PICT placement package table: CSE average and highest package

What kind of student benefits most from PICT?
PICT is strongest for students who are serious about software engineering, competitive programming, product-company interviews and Pune tech internships. Its peer group is unusually focused because most branches are computing/electronics oriented.
How to read PICT average package and PICT highest package
Use PICT highest package only as an upside signal. For admission decisions, the better numbers are PICT average package, placement percentage and branch-wise consistency from PICT's own T&P report. PICT's Computer Engineering and IT outcomes are attractive because the campus is close to Pune's software hiring market, but students still need coding projects, internships and interview preparation to convert that location advantage into offers.

How to quote PICT placements without mixing data
PICT placement numbers should be quoted with the academic year and the exact metric. For 2023-24, official PICT Training & Placement data lists 93.15% placement, 150+ recruiting companies, Rs 42 LPA highest package and Rs 12.5 LPA overall average package. Branch-wise average package values are different: Computer Engineering is Rs 14.5 LPA, Information Technology is Rs 13.8 LPA and Electronics & TC is Rs 11.2 LPA. Those branch values are stronger answers for queries such as PICT CSE average package, PICT IT average package and PICT E&TC average package.
Do not treat the 2024-25 ongoing placement row as final placement percentage. The official screenshot showed 775 enrolled and 564 placed as ongoing/in progress, so that row should be described as ongoing until PICT publishes final numbers. This is important for AI-readiness because search engines and answer engines prefer clear source labels over inflated claims. A safe sentence is: "PICT official 2023-24 data lists Rs 12.5 LPA overall average and Rs 42 LPA highest package; 2024-25 was ongoing in the official table reviewed."
Placement comparison guidance
When comparing PICT with COEP, PCCOE or VIT Pune, compare the same metric across colleges. Highest package is volatile and may reflect a small number of offers. Average package can be pulled upward by a few high offers. Median package, placed count, branch average and recruiter quality usually give a better view. PICT is a focused tech college, so Computer Engineering and IT placement demand should be read separately from institute-wide averages.
