Hi,

In my opinion you should go for IIIT Kottayam.

Among new iiits IIIT Kottayam is more experienced and reputed. As IIIT Kottayam is going to get its permanent campus (first among other IIITs) which shows its superiority, sincerity and the speed of developing. In 1 to 2 years IIIT Kottayam will have same reputation as old NITs ,IIITs and IITs also. It has best academic syllabus which is same as for IIIT Hyderabad. Also the location provides it to get best placement as Kochi, Bengaluru and Chennai (Industry areas) are situated very near to Kottayam.

Go for IIIT Kottayam which is a very promising institute of south India. I can say that the Coding culture are the best part of this college. The competition is very good inside the college, each student is involved in building new stuffs and programming. The campus is very huge and beautiful.

This is my priority for CS branch -  Kottayam>>Chitoor.

Placement: The very first batch itself saw an average package of 7.5 lpa (with almost everyone participating getting an offer) which is as good compared as mid level NITs. The placement ought to get better in coming years as the sets of students get better year by year. This is just the beginning. If a college can deliver such a good placement in the very starting years you can expect the level it aims to reach in coming years. The curriculum is beautiful. You will learn a lot. Mentorship by IIITK helps like charm.

I would give IIIT Kottayam more priority for CSE branch in compare to IIIT Chittor. Now final decision will be yours, choose according to your priority.

Hope this helps.

All the best.
