Yes, private companies hire from B.Tech. in Aerospace Engineering at SASTRA University. Companies like Rockwell Collins, Honeywell, and others have been known to recruit from the university. However, the placement statistics vary, and not all students get placed in core companies. Some students may end up in IT companies like TCS. The university has a good reputation for placements, and many students have been placed in top companies.

SASTRA University enrolls students into CSE B.Tech courses under two streams hence having a single rank is not easy to mention. They have an internal ranking in their admission that has various criteria:Flow 1 (50 percent seats): JEE Main Marks (50 percent ) + Class 12 Marks (50 percent )In the case of CSE, a very high percentile in JEE Main (usually 97-98% or above), and outstanding Class 12 results (e.g. 90%+) are normally required. Stream 1 cut-offs in the past years have been around the 600-800 all India rank of SASTRA.Stream 2 (50 percent Seats): Class 12 Marks Only (100 percent)In the case of CSE in this category, the Class 12 marks have to be very high, i.e., it has to be 95 percent and above. The internal SASTRA ranking of CSE here is naturally not expected to be above 500.CSE is very competitive at SASTRA thus the cutils are always on a high. They vary on an annual basis. You have had to have completed Class 12 with Physics and Maths being the compulsory subjects and gone with Chemistry/Biotechnology/Computer Science/Biology and the score should at least be 60 percent in aggregate.In a clear picture, one can always go to the official site of SASTRA during the admissions and get the latest brochure and past year cut offs which are their internally generated ranks. One is advised to apply both streams in case he or she qualifies.
