Average Salary being 2.6LPA highest being 5.5LPA and 85% of batch gets placed.

Alumni Network is very Huge as the college itself is of 38Year Old and there is Alumni Association which gets connected with each other and college conducts Alumni Meet Programme(DARPAN) every year.

As its Government College Hostel Facility is available and Fees varies by Caste and generally its less than 6000k per year.

PG facility are there which cost 5k per month , other colleges ask for management cost where as our college is government.

Food in College is average while admitting we have to pay Management Association Fees which includes Breakfast, Lunch, and Tea, Cost of weekly Industrial Visits, Book, Uniform and many other Miscellaneous Expenses.

Infrastructure wise College is not so Good i would rate 3/10 for that.

Entrance exam: You have to give  PGCET and get rank to get admission , there is no Management Quota for getting admission in KIMS so no other way of getting way except PGCET

The Fees structure is very Basic as it is a Government College for GM students its around 33k and for OBC its around 10k.

Over all Experience was very good at KIMS but it involved infrastructure problems.
