Will the New IIIT Pune be safe to join?

Indian Institute of Information Technology, Pune is still new to other IIITs and is less reputed than them. 

The institute has just witnessed placement for its 1st batch of ECE and CSE. The following table shows the placement stats for the institute:

You can ask IIIT Pune students about their experience and then can decide whether it would be a good choice for you or not. However, it is advisable to choose other reputable colleges that have strong alumni and good placement records. It has an ‘INI’ tag and after a few years maybe it comes to one of the top Engineering colleges. 

Therefore, if you have not scored well in JEE then you can opt for IIIT Pune. As Pune is an IT hub, you can expect job opportunities thereafter completing your studies.
