While all three institutes are prestigious institutes, my sister chose ISI Kolkata for a number of reasons. Here are a few reasons
ISI Kolkata is a great option as it offers opportunities in both, jobs and higher education.

Both courses have their advantages and disadvantages. These are some of the key information about the two courses. Go through them and decide which will be better for you.
I have friends pursuing courses you mentioned above at either institute. Based on the discussion I have with them, here is what should be best for you,
However, the fees at BITS Goa are quite a lot.
The Joint MSc Ph.D. Mathematics program at IIT Bhubaneswar is pretty good, in fact, it is one of the very few IIT that delivers this specific program. From the academic year, 2013-14 IIT Bhubaneswar is offering this program. You can take admission through a valid score in JAM. The minimum educational qualification required for this program is a bachelor’s degree with Mathematics / Statistics as a subject for at least two years/ four semesters. There are in total 20 seats available for this specific program.
Any student admitted to a Joint M.Sc.-Ph.D. are eligible for consideration to take admission into Ph.D. programs provided the student obtains a certain minimum CGPA at the end of the fourth semester. Otherwise, the student will have to leave with an M.Sc. degree. One can also on their own, decide not to continue with the Ph.D. program and leave with an M.Sc. degree after successful completion of all the academic requirements for the first four semesters.
The School of Basic Sciences in Bhubaneswar has good and experienced faculty members. It has received various research and consultancy projects funded by agencies like DST, CSIR, DBT, BRNS, as well as industries. The research focus for Mathematics at this IIT is mostly on, Optimization Techniques, Transport Phenomena & Molecular Dynamics, Queuing Theory, Applied Probability Models, Biomolecular Transport Dynamics, Soft Computing, Computational Fluid Dynamics, Numerical Methods, Combinatorial Matrix Theory, Graph Theory, Complex Dynamics, Fractals, etc.
Although IIT Bhubaneswar is among the new IITs, it holds a good placement record. According to 2019 placement highlights, the average salary package offered at this IIT was 11.44 lakh per annum. And a total of 89 companies visited for recruitment last year.
So, if you want to pursue Joint MSc PhD Mathematics, IIT Bhubaneswar is definitely a good option.

Eligibility for not just the course but the college in general is 65+ in PCM each in 12th boards and 75+ aggregate in PCM. The application form is available on the BITS Pilani website. BITS Pilani has no caste reservations at all. However, there is direct entry to boards state toppers. Exams are held in two sessions every year. There have been recent improvements in the exam process. I think increasing the number of centres for the exam could be an improvement.
Not sure about the increase policy but I guess it's like 5% each year. Complete cost of education is about 35-40 lacs. There are various scholarships. Some are Merit Scholarships and Merit-cum-need Scholarships.
The placement is great. The average package is 30 lacs and the median is 30 lacs too. We have Practice School 1 and Practice School 2 which are basically internships, after 2nd and 3rd year respectively.
I have been very interested in mathematics from the start. That's what led me to choose the course. Of course, the placements are great too. The courses have been perfected by experienced and knowledgeable faculties over the last 60 years.
