Gokaraju Rangaraju Institute of Engineering & Technology (GRIET)

Gokaraju Rangaraju Institute of Engineering and Technology (GRIET), Hyderabad, established 1997, is a government-aided, autonomous private engineering college in Bachupally, affiliated to JNTU Hyderabad. NIRF placed it in the 101-150 band for engineering in 2024 - a genuinely strong rank, better than several higher-profile Hyderabad private colleges, though the file previously omitted it entirely. Per 2024 placement reporting, the median package was around ₹6 LPA with a highest offer of ₹34 LPA.

Founded by the Gokaraju Rangaraju Educational Society. Bachupally is west Hyderabad - close to Pragathi Nagar and Miyapur IT corridors; HITEC City 15 km, Gachibowli 18 km. Co-ed institution; among top-tier Hyderabad CSE alternatives to CBIT, VNR-VJIET, Vasavi.

BTech admission through TS EAMCET counselling - primary route. Management quota also available. ~1500 BTech intake across 8+ branches. CSE and IT specialisations are highly competitive - among the top TS EAMCET cutoffs for any Hyderabad private college.

Per 2024 placement reporting, the median package was around ₹6 LPA with a highest offer of ₹34 LPA. Over 800 students were placed in 2024, though no clean eligible-student denominator was found, so a placement rate is not shown rather than guessed.

Branch-wise B.Tech Placements

Branch-wise figures are ESTIMATES ONLY, not independently verified against an official GRIET report. The college-wide verified median (₹6 LPA, 2024) is well below every branch figure shown here, which is a sign these branch numbers likely run optimistic - the same pattern found in MGIT's branch table. Needs a follow-up pass against an official branch-wise disclosure.
