Ktvr Knowledge Park for Engineering and Tech | Cut-Off Details | Vidyavision

KTVR Knowledge Park for Engineering and Technology (KTVR-KPET), established in 2008 in Coimbatore, is a self-financing technical institution affiliated with Anna University. Located in a 20-acre serene campus in Jotsoma, it is known for providing industry-aligned engineering education with a strong focus on Information Technology and Core Engineering branches.

Admission to KTVR-KPET is governed by the Tamil Nadu Engineering Admissions (TNEA) process, which is purely merit-based and does not require a separate entrance exam.

Admission Criteria (2026 Academic Cycle)

Candidates seeking admission to the B.E./B.Tech programs must meet the following eligibility standards set by the Directorate of Technical Education (DoTE), Tamil Nadu:

• Educational Qualification: A pass in the 10+2 (Higher Secondary) examination or its equivalent with Physics, Chemistry, and Mathematics (PCM).

• Minimum Percentage: General category candidates must have an average of 45% in PCM, while reserved category candidates (BC/BCM/MBC/DNC/SC/ST) require a minimum of 40%.

• Selection Process: Admission is strictly through TNEA Counseling. The merit list is prepared based on the normalized marks obtained in the Class 12 board examinations (Physics + Chemistry + Mathematics = 200 marks).

Previous Year Cut-Off Trends (TNEA Ranks)

The cut-off ranks at KTVR-KPET vary based on the department's demand. Computer Science (CSE) and Information Technology (IT) typically close much earlier than core branches like Civil or Mechanical Engineering.

Category-Wise Cut-Off Analysis

KTVR-KPET follows the reservation policy of the Government of Tamil Nadu. Reserved category ranks are typically much higher (more relaxed) than the Open Competition (OC) ranks.

• Open Competition (OC): Competition is highest, with ranks usually staying within the 1.2 Lakh bracket for popular branches.

• Backward Class (BC/BCM): Candidates often secure seats with ranks between 1.1 Lakh and 1.4 Lakh.

• MBC/DNC: Ranks for these categories often extend to 1.5 Lakh for core engineering seats.

• SC/ST: Significant relaxation is provided, with seats occasionally available up to the final rounds of counseling (2 Lakh+ ranks).

Key Information for 2026 Applicants

• Rank Sensitivity: Due to the increasing shift toward IT-related fields, the cut-off for CSE and IT at KTVR has seen a "tightening" trend (ranks getting lower/more competitive) over the last two years.

• Fee Structure: As a self-financing college, the annual tuition fee is approximately INR 40,000 to INR 50,000 for government-allotted seats via TNEA. Management quota fees may vary.

• Placement Overview: The college has a dedicated placement cell with a track record of students being placed in top MNCs such as TCS, Infosys, Tech Mahindra, and Cognizant. The average package typically ranges between INR 3.2 LPA and INR 4.5 LPA.

• Infrastructure: The campus provides specialized departmental laboratories, an excellent IT infrastructure, and separate hostel facilities for men and women.

For the 2026 session, the TNEA registration process is expected to begin in May 2026, shortly after the release of the Tamil Nadu 12th Board (HSC) results. Candidates are advised to keep their community certificates and nativity proofs ready for the online verification process.
