How this list is built

An institution is listed here when the Council of Architecture or AICTE approves it for architecture, or its registered name states architecture, or when AICTE 2025-26 approves it for planning. The registers do not list every course, so confirm the exact course with the institution.
A listing in the AISHE directory of the Ministry of Education is not a recognition. Each row names the regulator lists it appears in, so check the approval for your course with that regulator.
Government or private is the management a register states. Where no register states it, the row says so.
Order: verified Disha profiles first, then institutions ranked in NIRF 2025 (best rank in any category), then the rest, those named by more official registers first, then A to Z. This is not a quality ranking.
