With fewer firms visiting campuses for placement, the Indian Institutes of Technology (IITs) have lifted the ban on 30 Companies.
While the decision was taken during the All-India Placement Committee (AIPC) meeting of IITs held in Kanpur recently, the firms were restricted from participating in the placement process after they deferred joining dates.
"Many students, interested in setting up their own business, want to work in start-ups and understand how they function. We do not want them to lose out on opportunities," Kaustubha Mohanty, AIPC convenor, informed media.

Zomato, one of the leading restaurant search firm, was banned by IITs.
“The IITs have a long history of being home to great engineering talent, and we’re grateful that the hiring ban has been withdrawn. We look forward to a long and fruitful association with the IITs,” a Zomato spokesperson said in a statement.
Ban on Crayon Data India Pvt Ltd was lifted last year.
The banned firms also incl-uded healthcare start-up Portea and Indus Insight.
