🔍 How we source the numbers on this page. Fees follow SRMIST's official fee structure; placement highlights follow SRMIST's own AY2024-25 press releases and NIRF 2025 follows SRMIST's own ranking announcement. SRMIST does not publish an official SRMJEEE cutoff PDF, so cutoff figures on this page are trend-based estimates built from SRMJEEE's own phase-wise closing data, clearly labelled as estimates. Aggregator "average package" figures are not used as primary sources.
Evidence note. Check the year printed beside every changing figure — fees, cut-offs and placement numbers are reissued each cycle. Nothing on this page should be multiplied to reach a multi-year total beyond what is explicitly shown. A closing rank from an early SRMJEEE phase and the full-cycle closing rank for the same branch are two different numbers, not two estimates of the same thing — see the cutoff section for why.

SRM Chennai (KTR) B.Tech Fee Structure 2026 (Direct Admission & Institutional Quota)
SRM follows a transparent fee structure that varies based on branch demand. The two tables below show the same fee picture at two levels of detail: branch-group ranges as SRM prices them for Direct Admission/Institutional Quota, and the exact year-wise total for the two most-asked-about branch groups.
Branch-wise Annual Fees (Institute Circular)
📌 In one line: official SRMIST fee structure — branch-wise; confirm the current-year circular.
| Branch Group | Annual Tuition Fee (Approx.) |
|---|---|
| CSE Core (KTR) | ₹4,50,000 - ₹5,00,000 |
| CSE Specializations | ₹4,00,000 - ₹4,50,000 |
| ECE / Mechanical / Civil | ₹2,50,000 - ₹3,00,000 |
| B.Pharm / Biotech | ₹2,00,000 - ₹2,50,000 |
Year-wise B.Tech Fee Breakdown (4-Year Total)
📌 In one line: official SRMIST fee structure — branch-wise; confirm the current-year circular.
| Branch | Year 1 | Year 2 | Year 3 | Year 4 | Total (4 yr) |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| CSE Core | ₹4,75,000 | ₹4,75,000 | ₹4,75,000 | ₹4,75,000 | ₹19,00,000 |
| CSE specialisations (AI/ML, Cloud, Big Data) | ₹4,25,000 | ₹4,25,000 | ₹4,25,000 | ₹4,25,000 | ₹17,00,000 |
| ECE / Mechanical / Civil | ₹2,75,000 | ₹2,75,000 | ₹2,75,000 | ₹2,75,000 | ₹11,00,000 |
| NRI / International | USD 4,500 | USD 4,500 | USD 4,500 | USD 4,500 | USD 18,000 |
SRM fees are among the most competitive for a top-15 NIRF-ranked institution. Merit scholarships of ₹25,000–₹2,00,000/year are available based on SRMJEEE rank. The SRM Ramanujan Scholarship covers full tuition for students with JEE Main AIR below 5,000. Hostel and mess are billed separately — see the Hostel section below for the standard vs premium tiers; nothing above should be read as including hostel.
Management Quota (Direct Admission)
At FindUrCollege, we regularly help families weigh the Management Quota option at SRM — here is the honest picture.
- The Reality: SRM has a dedicated category for "Direct Admission" where seats are offered based on a higher fee structure if the student's SRMJEEE rank is not sufficient for KTR.
- Our Advice: Apply for SRMJEEE Phase 1 to get the lowest possible fee category. If missed, Management Quota becomes an option for premium branches like CSE.
SRM Chennai (KTR) Hostel Fees & Campus Life
Hostel Fee Tiers
SRM KTR hostel fees run in two distinct tiers, not one range — reading them as a single ₹80,000–₹3,50,000 band overstates the low end and understates the high end for the tier a given student will actually be allotted:
- Standard Boys'/Girls' Hostels: approximately ₹80,000–₹1,20,000 per year depending on room type (this is the tier most students are allotted).
- Premium "International Hostels": AC rooms, attached washrooms and gym access, going up to ₹3,50,000 per year — a separate, opt-in premium tier, not the default.
Confirm the current academic year's tier-wise hostel circular with SRM before booking — hostel allotment is separate from academic seat confirmation and is not guaranteed by seat confirmation alone.
Hostel Facilities & Campus Amenities
15,000+ hostel beds across boys' and girls' blocks. Multiple mess options — Indian, continental, and South Indian cuisine. Wi-Fi in all rooms, 24x7 security with CCTV, biometric access to hostel blocks. Publication of this capacity does not guarantee an allotment in any specific block.
Located about 45 km from Chennai city, Kattankulathur has developed into a small tech township around SRM. Chennai's IT corridor (OMR Road) is roughly 30 km away. The campus is effectively a residential university with amenities on-site.
200+ student clubs covering technical, cultural, social, sports, and entrepreneurial activities. SRM clubs include chapters of IEEE, ACM, Google DSC, and Microsoft Learn Student Ambassadors, among other domain-specific interest groups.
SRM runs exchange programs with 200+ international universities (see the SAP section below). SRM also has established employer connections with South Korean companies (Samsung R&D, Hyundai) alongside its academic exchange partners.
SRM Chennai (KTR) Placements: Highest Package, Average & Top Recruiters
2025 Placement Highlights
SRM holds several records for the highest number of students placed in a single day.
- Highest Package (2025): ₹65 LPA (institute-reported; SRM Group's own AY2024-25 press release separately confirms a ₹65 LPA highest package across the SRM Group).
- Average Package (Overall, 2025): ~₹6.66 LPA (institute-reported).
- Average Package (CSE): ~₹9.5 LPA (institute-reported; see the 3-year trend table below for the year this was actually reached).
- Top Recruiters: Amazon, PayPal, Barclays, Morgan Stanley, TCS, Cognizant, Wipro, and Infosys.
- Offers above ₹20 LPA: SRM Group's own AY2024-25 announcement states 202 students received offers above ₹20 LPA, across all SRM Group campuses combined (Kattankulathur, Ramapuram, Vadapalani, Trichy, Delhi-NCR, Sonepat and Amaravati) — a KTR-only figure is not separately published, so treat 202 as the SRM-Group ceiling, not a KTR-specific count.
Source note: NIRF publishes a median salary, not an average or a highest package — treat the average and highest figures above as institute-reported and verify them against SRMIST's official placement report.
3-Year Placement Trend (2022-23 to 2024-25)
📌 In one line: placement figures per SRMIST disclosures — year-labeled; verify current data.
| Metric | 2022-23 | 2023-24 | 2024-25 |
|---|---|---|---|
| Eligible Students | 4,500 | 4,800 | 5,000 |
| Students Placed | 3,870 | 4,200 | 4,450 |
| Placement % | 86% | 88% | 89% |
| Average CTC (CSE) | ₹7.5 LPA | ₹8.5 LPA | ₹9.5 LPA |
| Highest CTC | ₹38 LPA | ₹44 LPA | ₹65 LPA |
| Companies Visiting | 500+ | 600+ | 700+ |
The ₹9.5 LPA CSE average cited in the highlights above is this table's own 2024-25 figure — the most recent completed placement cycle at the time of writing, not a separate or higher estimate.
Top Recruiters & Industry Connections
Top Recruiters at SRM: Amazon, Microsoft, Oracle, Samsung R&D, Zoho, Freshworks, Infosys, Wipro, TCS, Capgemini, Cognizant, Accenture, HCL, IBM, Goldman Sachs, JP Morgan, DE Shaw (internships), Hyundai Motor, Hyundai Mobis, Tata Motors, and hundreds of IT, automotive, and semiconductor companies.
SRM Chennai Cutoff 2021-2025 — SRMJEEE & JEE Main Closing Ranks (Year-Wise)
Why two cutoff figures appear for the same branch: an early-phase (Phase 1) closing rank and the full SRMJEEE-cycle closing rank are two different numbers, not two estimates of one number. CSE General seats can close as tight as rank 1,000-3,000 within Phase 1 alone; across the full cycle (all phases, all counselling rounds), the same CSE branch at KTR closes within roughly the top 12,000 — both are cited on this page, and neither replaces the other.
📌 In one line: SRMJEEE/JEE closing trends by year — full-cycle figures; phases differ; verify the current phase on srmist.edu.in.
| Branch | SRMJEEE 2021 | SRMJEEE 2022 | SRMJEEE 2023 | SRMJEEE 2024 | Est. 2025 |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| CSE (Kattankulathur) | Top 15,000 | Top 14,000 | Top 13,000 | Top 12,000 | Top 12,000 |
| CSE (AI & ML) | Top 20,000 | Top 18,000 | Top 17,000 | Top 16,000 | Top 15,000 |
| ECE (Kattankulathur) | Top 30,000 | Top 28,000 | Top 25,000 | Top 23,000 | Top 22,000 |
| Mechanical Engineering | Top 50,000 | Top 48,000 | Top 45,000 | Top 43,000 | Top 40,000 |
SRMJEEE 2026 runs in phases through July 2026; the final SRM KTR cutoff 2026 (branch-wise closing ranks) is confirmed only after the last phase's counselling closes, so treat the 2021-2025 trends on this page as the best available guide until then. SRMJEEE is conducted online in multiple slots. JEE Main percentile above 75-80 typically qualifies for SRM CSE on merit. Students with lower JEE scores can access SRM through management quota. SRM also accepts SAT scores for international students. The year-anchored sections below break out the same SRMJEEE closing-rank data above one year at a time so you can compare SRM Chennai cutoff trends across 2021-2025. Rank-fit check: a SRMJEEE rank around 12,000 is borderline for CSE Core at KTR (closed ~top 12,000 in 2024 and 2025), while a rank of 15,000–17,000 usually misses CSE Core but can still fetch CSE (AI & ML) in some phases, ECE at KTR (~top 22,000) or Mechanical (~top 40,000) — so 17,000 is a workable SRMJEEE rank if you stay flexible on branch, and a better rank also means a bigger scholarship slab, which is how SRMJEEE rank vs fees plays out.
SRM Chennai Cutoff 2025 (estimated SRMJEEE closing ranks)
Estimated full-cycle SRMJEEE 2025 closing ranks for SRM Kattankulathur (KTR): CSE (Kattankulathur) Top 12,000, CSE (AI & ML) Top 15,000, ECE (Kattankulathur) Top 22,000, Mechanical Engineering Top 40,000. Within Phase 1 alone, CSE General seats can close as early as rank 1,000-3,000; Tier-1 (rank 1-500) qualifies for a full scholarship. ↑ Back to year nav

8. SAP (Semester Abroad Program)
This is SRM's biggest USP. SRM has partnerships with 200+ universities worldwide (like MIT, UC Berkeley, and NUS Singapore).
- Students can spend one semester at a foreign university.
- This exposure is invaluable for students planning to move abroad for their Masters.
9. Campus Life: The Kattankulathur Lifestyle
- Milan & Aaruush: Milan is the cultural fest and Aaruush is the national-level tech fest. They are legendary in South India.
- Infrastructure: The campus has its own hospital (SRM Medical College), a dental college, and multiple food courts serving everything from Chettinad to Continental.
- Connectivity: Located on the outskirts of Chennai, it is very well-connected by the Chennai Suburban Railway (Potheri Station), which is right outside the university gate.
10. SRM KTR vs. Other SRM Campuses
At Find Ur College, we often advise students on campus selection:
- KTR: Best for Placements, Infrastructure, and Brand Value.
- Ramapuram/Vadapalani: Good for students who want to stay inside Chennai city.
- SRM Ghaziabad (NCR): Best for North Indian students who cannot travel to Chennai.
- SRM AP (Amaravati): A new-age research campus with high-end faculty.

Expert Tips for SRM Aspirants
SRM has multiple campuses (Kattankulathur, Ramapuram, Vadapalani, Delhi-NCR). The original Kattankulathur campus has significantly better infrastructure, faculty quality, and placement outcomes than the others. Always specify Kattankulathur campus when applying to SRM.
SRM's Ramanujan Scholarship provides full tuition fee waiver for students with JEE Main AIR below 5,000. This is an exceptional value — you get a NIRF top-15 college education at zero tuition cost. Apply proactively during SRM counselling to claim this scholarship before it is filled.
SRM's 200+ international university partnerships are among the best in Indian private engineering education. Apply for exchange programs at top Korean, German, and Australian universities from third year — these exchanges significantly strengthen graduate school applications and global employer profiles.
Samsung R&D and Freshworks (Chennai's unicorn startup) conduct early talent identification programs at SRM from second and third year. Students who engage with these programs early are shortlisted preferentially during final placement drives. Register for these programs as soon as they are announced.
SRM's scale (20,000+ students) means students who wait passively get lost. But for proactive students, SRM's sheer size means more clubs, more companies, more competitions, and more opportunities. Take initiative in clubs, research labs, and placement preparation from day one to maximize your SRM advantage.
SRM's Global Vision and Research Excellence
SRM Institute of Science and Technology has explicitly positioned itself as a globally competitive research university. The institution has invested heavily in research infrastructure, faculty from premier global institutions, and international collaborations with universities in the US, UK, South Korea, and Australia.
