Doing PhD in economics from top institution like IITs and IIMs would be a great option.If you want a business and management oriented (applied economics) role go for IIM, while IITs are best suited for research in core economics and quantitative economic research.So the choice is totally dependent upon you field of interest and future goals.

Hope this would be fruitful to decide between the two.

The first-year transfer from NIT to IIT cannot happen directly because IITs do not have student transfer policies. Student relationship programs between NITs and IITs let qualified students from NITs study at IITs as per mutual agreement protocols but only for limited academic periods. Students should first clear JEE Advanced and obtain admission as a new entrant to join an IIT. Current policies of the IITs forbid direct student transfers from NITs while they do present research internships and special programs that allow NIT students to join but not through direct admission routes.

With a JEE Advanced rank under 1000, you have a strong chance of getting into IIT Bombay or IIT Madras, potentially in top-tier branches like Computer Science, Electrical, or Mechanical Engineering, but IIT fees for a B.Tech range from approximately INR 8 Lakhs - INR 10 Lakhs. 

Can you get into IIT Bombay or IIT Madras with a rank under INR1000

Yes, you likely can. 

With a rank under 1000, you're in a strong position to gain admission to top IITs like IIT Bombay, IIT Delhi, IIT Madras, and IIT Kanpur, potentially in competitive fields like Computer Science, Electrical, or Mechanical Engineering.
