The same data, asked for three times
NAAC, NBA and NIRF ask for much of the same information — faculty profiles, student strength, research output, placements, infrastructure, finances. Around 68% of it overlaps. Most institutions still collect it three times, in three sets of spreadsheets, and end up with three different numbers for the same fact.
Three frameworks, three datasets
- The same faculty list re-entered for the SSR, the SAR and NIRF
- Numbers that disagree across submissions — exactly what DVV and cross-validation catch
- Each cycle rebuilt from scratch in the final weeks
One record, mapped to every framework
- Each fact entered once, with its evidence attached
- The same number appears in every document that needs it
- Each cycle starts from last year’s record, not a blank sheet
What Master Data Map produces
Three documents from one record — plus the outcome data NBA needs underneath them, and your Times Higher Education (THE) and QS World University Rankings data from the same record.

Inside Master Data Map
The same record, seen through each framework. Shown with demo data.
Master Data Map for every stream
Engineering, medical, dental, pharmacy, nursing, law, management and beyond — every college answers to NAAC, most are ranked by NIRF, many are accredited by NBA, and every one reports to its own regulator. They all ask for the same faculty, student and infrastructure data. Master Data Map keeps it on one institutional record for your stream.

How it works
Enter it once
Faculty, students, programmes, research, infrastructure and outcomes go into one institutional record — imported from your ERP or spreadsheets, with evidence attached.
Map it to every framework
Master Data Map knows which NAAC metric, NBA criterion and NIRF parameter each fact feeds, and flags where the same fact would be reported differently.
Generate the document
Produce the SSR, AQAR, SAR or NIRF data from the record when you need it — and start next cycle from where this one ended.
Master Data Map — one faculty record feeding NAAC 2.4.1, NBA C5, NIRF TLR-FRQ and AISHE at once. Shown with demo data.

Frequently asked questions
What is Master Data Map?
Master Data Map (MDM) is Edhitch’s accreditation and ranking data platform. An institution keeps one record of its data — faculty, students, programmes, research, infrastructure, outcomes — and Master Data Map maps it to NAAC, NBA and NIRF requirements to produce the NAAC SSR and AQAR, the NBA SAR, the NIRF data submission, and data for the Times Higher Education (THE) and QS World University Rankings.
Which frameworks does Master Data Map cover beyond NAAC, NBA and NIRF?
Master Data Map runs advanced modules on the same institutional record for AISHE, NEP 2020 compliance (credits, exits, the Academic Bank of Credits and APAAR), the THE and QS World University Rankings, the THE Sustainability Impact Ratings and QS Sustainability Rankings, and international accreditation — AACSB, AMBA and EQUIS for business schools and ABET for engineering programmes. Every module draws on the same faculty, student, outcome and research data, so every submission tells the same story.
Why one record instead of separate tools for each framework?
Around 68 percent of the data NAAC, NBA and NIRF ask for overlaps. Keeping it in three places means entering it three times and risking three different numbers for the same fact, which DVV and cross-validation checks flag. One record means each fact is entered once and used everywhere.
Does Master Data Map replace our campus ERP?
No. Master Data Map is built for accreditation and ranking, not day-to-day operations. It can take data from an existing ERP, or run standalone for institutions without one.
How is Master Data Map priced?
Institution plans are an annual subscription scoped to the frameworks you activate, the number of programmes and departments, and the depth of implementation support. Request a demo for a quote. Individual faculty can buy the OBE module (CO-PO Pro) at ₹2,499 + GST per subject or ₹4,999 + GST for up to 6 subjects.
Who implements it?
Edhitch’s own advisory team. The same people who have run NAAC, NBA and NIRF programmes for over twelve years set up your record, map your data and train your IQAC and programme coordinators.
Which streams does Master Data Map support?
Every stream NAAC accredits — engineering, medical, dental, pharmacy, nursing, law, management, architecture, agriculture, arts, science and commerce, teacher education and AYUSH. It covers NIRF for every ranked category and NBA for engineering, pharmacy, management and architecture programmes. For medical, dental and law colleges, our advisory team also runs NMC, NDC and BCI compliance alongside the platform. See your stream.
