NIT Srinagar is the best option among the ones mentioned in the question. But living in Srinagar is challenging. If you can deal with frequent disruption and non-functionality of the institute then you can choose NIT Srinagar.
Nirma University can be a good alternative too. It is one of the best engineering colleges in Gujarat as well as India. As it is located on the Gandhinagar-Ahmedabad highway, many reputed MNCs visit the campus. Nirma has a 120-acre campus. It offers good infrastructure. Their placement record is also quite impressive. Almost 90% of students get placed in reputed companies. The only disadvantage of choosing Nirma is that they don’t offer a hostel.
In North-East, you can go with Agartala or Silchar.
NIT Kurukshetra ranks 43rd among the top engineering colleges in India by NIRF 2019. The institute is one of the best, having many good experienced faculties for civil engineering. The placement statistics have gone beyond 95% since 2015.
CSE from UIET Chandigarh is one of the best institutes providing better placement beyond 80% every year. The institute is affiliated to Punjab University and ranks 54th among the private engineering colleges NIRF ranking 2019.

You can go to Amrita University without any doubt. Being a new generation college, people now think differently and do not opt for Government colleges just for their reputation.
A lot of my friends recently graduated from NIT Trichy in CSE while some who graduated from Amrita University are doing quite well.
According to my friend at Amrita, the environment is free and lenient. Furthermore, recently he won the 4th hackathon with his peers (team of 4) and his team was different in all 4 hackathons.

I hope it would be easier to come to a clear conclusion of which college to opt for. Choose Amrita if you aren’t getting your desired branch in IITs, NITs, or BITS. But, if you opt for Amrita University I assure you, you won’t regret it.
A few of my friends graduated from AIACTR, MAIT, and MSIT. Here are some facts about these colleges, which might help you make a proper choice.
AIACTR –
MAIT and MSIT –
Categories | AIACTR | MAIT | MSIT |
Course Fee | 38,000 (1st year) | 5.73 lakh | 4.69 lakh |
Highest CTC | 15 LPA | 23 LPA | 21 LPA |
Average CTC | 8 LPA | 12 LPA | 10 LPA |
Recruiting Companies | TCS, Havells, Wipro, Infosys, etc. | Accenture, HP, TCS, HCL, etc. | Bosch, Crisil, IBM, ITC, etc. |
MSIT is a good option if the infrastructure and strict attendance are not your major concern. If so you can easily opt for MSIT over the other two. However, make the wise decision considering other factors too.
It’s difficult to determine which institute is better as the courses are not mentioned for the given college. However, given below are information about the colleges which may help you make the decision.

One of my friends is an alumnus of NIT Surathkal and was in awe of it since the beginning of his academic program.
Another friend of mine was in the third year of chemical engineering in NIT Nagpur and felt as if he did not gain any technical knowledge after studying for three years. This is something overlooked by most 'excellent' universities across India and they do not allow students to question it. Therefore, if you have a better option available- go for that, not any NIT.
Between MSIT ECE and MAIT EEE, the former is the better alternative. As a branch ECE has better future prospects than EEE. You have to work hard to secure a decent placement opportunity in the field of EEE.

I have few friends at both IIITM Gwalior and IIITDM Jabalpur. Based on the conversation I had with them, I will say IIITM Gwalior is the better option for CSE.
The faculty at IIITM Gwalior is great. Most of the faculty members have Ph.D. The placement record of IIITM Gwalior is also quite impressive.
Here are the recent placement statistics for the institute.

IIITM Gwalior ranks better than IIITDM Jabalpur on almost all platforms. It also has a better coding culture. You can check the institute ranking on SPOJ to have a better idea about the coding culture on campus.
Both MNNIT Allahabad and ENI at BITS Goa are highly ranked technology colleges offering amazing placement opportunities to their students. NIRF ranked BITS Goa at 17th in the University category, whereas MNNIT was ranked at 48 for B.Tech in India 2020.
MNNIT’s last year placement ranking has seen a rise in the pay packages and the best placement record of almost 97%. BITS Goa on the other hand holds a stellar placement record of 100% since its inception. But while selecting between electrical engineering at MNNIT Allahabad or ENI at BITS Goa one needs to consider certain facts such as:

BITS Goa –
In recent years both MNNIT Allahabad as well as BITS Goa have seen a considerable hike in their placement opportunities for almost all courses. It depends more on the student’s interest and feasibility to choose between electrical engineering at MNNIT Allahabad or ENI at BITS Goa.
Here is some information to assist you in choice-making-
IIT Dhanbad Mechanical is the best option among the three. This college has a rich legacy and a strong brand value. Apart from that, it offers good placements with brands like Tata visiting the campus for recruitment purposes.
But if you have an interest in Electrical, you can opt for IIT Tirupati. Unlike before, the college is now functioning from its permanent campus. The permanent campus is destined to house 12,500 students. It is under construction in phases, but it already houses 1500+ students at present.
Therefore, IIT Dhanbad Mechanical is the best choice. But if Electrical interests you, opt for IIT Tirupati Electrical.
