Prototype. University list and classification from AISHE (aishe.gov.in), rankings from NIRF 2025 (nirfindia.org), accreditation from NAAC's list of institutions holding valid accreditation as on 14 August 2025 (naac.gov.in). Fees, placements, cutoffs and ratings are indicative seed data and should be verified before launch. Sponsored placements are always labelled and never affect rankings or the ShikshaSphere Score.

Every institution on AISHE's register — what it is, who runs it, which university it answers to, and its NAAC grade where it has one.

What this list covers. All 68,747 institutions on AISHE's register — 51,831 colleges that sit under a university and 16,916 standalone institutions (polytechnics, nursing, teacher training, paramedical and the rest). Of these, 7,973 have been assessed by NAAC — so a college with no grade shown is one NAAC has not assessed, not one we are missing a grade for.
