I don't think many companies even consider CGPA as the criteria for evaluating your eligibility to get placed. CSE students especially have to work on their coding and problem-solving skills more than their CGPA. I am not saying CGPA does not matter at all, what I mean is it's not the main criteria. You still need a good CGPA to qualify for the cutoffs set by companies. Most companies are okay with a decent 7 while some even let you sit with a CGPA around 6. Only a few government companies like CDOT and DRDO, set high cutoffs. The number of companies expecting a high CGPA is usually very low.
One of my friends at NIT Rourkela stated that there is no direct connection between your CGPA and the package you receive, rather it all depends on individual skills. If you are a CS student, bear in mind that your interviewer will expect good coding skills in any of the high-level programming languages like C/C++/Java, etc., a strong grasp of data structures and algorithms, basics of operating systems, and some fundamental theoretical concepts of database and networking. Such skills will overcome even your low CGPA.
NIT Rourkela CSE average package 2023 stood at INR 21.87 LPA . So it can be said that as a NIT Rourkela student, if you have a CGPA of 7+ you will be eligible to sit for placements of most CS companies but your chances of selection depend on the skills you developed through the period of 4 years.
The placement scenario of NIT Warangal, Surathkal, and Trichy is somewhat the same with minor differences only. One of my friends studied at NIT Warangal and shed some light on the placement scenario there. Here is a branch-wise analysis
Overall, placements are similar in all the 3 NITs, NIT Warangal, Trichy, and Surathkal.
The placement scenario at NIT Rourkela is second only to the top NITs. In fact, it has high cutoffs too. Most students unable to make it to the top NITs consider NIT Rourkels as their first option. The reason is its improving placement statistics. Sparing a few core branches, the average packages are decent for most branches.
NIT Rourkela Placements 2023 rapped with a total of 1534 job offers. The highest package was recorded at INR 52.98 LPA whereas the average package stood at INR 12.95 LPA. 8 students received the highest package & 24 students received a package of around INR 50 LPA.
Branches like Electrical Engineering, Electronics & Instrumentation Engineering, and Ceramic Engineering branches recorded 100% placements. Here is the branch-wise average package offered during NIT Rourkela Placements 2023:

A total of 330 recruiters participated in the placement drive, the major ones being Apple, Google, VISA, etc.
Here are the placement details for the B.Tech 2023 batch at NIT Rourkela-
During the 2023 placement season, 787 job offers were received by the B.Tech students of NIT Rourkela. The highest CTC offered to the students was Rs. 83.60 LPA, the average CTC was Rs. 15.74 LPA, the median CTC was Rs. 12.59 LPA, and the lowest CTC was Rs. 3 LPA. The average CTC received by B.Tech CSE students was Rs. 21.87 LPA.
Companies like PwC, Deloitte and Shell were the top recruiters for the placement season.
The placement scenario of the Mechanical branch of NIT Rourkela is great. Many core companies like Tata Steel, Vedanta, Tata Motors, Maruti - Suzuki, Mahindra & Mahindra visit the campus to recruit talented students as Graduate engineer Trainees.
A few PSUs also visit NIT Rourkela to recruit students from one of the best NITs in the country. For instance, Indian Oil Corporation Ltd. (IOCL) visited the institute and recruited 4 Mechanical Engineering students. The core companies offer average packages of around INR 8 LPA.
Most students have to go for Analytics, Consultancy, and IT sectors due to limited opportunities in the Mechanical branch. Companies like TCS, Mu Sigma, Infosys, etc recruit such students.
Overall, the placement scenario of ME at NIT Rourkela might not be excellent but it is quite satisfactory.
The quality of roles and packages offer to MTech CSE students of NIT Rourkela depends on individual skills and expectations and therefore cannot be generalized.

Overall, the placement conditions are decent and not all students get placed. Most CS companies allow only BTech students to sit for placements and therefore Mech students end up in service-based companies like TCS, and IBM (GBS). This poor placement scenario stems from the outdated CSE curriculum at NIT Rourkela. The curriculum focuses on theoretical concepts only and students are not exposed to practical experiences.
So, I will suggest you go for CSE M.tech at NIT Rourkela only if you are unemployed after your BTech or you want to pursue your career academically. Joining this course on the pretext of getting better jobs will not be a wise decision.
The exact placement scenario of Industrial Design Engineering at NIT Rourkela depends on the individual's preference and strengths. Consider the following points
Those interested in neither of the above options can try their luck in entrepreneurship.

If the placement figures don't satisfy you, you can take advantage of the light curriculum and inculcate good coding skills instead. This will help you get placed in the IT or Software sector where the opportunities are in abundance.
Ceramic Engineering is one of the least preferred branches in NIT Rourkela because of its limited scope and job opportunities. Moreover, it lacks demand in the country as of now. However, the scenario is slowly improving. Quite a few core companies like Vedant, TRL, OCL, etc visit for placements. Additionally, students of this branch can sit for companies from the IT sector as well as analytics so the opportunities offered in non-core jobs are plentiful.
I asked a senior about the placement scenario and he told me that in his batch, 80% of the students got placed. The highest stipend offered was Rs. 35,000 per month, and the lowest stipend offered was Rs. 7,000 per month. A few major recruiters included Vedanta, Sera, Somani, Jindal Steel, etc. In 2020, the highest package offered was 42 LPA , while the average package offered was 8.75 LPA . These salary packages are improving every year due to increasing demand. Most of the students from core branches got placements, while the rest of the students opt for higher studies.
Overall, the placement of Ceramic engineering at NIT Rourkela is great.
NIT Rourkela's average package of Electrical Engineering 2023 was recorded at INR 14.55 LPA. Moreover, the quality and number of recruiters are also great given the fact that it's one of the top NITs. However, core jobs are only a handful and not at par with IT jobs. Usually, the toppers of the electrical engineering branch secure jobs in the limited core companies that visit for placements.
NIT Rourkela Electrical Engineering is the perfect choice for those looking for a government job preferably in PSUs. PSUs give a lot of preference to Electrical Engineers especially from NIT Rourkela since most of their work involves the core engineering branches.
I asked a friend in NIT Rourkela regarding the current placement scenario of the EE branch. As per the information he shared, almost 92% of the student got placed in 2022. Top recruiting companies are Microsoft, Qualcomm, Oracle, Adobe, Wipro, Citi Bank, and SAP Labs. The highest CTC recorded was 55 LPA, while the average package was 11-12 LPA.
In all, placements in the electrical engineering branch of NIT Rourkela are great with immense opportunities in software roles, electrical and electronics roles, and analytical roles.
