CSE at many of the IIITs are a preferable option over lower branches at NITs, provided youre genuinely interested in pursuing CSE. Otherwise, I believe NITs after IITs are some of the best Technical Institutions of India with strong infrastructure, faculty, placements as far as most of the Top 10-12 NITs are concerned.
