It's Jadavpur University.

Placements: The placement of this campus was so good that many students tried to get enrolled on this college by not choosing the IITs. The brand value of this campus was very high all over India. The average package varied between 8 LPA and 15 LPA. The highest package can go above 15 LPA if you try to go for non-core roles. Most roles offered were either production engineer or marketing engineer.

Review of J.D Birla Institute (JDBI).

Placements: I’m just a fresher in my college, so I really don’t know about the placements, but I’ve heard the placements are pretty good and the internship process is very detailed. It’s made compulsory for us to have an internship in the third year of college, and it’s a part of the course itself.
