Table 8 and Fig. 7: Faculty Student Ratio in Applicant Engineering Institutions

Table 9 and Fig. 8 provides data on Median Financial Resource Utilization (FRU) per student in various categories and
subject domains. The FRU is maximum (Rs. 90,713) in case of Management that has registered an increase of 5.00%
over the FRU of Rs. 86,396 in 2022 although it has declined from FRU of Rs. 96,592 in 2021. Presumably, decreased in
FRU from 2021 could possibly be because of corona pandemic when classes were being held virtually and institutes
might have saved on infrastructure and its maintenance, etc. It may be noted that the data considered for India
Rankings 2023 is for Academic Year 2020 to 2022.

7.2 Research and Professional Practice

As mentioned earlier, NIRF has used third party sources to extract information on scholarly output (including research
publications, citations, HCP and patents) by applicant institutions. For the brief analysis presented here, we have
restricted use of data from only one source, i.e., Web of Science, in the interest of simplicity. Data quoted here refer to
the three-year period, i.e. 2019 to 2021 considered for ranking of HEIs for India Rankings 2023.
