GOOGLE to IIT'ens

Google had recently offered IIT'ens freshers with a pre-placement package of Rs73Lakhs per annum. Though this was the start of the Biggies like Google, IIT placements had a phynominal growth of up to 15% this year. Despite the slow enonomy, hearing about this makes me feel awesome.

IIT has been the most prestigious and respectable Technology Institutions of India and I am sure they would be. Best of luck to all the fresh pass-outs in their endeavors.
