It depends on your future plan. If you want good salary packages after your master's, then doing an MS from the US will be better.

Many major MNCs have their headquarters in Silicon Valley. The job profiles offered are also comparably better there. But doing an MS from the US is no mean feat. It’s expensive and risky.
