What is the average package of production engineering at NIT Trichy?

One of my friends graduated from NIT Trichy. According to him, in this age of Information Technology and software boom, very few people are there who stick to their branches.

• Very few people remain in the core subject sector after graduating from a core department.
• Very few students sit for placements related to their branch.
• Most students tend to incline towards job opportunities in the corporate sector.
• The average salary in production engineering offered is around INR 7 to 8 LPA. 
• The median salary offered is around INR 9 LPA.
• The top companies that recruited students from production engineering are Ashok Leyland, P&G, Godrej, MRF, CEAT, Coca Cola, and JK Tyres.
• Roles offered were industrial engineer, production manager, R&D engineer. Many students get an internship from the college.

If you go for jobs in coding and software as most of the students do then you can be offered higher salary packages. This might be the reason why most students opt for jobs in the corporate sector.
