Across Companies and Branches: The Breadth of the 2026 Season
The placement ecosystem extends well beyond the headline packages. Priyanshu Raikwar was placed at Synchrony at 12 LPA. Shailendra Soni joined TCS at 9 LPA through B.Tech CSE. Tayyaba Khan and Shreya both joined the Aditya Birla Group at 7 LPA through B.Tech CSE. Kapil Kumar Ojha was placed at Bosch Global Software Technologies at 7 LPA. Tarun Manikanta Sai Battula joined the Coffee Day Group at 4.5 LPA through B.Tech. Vivek Prajapati joined Hero MotoCorp at 4 LPA through B.Tech Lateral Entry.
MBA placements demonstrate that the ecosystem is not CSE-only. Harshvardhan Singh Mourya was placed at MyGate at 10 LPA through MBA Marketing. Varnita Agarwal joined KPMG at 4.5 LPA through MBA. These represent consulting, fintech, and consumer brand companies hiring across disciplines from the same campus.
Four second-year B.Tech CSE student (Saavi Kotadia, Divya Jain, Samiksha Lohia, Soumya Batwal) were selected in the top 100 from 21,000 applicants nationally in LinkedIn CoachIn. Not final-year students. Second-year.
The System That Produces These Results
IMPACT Training
DSA through C++ and Java. MERN stack. Competitive programming. Professional grooming. External trainers. Daily sessions for second and third-year students. This closed Parth Bangoria’s coding gap after GATE and rebuilt Soumya Dhakad’s confidence after 200 rejections. Head here to read how 40 days IMPACT training led students to 60+ LPA!
Training & Placement Cell Advocacy
When Soumya’s CGPA did not meet the cutoff, the cell communicated with the company’s HR and secured his eligibility. When Parth had a safer offer, the cell supported his decision to hold out for HashedIn. T&P Cell’s officials describes the cell’s role as recognising potential that a transcript does not capture and ensuring it gets a chance to be seen. The system treats eligibility as a problem to solve, not a gate to close./p>
The Student-as-Trainer Cycle
Soumya became a Training & Placement Cell trainer after his 43 LPA placement. The knowledge transfer is peer-to-peer: from someone who faced 200 rejections to juniors going through the same process. Swapnil Sir (now Dean of PIET) mentored Soumya. Soumya mentors juniors. Those juniors will mentor the next batch.
Beyond Placements: The Business-Ready Mindset
The university’s mission goes beyond securing placements. PIERC (254 startups, Rs 20 crore+ funding, Rs 40 crore+ revenue, startup studios in 4 cities, Shark Tank India appearances) develops the same problem-solving and persistence skills that competitive programming builds. Parth Bangoria’s Axamine.ai started at PIERC. The mindset that drives a student through 200 rejections is the same mindset that drives a founder through failed prototypes.
