Hostel at NIT Srinagar 2026

NIT Srinagar runs an extensive on-campus hostel system on its 320-acre Hazratbal campus. 12+ hostels house students by gender and academic year. First-year B.Tech students typically get triple-occupancy rooms with double rooms from the second year and single rooms from the third year by seniority. Annual hostel and mess fees for 2025-26 are heavily subsidised — typically ₹35,000-55,000 per academic year inclusive of mess. Mess service includes vegetarian (with strong Kashmiri cuisine including Wazwan), non-vegetarian and Jain options across hostels with student-elected mess secretaries. Wi-Fi, hot-water geysers, gymnasium access, study lounges and CCTV are standard. The Srinagar winter is very cold (-2 to 5°C December-February) with snow possible at higher elevations. Warmer bedding and woolen clothing essential.
