Hello Sumit!
IIIT can refer to either International Institute of Information Technology or Indian Institute of Information Technology (except IIITD : Indraprastha Institute of Information Technology ). All of them are similar in academic status.
So, in a broader aspect, IIITs are a group of Higher Educational Institutes in India mainly focused at Information Technology (IT) . They provide engineering courses on IT or its related fields like CSE, ECE and some of them also offer Dual degrees like (B.Tech.+M.Tech.), (IT/Mechanical+Engineering Design), (B.Tech.+MBA courses) and (B.Tech. + MS(Research)).
Admission to IIITs are provided on the basis of JEE(Mains) scores and AIR.
Based on funding, IIITs can be of three different types :-
1. Fully funded by Govt. of India (MHRD) :-
-IIIT Allahabad
-IIIT Jabalpur
-IIIT Gwalior
-IIIT Kanchipuram
-IIIT Kurnool

2. PPP (Public-Private-Partnership) :-
-IIIT Chitoor
-IIIT Kota
-IIIT Guwahati
-IIIT Kalyani
-IIIT Vadodara
-IIIT Manipur
-IIIT Trichy
-IIIT Sonepat
-IIIT Lucknow
-IIIT Una and many others.

3. Funded by private bodies :-
-IIIT Hyderabad
-IIIT Bangalore
-IIIT Bhubaneswar

*IIIT-Delhi is a State Govt. institute of Delhi.

International Institutes like IIIT-H are usually private and so, are not aided by the government. While most of the Indian Institutes like IIIT-A are either funded by MHRD or come under PPP.

Feel free to ask in the comment section if you have any more queries in this regard.

I hope this answer will be helpful to you.
