In my opinion, the institute is more crucial than the branch as academics rarely matter for an IITian. What actually matters is how the college molded him from a fresher to a mentally stable and talented person who has honed his talents to the fullest through maximum exploration.

That being said, I would recommend you to go for IIT Bombay irrespective of the branch you are able to make it into. 

  • IIT Bombay has its own legacy of being an IIT from the start whereas IIT Roorkee was a State University initially. Hence it is still undergoing changes. This eventually limits the opportunities offered to the students especially related to research work. At IIT Bombay many universities and R&D labs approach students for internships. 
  • The rules for girls and boys are equal at IIT Bombay, unlike IIT Roorkee which discriminates between the 2 genders. 
  • Because of its location, IIT Bombay, the finance capital is preferred over Roorkee. 
  • The placements are better at IIT Bombay Civil than at IIT Roorkee Electrical, so need not worry about jobs. 

Overall, IIT Bombay will give you a sense of freedom to explore everything and broaden your opportunities.
