The purpose of NIRF rankings is to evaluate and transparently rank higher education institutions in India based on a common methodology. Launched by the Ministry of Education in 2015, the rankings serve multiple stakeholders, including students, colleges, and policymakers.

Significant changes have been made to the evaluation methodology for the 2025 rankings. A new ranking category focused on Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) has been introduced to assess institutions' commitment to sustainability. Institutions will now face negative scoring for retracted research papers under the "Research and Professional Practices" parameter. Additionally, three new institutional categories have been added: Open Universities, Skill Universities, and State-Funded Public Universities. Candidates can access the full rankings on the official NIRF website, nirfindia.org, after they are released by clicking on the "India Rankings 2025" link and selecting the desired category.
