Dear Mainak,
I want to answer your question in brief.
There are 2 options available if you want to stay in a hostel at Chandigarh University.
Non-AC rooms.
AC rooms.
Now, coming to the fee of the hostel, I being a 2018 pass out pays an amount of Rs70K per annum for Non-AC room.
This includes room rent, mess fee and water bills. Electricity charges are extra depending on the usage.
Now, if you are going to take admission in the upcoming session, your hostel fee will be around 80K as there's a hike of 5K every year. Now, coming to the food they offer. If you are a vegetarian you'll love the food they give. Paneer twice a week and there's change in everyday food. If you love Non-Veg., you'll get chicken every Wednesday and Egg Curry every Sunday.
A complimentary sweet dish which includes Rasgulla, Gulab Jamun and few more things which I never tasted.
Now, you'll have two options for hostel.
On-campus.
Off-campus.
Try to get into On-campus hostel only then it's possible to wake up at 9:15 AM and reach the class by 9:30 AM.

Dear Divyanshu,
Well, telling dramatically, when it comes to infrastructure and facility, it is average we can't compare it with LPU, SRM or any other big university but when it comes to a brand name, CU lack's at large extent. Well, when we say of placements then it gives you most happiness, the placements at CGC are quite good for software as many branded companies visit the campus like Google, Amazon, Flipkart, Dell, IBM, etc. And also major recruiting companies like Infosys, Cognizant, etc. CU conducts various competitive fest and workshops. Also, CU provides international internships with various foreign universities of USA, Canada, etc. CU also has conducted TPP programme which will start towards the 2nd year, teaching the aptitude, C, C+ and various communication classes for preparing the students for GD and Technical Interviews for the placements. The overall college is good but also attendance is the main issue in this university, a minimum of 75% is compulsory to give the examination, even if you are getting 74.4% you will not be able to give your final exams.

Dear Anisha,
Both the universities are better in their own ways.
Both have their pros and cons.
Chandigarh University:
Some good things about this university:
1. Excellent infrastructure and most important it is growing day by day.
2. Good and supportive faculty.
3. Well-equipped labs.
4. Hostel facility is very good, you don't have to worry about anything except food a little.
5. Placement oriented guidance.
6. Easy reach to the higher authority of the university.
7. No ragging.
I have never seen a single ragging case in my first year, seniors are very supportive.
8. Students from all over the India even foreign country study here.
Here are the few cons, not bad but need improvement:
1. Open playground for cricket and football is not in a very good condition as most of the time it is equipped for some events (New ground is almost constructed so no longer an issue with that).
2. Sometimes focus too much on assignments and lab file work instead of practical knowledge. Although written work is also important, it can be improved.
Apart from this no other issue with the university, CU is really good and a place where you want to spend few years of life and remember those years as best years of your life.
The university is approved by UGC, AICTE and other necessary councils then it comes to Banasthali Vidyapeeth.
You can get take part in as many activities you want and believe me, they do have a lot to offer including aviation and horse riding. Basically, once you start exploring, you'll have lot in your plate. But the biggest setback would be, you not getting enough exposure to the real world. They sort of provide everything to you inside the campus and do not let you go out. So, believe me, if you have lived in a metropolitan like Delhi since childhood like I have, you'll have a very hard time adjusting to the environment and people once you get comfortable with your surroundings, it'll be a fun experience.
Thanks and I hope it may help.
