IIIT Kottayam is one of the finest engineering colleges in South India. You can compare the placement statistics of IIIT Kottayam with the new IIITs and see how it fares better than others. Even during its first placement drive in 2019, many big companies like NISSAN, L&T, and Reliance(JIO) recruited students.
The packages offered by companies like NISSAN were in the range of 6 Lakh-10 Lakh. These numbers portray how well the institute performed even during the first placement drive which the other new IIITs failed to do. Currently, the placement scenario at IIIT Kottayam is at par with most old NITs.
The institute has a great coding culture that is at par with old IIITs like IIIT Allahabad, Gwalior, and some NITs. You will be amazed to know that more than 70% of students cleared the initial round of CODE JAM conducted by Google. Another aspect that makes IIIT Kottayam stand out among other IIITs is its permanent campus which many new IIITs lack.
I feel you should join IIIT Kottayam without any hesitation!
I have friends in all the aforementioned colleges and thus am writing this answer based on collective experiences only. From the reviews of their respective colleges, I arrived at the conclusion that IIIT Sonepat is the best option among all these.
IIIT Sonepat fairs are better than the aforementioned institutes in terms of infrastructure, placement fees, etc. Here are a few strong reasons to choose IIIT Sonepat
Moreover, judging by my friends' experiences, the preference order I can up with is
IIIT Sonepat>>>>IIIT Surat >IIIT Vadodara>IIIT Kurnool
IIITDM Jabalpur is better than Kancheepuram. It is an older institute and has a beautiful campus. The facilities offered are state-of-the-art. The professors are well-experienced and cooperative. IIITDM Jabalpur placement 2022 had the highest CTC of INR 44 LPA. Linkedin, BrowserStack, and Oracle, were some of the major recruiters to take part in the placement drive.
As both of these are IIITs, they will never fail in delivering quality education to their students. However, there are some aspects due to which IIIT Sri City has an edge over IIITDM Kurnool. Here’s why:

However, it doesn’t mean that IIITDM Kurnool is not at all a good option. The thing is that it still needs at least the next 5-10 years to produce great records and become a premier institute like the other IIITs. But for now, IIIT Sri City is the best choice for you.
All three IIITs are established by MHRD and offer an excellent education to students.
Fee and Placement details of the institutes are as follows.
