Two colleges with similar totals can be very different places to study, so it is worth reading across the row rather than only looking at the rank. TLR RPC GO OI PERCEPTION College 30% 30% 20% 10% 10% Chandigarh University 68.30 47.19 69.26 75.76 15.06 Lovely Professional University 64.40 41.41 65.30 63.97 26.10 Chitkara University 51.87 31.25 72.30 56.45 10.62 TLR Teaching, Learning & Resources RPC Research and Professional Practice GO Graduation Outcomes OI Outreach and Inclusivity PERCEPTION Perception Green marks a score of 70 or above; red marks below 35. Perception is scored from a survey of academics, employers and the public, so newer and regional institutions often score low there even when their teaching and outcomes are strong — read a low Perception number with that in mind rather than as a verdict on the campus. How to use this list • Entrance exams. NATA and JEE Main Paper 2 are the usual routes to B.Arch. • A rank is not a ranking of your experience. NIRF measures the institution as a whole, not the individual specialisation. An institution ranked lower overall may still be the stronger choice for the one you want. • Participation is voluntary. A good college missing from this list may simply not have submitted data. Absence is not evidence of poor quality. • Bands hide detail. Inside 101–150 or 201–300 the colleges are listed alphabetically, so position in that list carries no meaning at all. • Check the year. These are the India Rankings 2025 figures, released September 2025. The 2026 edition is expected later in 2026 and will supersede them. Source: NIRF · Visit for all rankings Page 1 of 2
