A senior of mine from school is an alumnus of BITS Goa and he has all the respect for the institution. He has told me that BIT Mesra is a good place for someone who would like to pursue CSE, ECE. The placement is also pretty good there from what he has heard.
Coming to BITS Goa, it is a tier 1 Indian engineering institution. Most of the students from Indian engineering colleges practice computer programming for becoming computer engineers. There are packages of 5-50 LPA, depending on the skills of the applicants. These companies do not look for academic credentials. They are only interested in the GitHub and TopCoder profiles of the job applicants.
A lot of the BIT alumni end up being managers in industries, based on hard work and luck. The package would be around 5-15 LPA. Unlike in the previous case, these companies are heavily dependent on the academic credentials of the job applicants.
BIT Mesra is a 3 tier engineering institute. Most of the students who have completed their education from this institute end up working in working as employees in the IT companies that are service-based with packages of 3-4 LPA.

Let's consider the aforementioned parameters individually to draw a comparison between DTU and IIIT Hyderabad.
Teaching and Faculty: Without any second thoughts, I would say IIIT Hyderabad is way ahead of DTU in terms of faculty. It has a very highly experienced faculty pool that is involved in cutting-edge research work.
Social Life: DTU is well-known for its dynamic college life that will give you amazing memories, opportunities, and friends. Here, students are given time for both academics as well as extracurriculars to ensure a vibrant campus life and holistic development of the students. IIIT Hyderabad has a very rigid and monotonous campus life as it's filled with nerds.
Placements: Both the institutes have an equally good placement scenario despite the high difference in intake and number of branches. It's best to refer to official stats while comparing pavements and I have done that for you.

From the above table, it can be inferred that the placement scenario is equally good. Before you say that DTU has an average package that is lower than IIIT Hyderabad, consider the fact that it has multiple branches and a much higher intake than IIIT Hyderabad.
A parameter I would like to add on my own accord would be the ROI. Considering DTU’s low fees and equally good placements, it offers better ROI than IIIT Hyderabad
Ultimately, go for IIIT Hyderabad if you are a crazy computer lover and don’t mind a boring college life. But if you want a happening college life and want to explore various fields, DTU is the one for you!
