| IET Lucknow: Government Fee, NIRF 101-150, Google and Microsoft Recruiting |
| Exams covered: JEE Main · UPTAC | State: Uttar Pradesh | Fee band: ~Rs 3.6 - 4 L at govt rate |
|
| IET Lucknow is the standout of the Uttar Pradesh set: a government autonomous institute under AKTU, NIRF 101-150, an average package of ₹7.00–8.20 lakh and recruiters including Google and Microsoft. The only objection is a map. |
| THE NUMBERS THAT MATTER |
| Total four-year fee | ~Rs 3.6 - 4 L at govt rate |
| Yearly (average) | About Rs 0.90 lakh a year on the average (total divided by four). Year-wise and category-wise splits differ — confirm the actual schedule with the college. |
| Median package | Rs 6.15 LPA (ECE) |
| Average package | Rs 7.00 - 8.20 LPA |
| Placement rate | |
| Cutoff | 40,786 - 47,364 (HS) / 34,482 (AI) |
| HOW YOU GET IN |
| Admission route for Institute of Engineering and Technology (IET Lucknow): UPTAC. The cutoff to plan around is 40,786 - 47,364 (HS) / 34,482 (AI). Always confirm the current cycle's dates, eligibility and seat matrix on the official portal before you file. |
| TWO THINGS MOVING RIGHT NOW |
| 1. Fees at the government rate of roughly ₹3.6–4 lakh for the whole degree against a ₹7–8 lakh average is the best ratio in the UP set, by a distance. |
| 2. Cutoffs of 40,786–47,364 for home-state candidates and 34,482 for all-India candidates are the tightest in the AKTU group — this is the UP state equivalent of a Delhi government college. |
| THE HONEST READ |
| For a student who can relocate to Lucknow, this is the best engineering purchase in Uttar Pradesh. For a Delhi family that cannot, the honest answer is that AKGEC and GL Bajaj are the local substitutes. |
| THE STANDOUT. Government fee, NIRF 101-150, Google and Microsoft recruiting. But it is in Lucknow, 500 km away. |
| BEFORE YOU PAY THE FIRST INSTALMENT |
| 1. Ask for the branch-wise median — the institute figure hides the branch you are actually joining. |
| 2. Ask for the placed-versus-eligible count, not the percentage. A count is evidence; a percentage is a claim. |
| 3. Ask which quota or fee category the quote refers to. In this college the same seat can carry two or three different prices. |
| 4. Diarise the counselling round you are planning for, and the refund deadline that follows it. |
|
| TALK TO SOMEONE WHO HAS ACTUALLY DONE IT |
| Talk 1:1 with final-year students of the exact course and college you are considering. Ask them what the brochure will never tell you — how the teaching actually works, which branches get real recruiter attention, what the hostel and mess cost in year three, and what the final bill looked like. Then decide, with the full picture in front of you. We also handle end-to-end guidance on engineering form filling, counselling rounds, seat allotment, campus visits and travel. |
