I can understand that choosing between IIT Bhubaneswar for CSE and IIT Kharagpur for mechanical engineering can be a tough choice. But it depends on your career goals and preferences. I don't have much idea about IIT Kharagpur but I can guide you about IIT Bhubaneswar. Being a student at IIT Bhubaneswar myself I can say that the institution offers excellent academic standards for the students.

The CSE department offers both undergraduate and postgraduate full-time courses for the students.
The average fee for a first-year BTech in CSE at IIT Bhubaneswar is around INR 2.32 Lakhs.
The placement scenario at IIT Bhubaneswar is good. In 2023, the CSE department had 100% placement of the students with the highest salary package offered is INR 55.75 LPA and the average salary package is INR 20.18 LPA.

Indian Institute of Technology, Bhubaneswar (2020)

IIT Kharagpur is a much notable and popular IIT. It is one of the older IITs, making it more reliable and popular among students and professionals alike. It is the first IIT to be established. It ranks 5th in the Engineering category by NIRF 2020. The cut off for Mechanical Engineering in IIT Kharagpur ranged from 1500-5000. Companies like Amazon, Adobe, Cypress, Deshaw are among the top recruiters at IIT Kharagpur. An average salary package of 14 lakhs per annum was provided to students recruited in MNCs in 2019 placement. Being the oldest of the IITs the faculty is more experienced and IIT Kharagpur offers many facilities like hostels, Food Courts, Library, Hospital, 2 Stadiums along with swimming pool and gym all within the campus, making it a society of their own.

Unlike IIT Kharagpur, IIT Bhubaneswar lacks a little behind in Infrastructure, Faculty members, On-Campus Facilities, etc. as it is a newer establishment. IIT Bhubaneswar ranks 22nd by NIRF 2020. The cut off for CSE is 1200-4000. IIT Bhubaneswar though not as reputable as IIT Kharagpur has seen a 100% placement in the CSE department in the year 2019. With an average salary package of 11 lakhs per annum. So choosing to study CSE in IIT Bhubaneswar will not be a bad choice.

Both options have their merits so choose according to your preference of subject and your rank.
