Sir, he may get IT in NIT Surathkal (probably). He won't get CSE there. Will IT in NIT Surathkal be better than MNNIT CSE though?

Ans: Yes go for IT at Surathkal

Sir, he may get IT in NIT Surathkal (probably). He won't get CSE there. Will IT in NIT Surathkal be better than MNNIT CSE though?

Ans: Still Surathkal will be a better choice as it is close to tech hub bangalore.
there won't be a major difference in package except for 1-2 LPA from CSE at MNNIT.

Ans: Preference order should be:
1. MNNIT Allahabad CSE
2. NIT Surathkal IT
3. NIT Rourkela CSE

Other NITs
NIT Warangal CSE/IT (very tough but try till last round)

NIT Trichy CSE/IT (try — chance slightly low, but CSAB gives surprise seats)

NIT Calicut CSE/IT (good chances)

NIT Durgapur CSE/IT (safe option — HS quota also for WB)

NIT Jamshedpur CSE/IT

NIT Silchar CSE/IT

NIT Meghalaya CSE (back-up option if needed)

IIITs
IIIT Hyderabad (unlikely at 708 SC Rank for CSE, but register separately)

IIIT Delhi (through separate UCEED/JAC counselling)

IIIT Allahabad CSE/IT (Good — possible in CSAB)

IIIT Gwalior (IPG-IT dual degree is very good — check)

IIIT Lucknow (CSE/Data Science — booming placements)

IIIT Bhubaneswar (CSE — decent)

Question by Ramachandran - Jun 09, 2026Hindi

Money

"My take-home salary is ₹1.7 lakh per month, and I sold my plot for a capital gain of ₹30 lakh. Please let me know how much of it will be taxable. I am also planning to construct a house, so please suggest how I can reduce my tax."

Ans: If you are constructing an house and if it gets completed within 3 years from the date of sale of plot, then you can claim exemption from capital gain of plot. Till the construction starts, you need to keep the sale proceeds in the capital gain scheme account.
You need to consult CA to arrive at capital gain, its investment so that exemption can be claimed etc.

I am in vit chennai.so i am going to my second year.recently i got a chance to change from fashion technology to mechatronics and autoomation.i plan on changing because i am not that interested in fashion tech and i am quite interested in mechatronics.but i am not sure if this decison will be right or wrong.what should i do?

Ans: If you are genuinely interested in robotics/systems, **switch to Mechatronics & Automation**. Staying in Fashion Tech with low interest will hurt long-term growth and placements. Switch only after confirming the curriculum, workload, and placement outcomes before the final decision. (You have to cover the 1st-year extra syllabus as well.) Many students do this kind of exercise in the 2nd year. You can also be one of them. No harm in shifting from one branch to another while keeping your interest in learning alive.

Good luck.
