I have arranged all the above colleges in the order of their general ranks.
IIEST Shibpur: One of the oldest institutes in the country.
IIT Gwalior: CSE-oriented college and as prestigious as NITs.
NIT Durgapur: A prime REC-to-NIT
NIT Jamshedpur: An old RIT/REC-to-NIT with excellent facilities and infrastructures.
NIT Jalandhar: An old REC-to-NIT
NIT Delhi: It lies in the capital and enjoys better connectivity.
NIT Goa: It is a new college, but lies in the coastal zone and has better connectivity.
NIT Hamirpur: Included in the NIRF rank list, but communication/connectivity is poor as it is located in hilly terrain.
Remember that the order can always be changed based on your own convenience regarding location. The general order is:
IIEST Shibpur>IIT Gwalior>NIT Durgapur>NIT Jamshedpur>NIT Jalandhar>NIT Delhi>NIT Goa>NIT Hamirpur
NIT Jalandhar has two hostels
Hostel 1- First-year students
Hostel 2- Second-year students
Hostel 1- Some of its features are:
Decent infrastructure
Good lawn.
Washing machines
The mess food is above average
TV room and a TT table
Hostel 2- It has all the similar facilities. The only distinguishing feature between the two is that
For internet, Hostel 1 has no LAN and Wi-Fi facilities but Hostel 2 does.
There are many aspects to this answer. If you are from South India then go for NIT Calicut. It has a reputation for good placement records. Here are the placement statistics for both NIT Calicut and VNIT Nagpur.
Parameters | NIT Calicut | VNIT Nagpur |
Average CTC | 11.58 LPA | 3.3 LPA |
Highest CTC | 49 LPA | 22 LPA |
Major recruiters | HDFC, Nokia, AESL, Bosch, etc. | FCA, Goldman Sachs, L&T Infotech, etc. |
If you are not from South India, then choose according to your convenience. Don’t choose Calicut over Nagpur as it is not an easy place to live in for four years. If you like a lot of alone time then Calicut will be suitable for you. Nagpur is in central India. So, you will have easy connectivity to your home town. VNIT is located in the middle of the city. You will enjoy your stay there.
Both are good institutes. Choose according to the proximity.
I have got a few of my close friends studying in these institutes, here are some points according to their experience.

CSE at IIIT Guwahati is a better option because of the placements and permanent campus.
One of my friends is an alumnus of NIT Surathkal and was in awe of it since the beginning of his academic program.
Another friend of mine was in the third year of chemical engineering in NIT Nagpur and felt as if he did not gain any technical knowledge after studying for three years. This is something overlooked by most 'excellent' universities across India and they do not allow students to question it. Therefore, if you have a better option available- go for that, not any NIT.
My cousin recently enrolled in NIT Hamirpur and definitely loves the state-of-the-art facilities. It provides and its modern infrastructure. It has excellent facilities in its 320 acres area which includes a computer centre, a library with over 100,000 books, an auditorium, a guest house, sports grounds, solar heaters, hostels, gym, and of course- lifts.
NIT Hamirpur has a lift facility in the departments which offer UG programs. Some more lifts have been added in some of the newly built hostels which are for students in the second year and beyond, much Iike NIT Nagpur has a lift in the new academic block and the new hostel.
Another point here, the New Hostels are for girls and boys in the first year, only.
NIT Surathkal is ranked 13 in India for BTech by NIRF 2020. Whereas, NIT Nagpur is ranked 27 for the same by NIRF 2020. NIT Nagpur also ranks 3rd in Maharashtra by NIRF 2020 and has collaborated with many industries and R&D organizations.
As the courses in the question are not the same it is tough to evaluate which institute will be better. Here is some of the important information about the two courses which may help you in making the decision.
