In previous placement seasons, major recruiters like Palo Alto Networks (Rs 54.75 LPA), Nutanix (Rs 53 LPA), and Microsoft (Rs 52.20 LPA) offered some of the highest packages.
LPU’s success extends beyond individual high-value placements; several students have secured multiple offers, with one Electronics and Communication Engineering student, Adireddy Vasu, receiving an impressive seven job offers.
The university continues to attract top-tier recruiters such as Accenture, Capgemini, and TCS, with Capgemini alone hiring 736 students for Analyst and Senior Analyst roles.
