  • Dear Ashish Solanki,
    The eligibility criteria for LPU placement depend on the companies which are interviewing the candidates. During your pre-final year, you will be asked to enroll for placements. i.e during 6th semester for 4 year course and 4th semester for 3 year course.
    If we talk about the approximation CGPA which you have to maintain is 6 and there should be no backlogs if BIG IT companies visiting here in our campus.
    To get placed in good product based company it is advisable that you must have CGPA above 7.5 per the requirement of the highest salary paying companies.
    When it comes to Backlogs most companies not wish to take bac

    Hi,
    CGPA does matter as it acts as a green signal to sit in the placement drives. Several companies set different criteria for eligibility. For instance, for most companies, it is 60%, for others, it is 70%. So, I would suggest you study to score good Cgpa and have the best placement offer.
    Thanks.

    Definitely , CGPA does matter for the best placement as it plays a very important role and it is a matter of fact that companies prefer candidates with good CGPA. There is bi-directional causality between CGPA and placement means good CGPA holder will demand higher package and similarly, best company will ask for those candidates with good CGPA.
    It is important to mention that CGPA requirements differ from company to company as profiles with higher packages will always demand higher CGPA. It is always advisable to the students to maintain a good CGPA so that acceptability to the companies is higher and you become much more placeable.

    Yes, actually I shouldn't use to get categorized by their CGPA, and number of projects they have done. So that companies may evaluate them accordingly.

    Although, CGPA is not given that much importance, if you are good with your basics, and you are the technical written tests. But, there are few companies, which shortlist the top students only, in that case, you can face an issue, if you haven't scored a decent one. So, focus on your basics, and it is good, if you have some extra-curricular activities.

    Think placements as a castle and all the companies that come are rooms in it. The castle has a master key to enter the hall. And from the hall, you are required to get the keys for the room (for companies). Now first thing first if you have no backlogs and few repairs you will probably have the master key to push through the main gate into the castle. And next when companies come they put some conditions for the CGPA like they need people above 7 CGPA etc. Now after entering the hall there you eligibility keys would be given based on conditions set. Now anyone above the bar all has the same key it doesn't matter you are 9 pointers or 8

    CGPA is just to show you are also good in academics but your other curricular activities also matter for best placement not just in LPU but everywhere.
