Vidyalankar Institute of Technology, Wadala, Mumbai Admission 2026: Cutoff, Fees & Placements

Vidyalankar Institute of Technology publishes first-year B.Tech fees as an institute PDF. The figures below are transcribed from that PDF, not from aggregators. Category rows marked with scholarship or Social Welfare eligibility still require the candidate to complete the documents named on the sheet; otherwise Open fees apply.

AY2026-27 — First Year B.Tech (CAP categories)

Sheet notes that matter. (*) Special categories on the fee sheet include CAP-OBC/EBC/EWS/SEBC for female/orphan with family income under ₹8 lakh, any orphan, or CAP-TFWS. (#) Subject to Social Welfare eligibility and documents; otherwise Open fees apply. Budget the written demand for the year and route you are allotted.

For how Maharashtra CAP seats are filled before you ever see a fee demand, read the MHT-CET counselling overview — route and pool decide which row of this table applies.

Hostel is a separate decision from the CAP seat. For Vidyalankar Wadala, the official materials checked for this page did not expose a published rupee tariff for room rent, mess or deposit. Under this site’s sourcing rules that absence is left blank rather than filled from an aggregator.

Practical rule for choice filling: do not assume a hostel bed follows an allotment. Confirm availability and the written demand with the institute after you know the route, and keep an off-campus rent buffer for Wadala / central Mumbai until that confirmation exists. Compare how PICT Pune publishes capacity and charges side by side — that is the standard this page will match once Vidyalankar’s own tariff is on record.

Read this as an estimate. The AY2026-27 fee PDF prints first-year heads. It does not state that the same total applies for every subsequent year. We will not silently multiply ₹2,03,000 × 4 and present it as the college’s figure.

If you are funding part of this with a loan, run the principal you actually expect to borrow through the college fee EMI calculator — it only computes on numbers you enter. Pair the fee line with a realistic living cost once hostel charges are confirmed.

Maharashtra rows below are Stage-I first Open-column closing merit numbers with the MHT-CET percentile in brackets. All-India rows use All-India merit numbers with the JEE Main score in brackets. Every figure is for institute 03139 (printed 3139 in 2023) on Vidyalankar Wadala pages only — not Vishwakarma / VIT Pune.

State-Level Open (GOPENS) — CAP Round I 2026, 2025 and 2024

All-India seats (JEE Main) — CAP Round I 2026, 2025, 2024 and 2023

Home University Open (GOPENH) — CAP Round I 2023 (Maharashtra)

In 2023 the Maharashtra CAP list printed Vidyalankar rows with Home University Open allotment for these programmes. The first Open column is therefore GOPENH. Do not drop those merit numbers into the GOPENS series without the pool label.

How to use the series. Computer Engineering stayed in a mid-to-high-97 MHT-CET percentile band on State-Level Open from 2024 through 2026. Bio Medical stayed materially more reachable. For JEE All-India seats, use only the AI table — a 94 JEE score is not a 94 MHT-CET percentile. Build preference order from the pool you are actually eligible for, not from a single “VIT cutoff” forward — and never confuse this Wadala institute with VIT Pune.

Vidyalankar’s public placement materials can show recruiter logos and headline “highest salary package offered” style figures. Those claims are not a substitute for a dated batch average, median or percentage-placed table with a defined denominator. For this page we did not verify such a summary table on the official sources retained under scratch/sourcing/vit-mumbai/, so average and median stay blank rather than estimated.

What this means for a loan decision. A page that invents a “median around ₹X LPA” without an institute table is fabricating. Ask the Training and Placement Cell in writing for branch-wise placed-versus-eligible counts and the median for the latest completed batch before you size EMI against an outcome number. For institutes that do publish clearer summary sheets, see VIT Pune (a different college) and PICT Pune — those pages cite only what each institute’s own documents support.

Until Vidyalankar or the CET Cell publishes a 2026-27 matrix we have verified, the table below is the last complete official split. Use it for choice codes and approximate scale; confirm the live option-form codes before locking preferences.

Institute-level seats (132 on this matrix) are not CAP Round I allotments. They follow the institute’s published vacancy / ACAP process after CAP. Always match institute code 03139 and the full programme choice code — selecting the right college with the wrong branch code changes the preference.

Most avoidable seat losses happen after the merit is already good enough. The freeze / float / forfeiture rules are set by the Maharashtra State CET Cell Information Brochure for the admission cycle, not by Vidyalankar. They apply to institute 03139 the same way they apply to PICT, DY Patil Akurdi or VIT Pune.

Putting Computer Engineering at preference 1 is a commitment, not a wishlist item. If that is genuinely where you will enrol, it is correct. If you still want to compare a later float into another institute, do not place Vidyalankar CE first.

Document failures cost seats after allotment. Keep originals and photocopies ready before Round I. Category, EWS, TFWS and income certificates must match the financial year printed on the fee PDF and the brochure for the cycle you are in.

Candidates weighing Maharashtra private autonomous computing seats often put Vidyalankar next to PICT Pune and DY Patil Akurdi. Fee and placement comparisons only help when each figure has been verified on that institute’s own page. Cutoffs can be compared cleanly because all three appear on the same CET Cell CAP Round I list. VIT Pune is a different college — Vishwakarma in Bibwewadi — and is linked only so you do not mix the two “VIT” brands.

What the merit gap means. PICT Computer Engineering closed about 8,000 merit places tighter than Vidyalankar Computer Engineering on the same 2026 Round I Open list (929 vs 9028). DY Patil Akurdi CE (8066) sat between them on merit number — still tighter than Vidyalankar on that round. Location is a separate axis: Mumbai commuting and living cost are not in the fee PDF. Do not treat “VIT” as one brand — open VIT Pune only when you mean Vishwakarma.

Also keep the engineering admission hub open while you build fallbacks below Vidyalankar — a list that only contains one Mumbai private college has no diversification when that institute’s cutoffs firm up.
