wipro for INR 3 lakhs per annum after doing so much hard work for four years. My advice to you would be to choose SGSITS for electrical engineering. You can expect placements in many core companies with great campus life and a healthy competitive environment.
In the future, if you are planning to appear for competitive exams like GATE, CAT, UPSC, etc. GSITS performs very well just like its placements.
