The registration page has a list of colleges organized by State and you can select from the same. The list is massive though, so most students here should be covered.

Just a small warning from personal experience to potential participants

This same site "campus-connect.com" had organised a competition called "John Deere Technochamp 2011" a few months back

They had promised that all the finalists would be given certificates of participation, but later backed out and gave certificates only to the winners.

Now, they have removed all traces of the competiton from their site.
 
Just to clarify, AFAIK, campus-connect is just a facilitator. This particular contest is being run by my company. "John Deere Technochamp" would have been run by John Deere India. The TOC would be up to the people running the contest, not campus-connect.
