which engineering college computer science is best for me with 83 percentile 254808 rank and Maharashtra domicile

Hi,

With 83 percentile (~2.3–2.6 lakh rank) and Maharashtra domicile, you can get CSE, but mostly in mid-tier government/state colleges or good private colleges—not top NITs/IIITs.

Government / Semi-Government (via CAP)

• Government College of Engineering Aurangabad

• Government College of Engineering Amravati

• SGGS Institute of Engineering and Technology

In these, CSE is difficult, but IT / ECE possible (CSE may come in later rounds).

Top Private Colleges (Best chance for CSE)

• Pimpri Chinchwad College of Engineering

• MIT World Peace University

These colleges offer CSE around 80–90 percentile range.

Best Strategy

• Fill CAP counselling (Maharashtra) seriously

• Prefer CSE / IT / AI / Data Science branches

• Keep private colleges as main target
