IIT Madras is better. In terms of academics, IIT Delhi and IIT Madras are on a similar level. But IIT Madras placements are comparably better. According to 2022 placement highlights, the average CTC for the institute was INR 22 LPA. IIT Madras has a better startup culture as well. If you want to have your own start-up in the future, it is the right place.
Both IIT Delhi and IIT Madras are among the top engineering colleges in India. But given a choice, you should choose the latter.

My sister was a former student of IITM; thereby, she has limited knowledge of IITD. She often tells me that the choice completely depends on the students' aspects, i.e. how you want to compare these two institutes. It can be mentioned that each of these institutes has its own merits. In the following, some aspects are listed.
- If the student considers the placement statistics, then IITD is far better. Although IITM is not so far behind.
- Each and every IIT has its own specificity. My sister always tells me that studying in IITM will lead the student towards its personal development along with skills.
- There are a lot of entrepreneurship opportunities that thrive inside the campus of IITM; thus, it represents an extraordinary start-up culture. So, if the student has strong interpersonal skills or wants to start their own business, this institute is the right place to start their career.
- Another important thing is that IITM is situated in the centre of the city, but the student can’t go out as the temperature here is very hot as well as humid. The temperature inside the campus is hardly 1-2 degrees Celsius lower than the surrounding as it is basically part of a reserve forest.
Thus, if the student is interested in taking admission here, they must go through several posts about this institute that denotes the academic culture or the reputed institute's cultural life. The scenario beauty of this institute is awesome.
My sister also told me that if the students love natural beauty, they can take admission to IITM. But if they prefer girls, then they can select IITD or IITB.
