From TOI
In a striking and grim indication of the number of BE/B.Tech seats in self-financing engineering colleges in the state overshooting the
demand, 42 institutions have failed to attract a single student in the ongoing Tamil Nadu Engineering Admissions (TNEA 2009) academic stream counselling.
...
Equally glaring is the fact that no student including from the vocational stream has opted to join the BE Information Technology course in 162 colleges and the Computer Science Engineering course in 141 institutions as on Monday morning

I am so not surprised with this nugget of information
Yeah...there was a statistic in 'The Hindu' outlining how demand for C.S had reduced drastically whereas that for Mechanical (or Civil, I forget) had risen in turn "http://www.hinduonnet.com/2009/07/17/stories/2009071759740700.htm"
To state the obvious, now that IT demand is down, other fields will be chosen by talented students with potential improvement in them.
