Dear Animesh ,
 
Doing M tech from IIT is a gud option if u had complete ur  engg from some regional coll / NIT . Placements of Mtech are not so gud  as compared to btech and dual degree students of IIT but it wil surely  help u in further post graduation like Phd from India/Abroad. You can  apply in diff reasearch institutes of india like IISc, BAARC etc. Salary  of the recruited students from iit campus is sufficient enough for  survival.. min. salary package awarded by companies in iit is 4 lakh. M  tech students do get the same package as Btech but some times it happens  that some companies are only open for btech and not mtech..so  selections depends entirely on companies. IF not recruited in campus  placements u can apply offcampus and     m tech from iit's has always an  edge compared to others.
