The methodology draws from the overall recommendations broad understanding arrived at by a Core Committee set up by MHRD, to identify the broad parameters for ranking various Universities and Institutions. The parameters broadly cover "Teaching, Learning and Resources," "Research and Professional Practices," "Graduation Outcomes," "Outreach and Inclusivity," and "Perception". India Rankings - 2016 based on this framework were released on 4th April 2016. In the year 2017, the main ranking parameters remain the same. However, there are a few significant changes in a few sub-parameters. Every large Institution had been given a common overall rank as well as a discipline specific rank as applicable.
