I believe IIT Bombay has a better campus life than IIT Delhi. Here are a few points to prove the same

  • Events: Asia's largest technical event Techfest and cultural event Mood Indigo are organized by IIT Bombay. These are much superior and better than IIT Delhi’s 'Tryst' and 'Rendezvous' in terms of planning, entertainment, and scale.
  • Transport: IIT Bombay has its own elaborate bus service inside the campus that runs 24/7 on CNG. IIT Delhi on the other hand just has 3-4 buses that run not more than 4-5 times during morning and evening. Hardly all the students are able to avail of this service because the buses are always fully occupied.
  • Exotic Powai Lake: The hostels of IIT Bombay especially H12 and H13 offer a picturesque view from the balcony or rooftop and give a calming effect to the students conducive to learning. IIT Delhi on the other hand is located in the most polluted city and the hostels offer a similar unhygienic view.
  • Restrictions: IIT Bombay has no rules regarding girls' and boys' hostels and students are free to visit opposite-gender hostels. IIT Delhi gives no such relaxation and gender mix is possible only during House Day, which is held once a year.
  • Food and refreshments: IIT Bombay has an abundance of food and refreshments offered through kiosks, food stalls, and ice cream parlors. Although IIT Delhi too provides snacks, its food is not comparable to IIT Bombay.
  • Mess food: IIT Bombay serves both non-vegetarian and vegetarian in their real sense whereas IIT Delhi caters to North Indians' taste buds mainly and the quality of food is also lower than IIT Bombay.

Some might find the above differences too minor, for them, it’s better to choose the one that aligns with their own preferences like location, etc.
