Which is better, K J Somaiya or SK Somaiya?

PI
Prachi Iyer Posted On : May 10th, 2026

K.J. Somaiya vs S.K. Somaiya — two institutions from the same Somaiya Vidyavihar University trust, but VERY different in what they offer.

K.J. Somaiya College of Engineering / K.J. Somaiya Institute of Management:

  • K.J. Somaiya = Kumarpal J. Somaiya group — the flagship institutions under Somaiya Vidyavihar University (SVU), Vidyavihar, Mumbai.
  • K.J. Somaiya Institute of Management: One of Mumbai's top MBA programs. NAAC A+. Average placement ~14-18 LPA (MBA). Competes with SPJIMR and NMIMS for top 5 B-schools in Mumbai.
  • K.J. Somaiya College of Engineering: Strong BTech program, especially CSE and IT. Good placement outcomes for private college (avg ~7-9 LPA CSE).

S.K. Somaiya College:

  • S.K. Somaiya = Sanatrao Kesrimal Somaiya — a different college under the same Somaiya trust, focused on B.Com, BMS, BBI, B.Sc.
  • Affiliated to Mumbai University. Degree says "Mumbai University."
  • Known primarily for commerce — particularly B.Com and BMS programs. Competitive within affiliated Mumbai University colleges for commerce.

Which to choose:

  • For Engineering or MBA: K.J. Somaiya (SVU) — significantly more prestigious.
  • For Commerce (B.Com/BMS): S.K. Somaiya is a solid Mumbai University affiliated college for commerce streams.

These are connected by name/trust but serve different educational segments entirely. Don't confuse them.

I am a fresher engineer. Should I do an MBA from a college like PUMBA or NL Dalmia?

AD
Aditi Deshpande Posted On : July 4th, 2023
Lives in Pune,Maharashtra

Both N.L. Dalmia and PUMBA are good options to pursue your MBA. Both offer more or less the same opportunities and exposure to their students. Both have a crowd of talented students which maintains a healthy competitive spirit.

The main point of difference between them is that of location. One is located in Mumbai while the other is located in Pune.

In terms of placement, PUMBA gives a good number of opportunities on campus. PUMBA does not offer 100% placements. However, you will get a couple more interviews if you do not clear the first interview.

Here are the overall 2022 placement highlights for PUMBA and N.L. Dalmia:

Particulars

PUMBA

N.L. Dalmia

Highest Package

INR 18 LPA

INR 15.3 LPA

Average Package 

INR 8.10 LPA

INR 8.51 LPA

Top Recruiters

Bajaj Finserv, Credit Suisse, Colgate Palmolive, Crisil, Federal Bank, Infosys, Piramal Group, HDFC, KPMG, Wipro, etc.

Abbott, Aditya Birla Group, Hindustan Unilever Limited, and ICICI Bank

N.L. Dalmia is popular for its MBA in Finance. However, not everyone can pursue Finance as there is a selection criterion for pursuing the same.

Both PUMBA and N.L. Dalmia, are good institutions to pursue your MBA. You can choose between the two institutions based on this information.

What should I choose - Maths and Computing in IIT Kharagpur or CSE in IIIT Hyderabad?

AB
Aditi Banerjee Posted On : March 23rd, 2023
Lives in Bangalore

A simple answer to this question would be IIT Hyderabad if you are looking for better academics and job prospects and IIT Kharagpur if you are on the lookout for a good social life.

Honestly, the course of math and computing at IIT KGP lacks the necessary requirements to impart true knowledge related to math and computing. The only reason why people still go for this course is the high placement packages offered at the end of five years. If you are adamant about joining IIT KGP, then I suggest you opt for a brand change and go for something that is more industry-relevant and worthy today.

The ultimate question is if you want to choose a college with good academics or good activities. Once you Are sure about the answer, Taking this decision will become much easier.
