However, it’s not fair to compare a very old and reputable institution with a completely new one.
But, since someone has asked this question, I’m gonna compare the IIT (ISM) and IITP quickly in this post.
Actually, this is not really a comparison but a simple list of course offerings, departments, rankings etc. between these two IITs.
Earlier, I have also compared IIT Dhanbad vs IIT Bhubaneswar which you can take a look at.
