You must have a bachelor's degree of at least 3 years in any discipline from a recognised university.
You need to have studied Mathematics either at the 10+2 level or during your graduation.
You should have at least 60% marks in aggregate in your bachelor's degree (55% for SC/ST).
Admission is based on merit (10th, 12th, and graduation marks).
In short: 3-year degree + maths at 12th or graduation + 60% (55% for reserved) is required for MCA at Thapar.

Thapar University is clearly better for B.Tech CSE than Chitkara University.
Why Thapar > Chitkara (for CSE):
Stronger brand & reputation
Better placements (higher average & top packages)
More competitive peer group
Better faculty, coding culture, and alumni network
Chitkara is decent if:
You want lower fees
Easier admissions
More hand-holding and structured discipline
Verdict:
If you can afford it and get in → choose Thapar.
If budget or admission is a constraint → Chitkara is okay, but not in the same league.
