Career

Sir, Which is better in terms of placement and future job prospects - BITS Pilani Mechanical Engineering or CSE Thapar University?

Ans: Both fields have promising prospects, but it ultimately depends on your passion and career aspirations. Explore your interests and make an informed decision. You should choose based on your interest & consider your long-term career goals.

If you enjoys coding, problem-solving, and new technology, CSE focuses on programming and algorithms. CSE graduates have a wide range of career options, including software development, data science, artificial intelligence, and consulting. Thapar University’s average placement package is around INR 11.9 LPA, and the highest package offered is INR 55.75 LPA.

While Mechanical Engineering requires a strong foundation in physics and mechanics. Mechanical engineers from BITS Pilani have opportunities in various industries, including automotive, manufacturing, and research.
BITS Pilani has a strong placement record, with an average package of INR 30.37 LPA and the highest package reaching INR 60.75 LPA in recent years.

Sir what's better to choose between mechanical engineering at thapar and cse from a tier 3 college please guide

Question by Prakash - Apr 10, 2026Hindi

Money

am having flat in hyderabad which was registered as gift deed in 2009 and if i want to sell the flat on today date the valve may be 75 Lakhs what can be capital gain. Actual cost was 2.2 lakhs in 1986 . As my age is 65 years and i dont want to use for contruction or investment in new flat. How can i save capital gain. Your advise

Ans: Whatever LTCG (Long Term Capital Gain) is there, you may purchase Capital Gain Bonds (maximum limit is Rs.50.00 (L) to save your tax. Since you don't want to invest in a new Flat or House, this may be a good option. Please remember the time limit of purchasing the Bonds is within 6 months, from the date of sale of Asset/Flat.
Most Welcome for further clarifications, if any. Thanks.
