Between MSc physics at BITS Goa and MSc physics at BITS Hyderabad, which one should one choose?

Both the options you have chosen here are equally good but IIT Madras is one of the 7 old IITs and is a well-reputed institute. If you are not looking to join a particular branch, my suggestion would be to go with IIT Madras. The placement statistics are great and overall, you will also get exposure to good faculty.

Students must have a bachelor’s degree with a minimum of 50% marks in aggregate or equivalent CGPA. The bachelor's degree must entail a minimum of three years of education along with 10+2 or equivalent. The conversion of marks or CGPA will be followed as per the norms of the university/institute from which the student has graduated.

Naturally, BITS Goa and Hyderabad weren’t planned randomly. There are years of strategic planning behind the establishment of these campuses. I learned from one of the faculties of BITS Pilani that the late Mr. K. K Birla wanted to expand BITS campuses way back in 1990s and assigned the task to the administration to find a suitable location for the second campus. During the tech boom of the 90s, IT companies were setting up shops everywhere in cities like Bangalore, Mumbai. They strategically choose Goa as it is between these two locations and well-connected because of its airport. The location also helped them attract faculties from IIT Bombay and IISc Bangalore. Mr. Monahar Parrikar, then CM approved the project quickly, and that’s how it was possible to set up the Goa campus so quickly. The Hyderabad campus also has a similar story. Mr. Chandra Babu Naidu, the CM of united Andra Pradesh back then, requested BITS to set up a campus in Hyderabad. He provided land for the campus and construction work was quick to follow. When the first batch joined in 20008, the infrastructure was already done.

How does the CSE program at Haldia Institute of Technology compare with VIT Vellore and other similar colleges?

If you're weighing CSE programs, VIT Vellore generally comes out on top. Many rank it just after the IIITs and BITS for Computer Science. If you're good with Data Structures, Algorithms, and a bit of competitive coding, you can definitely land a well-paying job from companies like Cisco or Microsoft. Recent placement stats show that the average CTC for CSE grads from VIT Vellore is around INR 7 LPA.
