    By NIRF in 2018 : 92
    By NIRF in 2017 : 101-150

The main reason behind this poor ranking is people don't prefer it just because NIT Agartala comes in North East region.May be no one wants to come here because it is situated very far from the main lands and IT hubs of India. Ranking of a college depends on lot of factors like campus facilities,infrastructure,management and at last faculties. So ,don’t get deluded with RANK....Second thing is the infrastructure, So the infrastructure is also not good ,There is lack of department building, labs, library etc. There is only some department have there own separate building not all. Most of the departments don't have proper labs and equipments, technical library etc.There is another chief concern i.e Connectivity or transportation problem.SO NIT Agartala in itself is not a problem for it's poor ranking but the other developmental factors which have dragged the whole NE region way behind the mainland India.
