VIT Pune B.Tech fees 2026-27 (CAP seats)

These are the first-year amounts payable on CAP seats, by category. Reserved-category figures reflect state government scholarship and fee-waiver schemes, which have their own income and eligibility rules.

*4-year estimate = first-year fee × 4. Only the 2026-27 fee is official; fees for later years are set by the Fees Regulating Authority (FRA) and can change.

Institute-level seat fees (by branch)

Institute-level seats are filled outside the normal category system, so fee concessions do not apply. Fees are higher for the most in-demand computer branches.

NRI category

For NRI seats, the 2026-27 tuition and development fee is US $12,000 per year, plus about ₹6,671 in eligibility, exam, university and insurance fees. The fee is the same across all 12 branches.

Total cost of studying at VIT Pune

For an Open-category student staying in the college hostel, a realistic yearly budget looks like this:

Over 4 years, an Open-category hosteller should plan for roughly ₹15–16 lakh in total. Hostel also needs a ₹5,000 refundable deposit. Students staying in a PG near Bibwewadi may pay less or more depending on the room.

VIT Pune offers 12 B.Tech branches for 2026-27. CAP seats are split as 65% Maharashtra, 15% all-India and 15% other quotas; institute-level seats cover NRI, CIWGC and OCI/foreign nationals.

VIT Pune MHT-CET cutoff 2025 (General merit rank)

These are closing ranks for the General quota, Open category, in the 2025 CAP rounds. A lower rank means a tougher cutoff.

Cutoffs change every year. Use last year's closing rank as a guide when filling your CAP option form.

VIT Pune placements

According to data reported for 2024-25 (citing NIRF), 1,442 of 1,532 graduating students were placed, with a median package of about ₹8.10 LPA, an average of about ₹9.5 LPA and a highest package of ₹45 LPA. For B.Tech alone in 2023-24, the NIRF median was ₹7.5 LPA. Regular recruiters include Accenture, Microsoft, Infosys, TCS, Tata Motors, Amazon, IBM and Volkswagen India.

Is VIT Pune worth the fees?

For an Open-category CAP student, the 4-year tuition of about ₹8.5 lakh is roughly equal to one year of median salary (about ₹8.1 LPA). That is a reasonable return for a private college in Pune. The picture changes for institute-level computer seats: about ₹25 lakh for four years is a much harder investment to justify on the same salary data.

If your rank is close to the cutoff, compare VIT Pune with other autonomous colleges such as PICT (see PICT fees for 4 years) and with TFWS seats, which can cut fees sharply for eligible students.
