DTSS an unknown all rounder that matches the modern vibes.
Placements: About 20-30 percent got placed in that, but education and knowledge is absolute. The highest package is about 10-12 LPA and the lowest is 3 LPA. Some of the companies are known and collaborative with the college. I can't say much about internships and else, but the college does offer free books, scholarships, and many other options. . If a person gives a letter about a job, they will be perfectly cooperative with that too.
Infrastructure: Classroom is good. The library is big, good looking, and has air conditioning inside. You can take books from there too. Basically, it is above average on studies and quality education. As per my previous knowledge, this college has a fun college life. Even for sports people, they have every sports option. I really enjoy this college. The timing is a bit adjusting because it's from 7-11 am, so we get the whole day to do anything else.
Faculty: Teachers are really polite and respectful. They are friendly and approachable, perfectly humble as some teachers should be. They provide quality education and have knowledge beyond studies too. Semester exams are based on what they have taught. Even if struggling, they will help you pass.
Other: I took Science in 11th and 12th as I had interest in management and marketing. Listening to my heart, I took this course last. They teach quality stuff and try to get us into business by announcing stall handling and selling at least once a month. Events are almost happening the whole year. But if someone wishes to study, they teach. Everything is good here.

Good to go to college, great placements, and the best in suburbs and good infrastructure.
Placements: In the B.Com course, 80 percent of our students got placed. The highest package is 25.5 LPA, the average is around 9 LPA, and the lowest package is between 6 LPA-7 LPA. 50 to 80 percent of B.Com students got internships in companies like Tech, Mahindra, Tata Consultancy, and Infosys. The top roles are managerial, analytical, human resources manager, etc.
Infrastructure: B.Com course with a range of facilities including a library, computer labs, air-conditioned classrooms, and a gymkhana with indoor and outdoor sports facilities like a gym, carrom, chess, table tennis, football, cricket, and volleyball. The college generally offers good facilities with a well-regarded hygiene canteen serving affordable food, good medical facilities that include first aid and health camps, and a wide range of sports and games like cricket, football, and badminton.
Faculty: The teachers are very helpful, qualified, and knowledgeable. The teaching quality is amazing. The Prahladrai Dalmia Lions College B.Com course is considered to have a relevant curriculum and helps make students industry-ready due to its blend of theoretical and practical knowledge. Semester exams are generally considered moderate, though they can be challenging at times. The pass percentage for the exam is 40 percent.

I say that this college is great for studies and is very easy on the students.
Placements: About 80% of the students are placed. The highest package is 4.80 LPA, the lowest is 1.80 LPA. Companies like Tech Mahindra, Sugar Rush, etc., recruit. About 40% of the students get internships. The only students who did great got the internship. The roles offered are for beginners or a little above.
Infrastructure: The facilities provided include an open-to-use library. Projectors in each class. Extra classrooms for group studies beside the canteen. Cold water is provided all over campus. There are 2 canteens and 1 cafe-type place called Poshan. A variety of cheap food is sold, which is filling. Medical facilities are top-notch because it's a part of a hospital, and a medical college is right beside my college. There are various courts of basketball, volleyball, etc. There is a large area for cricket and football too.
Faculty: The teachers are well-selected and teach very well. The course is a bit random, the core subjects are good, but the non-core subjects require a lot of attention, or they are rather demanding, like for a subject called content writing, we had to create a movie from scratch with a group of 10 people. That was very hectic. The course is curriculum-relevant. The exams are quite easy, or rather well-made, i.e., if you prepare, you will pass.
Other: This course is the easier version of the engineering one, it covers all the topics of the engineering one, but doesn't go that deep into the topic. The events are all student-planned and are held with votes.

Really good college and placement cell is also good.
Placements: Most of the students from the computer branch are placed in college. But the placement cell is good, and they are trying to place as many students as possible. From our department, only a few students were placed last year. But the overall placement activities are very good in college.
Infrastructure: The college provides Wi-Fi in the library for study. Labs are good, but some class work is in progress now. For sports, the college has turf. The sports event is fun for students. I have no idea about the hostel, but the distance of the hostel from the college is very short, so it can be good for the students.
Faculty: Teachers are very helpful in our department. We can discuss any problem with our HOD, and they try to solve every problem. The pass percentage is good, and sometimes it is difficult, but sometimes it is easy to pass the exam. Teachers help us before the exam.
Other: I chose this course because of the CET percentile. I have a low percentile, so I have failed to get into the computer and IT department. But now I am happy to get this course.

Overall experience is good, not better.
Placements: Terna Engineering College mostly focuses on placements for CSE and ENTC, so the percentage of students is higher compared to other departments. The highest package is 15 LPA, which an EXTC guy got, and the lowest is 1.25 LPA for the mechanical and civil branches. Top recruiting companies are TCS, Godrej, and Deloitte. Almost zero students get internships from college, as the college focuses more on attendance than skills, so no internships from college, but you can do internships from outside. Roles like consultant, junior engineer, like that.
Infrastructure: Labs are okay, not so great, where some computers don't even work, some keyboards or mouse don't work. Hostel facilities are good, but we all know hostels in India are all the same. That's it, nothing more or good about the college, it's just the teachers should explain more deeply and like multiple times when everyone's doubts are fulfilled, instead of just telling them to go through the lab manual.
Faculty: The teachers are good, though the course curriculum is also relevant, but the course doesn't make students industry-ready. Students have to do external courses to be industry-ready. Exams are easy if you are a good student. The passing percentage is good, but still college fail some students on purpose so that you'll fill evaluation forms and you are passed, that's how they do it, not just Terna but most of these 3-tier colleges, even Mumbai University does that, so it's better you be ready for this.
Other: About my course, which is EXTC, I wanted CSE but ended up getting EXTC. It's interesting, and I started loving it. The quality of labs should be improved, and the overall infrastructure of the college needs to be improved. Events are great in college, you can engage with students from different departments, and it's good for networking. A teacher should know how to help students and make them industry-ready, not just bookworms. Most of the students don't even know what the industry is, or what they need to learn to get a job.
