Trying to find a competition should not require opening ten tabs and decoding ten different listing pages. This guide puts the decisions first: who can enter, whether you need a team, what it costs, what you can win, and where to register.
New here? A hackathon is a time-boxed event where you build a project, prototype, or solution. A case competition asks you to analyse a business problem and present a recommendation. In both cases, you register with the organiser, not with Brabble.

What the reviewed material says
Submission path:
- An Innovation Treasure Hunt, described by Unstop as a non-eliminator round with hints placed on TVS Credit's social media.
- A domain specific MCQ assessment, with questions customised for each of the IT, Analytics, Finance, and Strategy tracks.
- A case study round asking for a framework or wireframe solution to a real business problem, submitted as a deck.
- A grand finale requiring a working prototype presented live to an expert jury.
Evidence-backed notes:
- Unstop's own writeup of the competition states that the assessment rounds are auto scored using its AI features to keep scoring consistent across the four tracks, so the early rounds reward accuracy and speed rather than presentation. (source)
- The aggregator CourseJoiner lists the season 8 stages as a demo assessment, a live treasure hunt, a Round 1 assessment, a Round 2 case study challenge, and a Round 3 grand finale with a working prototype shown to judges. (source)
- CourseJoiner reports the season 8 prize pool as ₹2,50,000 split across winner, two runners up, and a special jury award, with pre placement interview opportunities for internships and management trainee roles attached. (source)
- Entry is restricted to full time engineering and management students from the same college, so the team must be assembled within one institution. (source)
