NIT

Depends on your category.
For general category, at least aim for 150+. The more you get above it, more are your chances. For OBC and SC/ST, it is a bit low.

Actually, the fee of all NITs is not same even semester fee of NIT-Agartala is not same as the hotstel fee of all semsters. It is 18000 (including mess) and tuition fee varies according to the semester, but approximately INR 70,000 per semester (after batch 2015_19) because the policy of MHRD has been changed from 2016, but if your family income is less than 1.5 lakhs then you need to pay the half of tuition fee.

I can tell you about SRM University. It has 100% placement in CSE department. Many big firms recruit students from SRM University like Cisco, Amazon and E&Y.
You can check the placement records here.
