Firstly,I want to say that choose as per your interest do  not take admission on the basis of that which is better or not.If you are interested in any branch then that will be definitely best suited for you.According to your question the most preferable order in increasing order is - IIT madras(chemical)>IIT Roorkee(mechanical)>IIT Bombay (civil)>IIT Delhi(production).

If you are really interested in Engineering Physics or doing research in that field then it is very good option. In Engineering Physics you basically have to study the topics which you study in general physics like quantum is the most important of all and like that only ther topics are also there. 

See placements are also good in this course , but mostly people go for phd and research programs in US or Germany etc.

So you have both options.

Thank you.

I see that you have got 5200 rank in obc category and you want to persue Msc in Physics from IIT Roorkee. But it is too much to get admission in IITR. 

If I consider previous year closing rank then i found out that closing rank iin round 7 was around 4000. So it would be quite tough for you to get into IITR.You may try other colleges.

Thank You.
