For SRM the placements for all the campus takes place in the main campus itself. The students of all the different campuses come here for placements so there is no specific number for Sonepat campus. For details on SRM as a whole you can check out the university website.

Hello Abhishek,
All these three universities are the top colleges for CSE. But in terms of rankings, VIT University tops the list. While SRM University ranks second and Manipal Institute of Technology is at the third.
So my preference order would be :
1) VIT University, Vellore
2) SRM University main campus
3) Manipal Institute of Technology, Manipal.
You may refer the links below for the complete list of placements :

There is no counseling fee for SRM, but while coming for counseling you need to bring a check for INR 1 lacs and if you back out after that, then you'll get 90,000 back. But, if you join then you just need to pay the remaining fee and no separate fee will be charged for counseling.

The main campus which is located in Kancheepuram is the best for all the streams provided, because it has the best facilities provided. Also, the number of students from different parts of the country as well as world are much more than any other campus. A lot of co-curricular activities also takes place so you get a good exposure and ample amount of opportunities to take part and do things other than studies. The faculty and the equipment are also a lot better than in any other campus so the main campus is the best option for any stream. Though you will miss out on city life as the city is more than 1hr journey but you'll get a good campus life which city campus won't give.

I would go for VIT any day just because the college has a better reputation ranking 6th on the list of the best private, while SRM ranks 11th on the same list.
Life at VIT is a little more hectic and restricting than life at SRM, this is because of the fact that you will have to solve daily assignments and your classes runs from 8:00 to 7:00 if you belong to CSE in the first year, this is the case at VIT.
While at SRM, you have classes till 5:00 in the first year, and there are no such assignments. Also, you get to go out as many times as you want to, unlike VIT.
So in clear sense, you get to have much more freedom at SRM.
Placements:
More core companies visit VIT in comparison to SRM and so the placements at VIT are certainly a lot better.
Fees:
You have to pay a lot more at SRM if you happen to secure a rank more than SRMJEEE than you get to pay at VIT. Also, the hostel facility is also more expensive at SRM than in comparison to VIT.
With this, I hope you make the right choice.
Cheers!
