The 'better' course depends on various factors. Some of the core differences between the two are covered below:

BSc Computer Science: A 3-year UG academic degree in Computer Science. Usually preferred to get into research & academia. Though one can also work in roles like developer, analyst, or engineer after this course if they have a relevant skillset.  Though the curriculum has both theory & lab work included, it is still more of a theory-driven course focused on CS fundamentals. BSc CS has a shorter duration, an easier entry, and an affordable cost.

BTech CSE: By the name, a 4-year tech degree. Comparatively more advanced & application-based approach. Probably the most preferred for tech roles (ofcourse if you have the skills). Extensive labs works in the curriculum. The fee structures are usually high with highly competitive entry in top colleges. A bit more acceptable by foreign companies & universities for pursuing a Master's.

One should preferably have some skills in order to make the most out of their BSc CS degree. Find them listed below

• Keen interest in Computer Science
• Basic Computer Applications
• A hold of top Programming Languages
• Data Analysis
• Problem-solving ability
• Logical Reasoning
• Numerical Ability

IT deals is the application of technology for real-life operations. While Computer Science deals with the Science supporting these applications. 
Simply put - Computer Science is the creation of software & hardware by using programming. IT is just the selection of the proper software or hardware for the task. 

You see computer scientists often design and develop new software, operating systems, and computational systems, while IT professionals maintain, troubleshoot, and manage existing technology infrastructure.

You can take BSc computer Science course in your graduation even if you didn't have computer Science as one of your subjects in 11th and 12th. Although students are required to still fulfil the basic criteria to be eligible for this course and which is to pass class 12th with a minimum score of 50% (or 45%) along with Maths as one of the main subjects. While some colleges may prefer students who have studied Computer Science in class 12th yet it is not a mandatory requirement for admission.

BSc Computer Science scope in India is decent. Given that you have good skills and relevant experience/ projects in your resume. You can apply for roles like - Software engineer, Web developer, Data scientist, Database, Cybersecurity analyst, Data analyst etc. If you have a good track of research, thesis, etc. then you have scope in research & academia as well. Though a few places might prefer a pure tech degree, there are still ample companies hiring BSc CS graduates.
