VIIT Pune Cut Off 2026 — Vishwakarma Institute of Information Technology MHT-CET Percentile

VIIT is the Vishwakarma Institute of Information Technology at Kondhwa. It is not VIT Pune, which is the Vishwakarma Institute of Technology at Bibwewadi, and the two are confused so routinely that students regularly plan against the wrong cutoff table. Both sit under the same Bansilal Ramnath Agarwal Charitable Trust, both admit through MHT-CET CAP, and both use similar initials — but they are separate colleges with separate seat matrices and separate closing percentiles. As a rule VIT Pune closes higher than VIIT. VIT Pune is the older institution, holds government-aided status and closes at a percentile that puts it just below COEP and PICT in the Pune order. VIIT closes below it, which for many candidates makes it the realistic option in the same trust rather than a second-best version of the same college. Its Computer Engineering and IT branches are the most contested, following the pattern across every Pune engineering college. Because VIIT admits through CAP, its cutoff is decided by round mechanics and applicant preferences rather than by the college. Use the trend to set a target percentile, then check the State CET Cell round-wise PDFs for the official closing figure for your branch, category and round. Nothing on this page is a substitute for those.

⚡ Quick Answer

VIIT Kondhwa closes below VIT Pune Bibwewadi — they are two separate colleges under the same trust, with separate CAP seat matrices and separate cutoffs. Confirm which one a percentile table refers to before using it.

The first two are siblings under one trust and the third is entirely unrelated. Percentile tables, fee structures and placement reports exist separately for all three, and mixing them up is the single most common error in this part of the Pune admissions landscape.

Where VIIT Sits in the Pune Order

VIIT sits below VIT Pune in this order. Use the table to understand the shape of the Pune market rather than as a precise target — every figure in it is indicative and the official numbers come from the State CET Cell round-wise release.

Branch Pattern at VIIT

  • •Computer Engineering closes highest, as at every Pune engineering college.
  • •Information Technology follows closely behind.
  • •Electronics and Telecommunication sits in the middle band.
  • •Mechanical, Civil and Electrical close lowest, sometimes by several percentile points.
  • •A percentile that misses CS at VIIT can comfortably secure a core branch there, or CS at a college further down the order — worth mapping before you finalise your CAP preference list.

Building a CAP Preference List That Works

  1. 1.List every acceptable college-and-branch combination, not just colleges.
  2. 2.Order them by genuine preference, not by expected cutoff — CAP allocates to your highest achievable preference, so there is no advantage in ranking strategically.
  3. 3.Include options above your expected percentile: rounds sometimes close lower than anticipated.
  4. 4.Include realistic options below it so that a weak round does not leave you unallotted.
  5. 5.Stay in the process through the later rounds rather than withdrawing after Round 1, since closing percentiles typically ease as seats are released.

Where to Confirm

  • •State CET Cell round-wise cutoff PDFs, filtered by college code, branch and category — the authoritative source.
  • •The VIIT official website for admission notices and branch information.
  • •Confirm the college code carefully during CAP option filling, since VIIT and VIT Pune sit adjacent in most listings.
