Remarks
All in all IIT Bombay is the best college in India any aspiring engineer could ever hope for. The experience and growth that one experiences in these 4-5 years of engineering are incredible. They could do something about the reservation though.
Course Curriculum Overview
The course structure is good although some improvements can be made. We are mostly graded based on several quizzes, mid sem, and end sem exam. In my opinion, they should reduce the number of written tests and increase the number of projects and practicals for a better learning experience.
Placement Experience
IIT Bombay is known for its placements. In my cranch placements are generally 90%+. We can get internships in our 3rd year of engineering through the placement cell which is approached by many companies and universities looking for interns. I am in my second year so I haven't had an experience yet. Stipends generally lie between 10000-1.5 lakhs per month INR

Fees and Financial Aid
As stated in a previous answer, if you are from a financially unsecure family, or belong to a reserved category, you can get up to a 100% tuition waiver. You are however expected to pay back the amount after you graduate and are able to so as to keep the scholarship available for future generations.
