IITs are for those who are on the lookout for jobs and have little or no interest in research work. IISc on the other hand primarily focuses on research work.
Basically, to pursue a career in any branch of engineering, the industry-oriented Bachelor's program offered at IITs is perfect. But for a research enthusiast who is keen to pursue a career in research, IISc is the best option.
Ultimately, the better institute is one that aligns with your preferences and area of interest.
For better reference, I have compared the IISc placement statistics with the topmost IIT Bombay

You can clearly see that IIT Bombay offers much better job opportunities than IISc.
It actually depends on your degree. For bachelor's courses, IIT Bombay is a better choice. IISc started delivering UG courses recently. But for PG courses like M.Tech or Ph.D. IISc is definitely the better option.
B.Tech is the most valued course at IIT Bombay. It gives the UG student a sense of superiority. While each department of IISc has a limited number of PG and Ph.D. students. The building and resources are completely separate for UG and PG students.
The student-professor ratio of IISc is around 7-8 students per professor. While it is around 25-30 students per professor at IIT Bombay.
IISc MTech branches have a better placement record as well. Good placement opportunities, multidisciplinary approach, research focus, are some of the perks of joining IISc.
I feel I am the right person to answer this as my brother and a friend are in VIT and KIIT respectively. From what I heard from them, I derived the following conclusions
My friend at VIT also experienced a similar situation as both are private colleges striving to attract students.

Here are a few factors to consider while comparing NIT Surathkal and DTU.
In all, all the 3 institutes you mentioned are prestigious institutes that will offer a plethora of opportunities in shaping your career. What matters is how well you grab the opportunities and climb the success ladder.
You should choose SSCBS.
SSCBS offers good academics, placements, and an enviable campus experience.
IIIT Hyderabad strongly focuses on CS and it’s known for its excellent coding culture while BITS Pilani focuses equally on a variety of specializations. At IIIT Hyderabad students are introduced to CS subjects right from the first semester while in BITS Pilani the first semester comprises subjects from various disciplines.

IIIT Hyderabad has a smaller Campus compared to BITS PILANI and also has fewer facilities than BITS. Also, IIIT Hyderabad does not have a very happening campus life, and extracurricular activities are rarely given importance. BITS Pilani on the other hand has many cultural and sports events.
It’s better to look beyond placements and look at the bigger picture. That being said, IIIT Hyderabad is a good choice if your passion is coding while if you want a good college life and want to develop your personality as a whole, BITS Pilani will serve you best.
I know a person who is pursuing Neurosurgery and he does not feel it is not necessary to go through 3 years of MS general surgery before taking up neurosurgery. As a 6-year student, he was supposed to rotate through 10 months of general surgery.
He did not find general surgical skills that he acquired during the rotation, of much use in neurosurgery, other than the very basic knot tying and suturing skills, which can also be acquired through dedicated lab practice.
The other techniques followed in neurosurgery are significantly different from those followed in general surgery. The extensive use of the surgical microscope and bipolar coagulation for hemostasis distinguishes this surgical discipline from general surgery.
Today, neurosurgeons typically use access surgeons (thoracic surgeons or urologists) if they want to perform any unconventional approaches to the spine, which is much safer for the patient.
A lot of post-MS students don’t find much difference in incompetence or spectrum of surgeries and they are comfortable when compared with those having gone through six years of courses.
Globally, there is a trend towards running integrated courses only. Also, in India, pursuing a 6 years’ course after MBBS means you will have one less entrance examination to worry about.
It’s highly illogical to compare a well-recognized brand like ISB with a no-name institute like IBS. It seems you are a bit confused between the 2 schools because comparing them is a literal joke.
ISB is ranked 1st in India and 4th in Asia and 32nd in the World at Best B Schools. It’s a B School that competes with top B schools like IIM ABC and here you are comparing it with a C grade B school in the country.
Almost anyone can get into IBS owing to the low qualifying scores needed and high number of seats available. Whereas getting into ISB is difficult even with a GMAT score as high as 99 percentile. ISB has the best corporate relations team in India and they work hard to get the roles that you want in the corporate sector.
The two colleges may share the same alphabet in their acronyms but there are nowhere similar when it comes to the brand name and worth.
Usually, people consider IIM ABC better than FMS. Some parameters on the basis of which people usually compare these colleges are
You can use these parameters to decide which is a better B School for you.
VMMC offers 170 seats for the MBBS program whereas MAMC offers a total of 250 seats. While both VMMC and MAMC are very renowned colleges, the first year at VMMC is still quite stress-free whereas MAMC adheres to a strict curriculum.
VMMC offers a top-notch infrastructure with modern equipment and supportive staff. It has one of the largest government hospital complexes in India along with Asia’s largest OPD. On the other hand, MAMC also offers decent infrastructure and facilities on campus for students’ overall well-being.
The primary reason for aspirants to choose VMMC is the Internal PG reservation. Since VMMC is affiliated with IP University, UG students (MBBS) are eligible for an internal PG Quota and can secure MD/MS seats at VMMC.
It is advisable to choose VMMC to avail the benefits of reservation for PG courses. Although, MAMC doesn’t provide any reservations for PG courses. Students graduating from MAMC are equipped with a strong academic foundation and can be highly competitive.
