Hi aspirant,
I would go with Sri Balaji Society for its return on investment which I will get ROI in terms of the placement package. As you pay nearly 7-8 lakhs of fee, you get an average package of Rs 5,50,000 which is quite good. Also, the alumni strength is very good almost 12000+ alumni and still growing in MNC will definitely make the college reach more in corporate.
