IITs Suspend Campus Recruitment by 22 Companies for Two Years Over Unhonoured Offers
The Indian Institutes of Technology (IITs) have decided to suspend cooperation with 22 companies for campus recruitment over the next two years due to these firms failing to honor job offers made to students graduating in 2026. The All IITs Placement Committee (AIPC) will notify the companies by September 30, describing the action as 'non-cooperation' rather than blacklisting. Over 150 offers across 23 IITs were withdrawn, with companies like Oracle reportedly among those affected. The move aims to protect students and maintain the credibility of the IIT placement process.
