This page covers published NIRF entries, not every good institution in Maharashtra offering programmes in this category. An institution's absence does not mean it is a poor choice. Ranks are national Overall ranks, not positions within Maharashtra.
Maharashtra Overall ranking history
Explore Maharashtra institutions in the published NIRF Overall lists by year. Every rank below is a national category rank, not a position within Maharashtra. A lower rank number is better.
Comparisons use the preceding available Overall edition and the state recorded in each year's list. Newly listed means absent from the previous Maharashtra list, not necessarily a first NIRF appearance. Absence does not establish why an institution is missing, and movement alone does not explain changes in quality.
