The ranking used by this framework is based on some important parameters like research, resources, and stakeholder perception.

As per the recommendation of the core committee of NIRF, the institutions were categorized into 2 sub-categories: Category A and Category B. Category A covers all the national institutions that are set up by state universities, acts of parliament, private universities, deemed-to-be universities, and other autonomous institutions. On the other hand, Category B has all the institutions that are affiliated with other universities and do not hold an "autonomous" designation.

NIRF Rankings: Parameters & Their Weightage

The NIRF ranking in different categories is based on a set of parameters decided by the core committee of the ranking framework. A minimum weight has been assigned to each parameter that must be secured by universities or institutions to hold a place in this ranking system. Institutions are evaluated out of a total score of 100 assigned to each parameter.

Teaching, learning, and resources (TLR): This parameter is concerned with the student strengths, faculty-student ratio, qualifications & experiences of faculty members, and availability of financial resources & utilization.Research, professional practice, and collaborative performance (RPC): This parameter involves the combined metric for publications & their quality.

Graduation outcome (GO): This parameter is more focused on the learning outcomes & thus associated with the data of university examinations, placement and higher studies, & salary packages:

  • Outreach and inclusivity (Ol): This one is connected with the accessibility of education to different categories of students, like students from other states/countries, economically and socially challenged students, women, & physically challenged students.
  • Perception (PR): In this parameter, the perceptions of peers, employers, & other academicians are considered.

Among the 11 categories of NIRF, parameters & their weights for universities, engineering, management, law, medical, pharmacy, architecture, research, and dental categories are tabulated below:
