The pre-placement offer for a quantitative trading role in Hong Kong marks the highest package of the IIT placement season so far.

A computer science and engineering student from IIT Madras received a ₹4.3 crore pre-placement offer from global trading firm Jane Street.
The offer includes base salary, fixed bonus, and relocation benefits for a quantitative trading position in Hong Kong.
The student had previously interned with Jane Street, which led to the pre-placement offer.
