Key insights:

1. Delhi colleges(DTU,NSUT) are nowhere near as dominant as they were for MS+MAANG alumni despite having bigger batch sizes than the other institutes..
2. RVCE is the standout performer having excellent number of alumni in all electronics companies.
3. Trichy and Warangal are neck and neck with Surathkal falling a bit behind.
4. IIT Hyderabad's performance is excellent, despite having a much smaller batch of students.
5. IIEST, NIT JSR and KKR are underperforming relative to their capability.
6. NIT Durgapur matching Jadavpur is shocking, considering the rich past of JU.

I was honestly surprised at how close it is between Trichy and Surathkal. Also, Rourkela is way behind its peers.

What do you all think about this? Also, what companies should I include in Part 2?

Note 1: I intentionally excluded NIT Delhi because it is not as established as these old NITs.

Note 2: For some institutes like NIT Bhopal, Surat, Allahabad, Jaipur, etc, there were multiple results, so I combined all the data.

Note 3: To clarify, AI hasn't been used whatsoever to get this data. I did it manually. AI has only been used to create the table for overall ranking,
