Hi Harikrishna, GITAM will be a better choice because Lateral entry is not possible at GITAM on the basis of Diploma degree. There are limited seats for lateral entry so your percentage in the Diploma must be good. Hope this helps you!
Thanks.

Your Stream and college both are good in my opinion. If that is what you want to pursue, then go for it undoubtedly. M.Sc in Data Science is a good course, but might not be able to get you a job quickly. Although, if you are not aiming for job, but rather the Ph.D then this would be very beneficial. You can also qualify for Assitant Professor or researcher in many institutes.
