Hello Risheik,
Yes, with this rank of 48,000, you can get a seat for mechanical engineering at SRM university (NCR campus). You can also get all the other top courses at the NCR campus with this rank. So, try it in the counselling.

With your rank, getting into an NLU seems tough, but never lose hope. Keep a track of vacancies, which would come up after the phases of counselling is over.
SRM, according to me is preferable, because of its quality infrastructure, faculty and placements.

Please do not drop, that's a suggestion. Join any educational programme and prepare simultaneously. If you are really patient, then wait for the vacancies as offered by NLUs, you might easily get through one of the bottom NLUs.

SRM University, Chennai is better than the other one.

It is an average college. Moreover, for placement, it doesn't matter because no matter which campus, you have to come to the KTR campus only. I guess, exposure will be a lot less because KTR campus is the hub of all activities associated with SRM. Infrastructure and environment is average but not sure about the faculty so can't say anything about that.

Yes, you can get NCR campus of SRM University with a rank of 48000. Download the counselling call letter from www.srmuniv.ac.in.

NCR-Delhi is the best among both the campuses of SRM.
