Companies that offered more than a crore rupees to grads from IITs this year

Sony Corporation has also made job offers of above Rs 1 crore to candidates from IIT Bombay and IIT Kharagpur.

Optiver has made seven offers at IIT Bombay of Rs 1.4 crore each. “We have been very impressed with the candidates coming from India; in fact, some of our most talented team members are IIT Bombay alumni,” the company said in an email response. “This year, Optiver made employment offers of 157,000 euros per annum to seven IIT Bombay graduates and hope to expand our search for talent in India further in the future.”

According to various campus placement cells that ET spoke to, big salaries were offered by the likes of B2B SaaS startup Ally.io with around $140,000 (Rs 1.03 crore) for an international role.

Still, as the IITs went completely online with their final placements for the first time ever, the number of international offers saw a drop. Cohesity, as first reported by ET, is offering the highest annual package of $200,000 (Rs 1.48 crore) for a US role.
