Start with the fee you can commit to. Across Punjab the published first-year fee runs from ₹2,000 to ₹25.3 L, so the shortlist changes completely depending on the band you pick.
Government or private. 26 of these are government-run and 243 are private. Government colleges are usually cheaper and admit on entrance rank; private colleges are more likely to have their own admission route.
Check the ranking applies to your course. 23 of these hold an NIRF rank, but NIRF is scored per category — a rank in one category says nothing about another.
Then read the placement tab, not the headline package. The highest package is one student; the percentage placed and the recruiters listed tell you far more.
