Introduction
National Institutional Ranking Framework released its 3rd edition of Indian University Rankings. The higher education world in India and its stakeholders in various capacities expected eminent Institutions of the country like IIMs and IITs continue to be on top of these rankings. On a contrary, it was quite surprising to see few private institutions are ranked even above some IITs and NITs like Vellore Institute of Technology, Birla Institute of Technology and Science, Pilani, College of Engineering, Pune and much more which were missing in 2017 were able to secure positions in best 10.
