Hello Saicharan,
Indeed, choosing Power Systems and Power Electronics at IIT Madras would be worthwhile due to the brand value of the institute, the faculty, and the interdisciplinary platform. While this program is typically associated with core electrical roles (PSU, R&D, power sector companies), IIT Madras would allow you flexibility if you were willing to select electives and projects in VLSI beyond the main area of study, particularly if you are trying to switch to a new discipline.
The average (PS/PE) package for IIT Madras is in the range of 12–18 LPA, depending on the candidate's skillset and internship/research profile. The opportunities could be some of the top companies in this sphere such as GE, Siemens, Schneider, Tata Power and various R&D wings of MNCs. If you are interested in VLSI and you are willing to put in the extra effort (projects, elective courses, internships), then IIT Madras will give you a better ecosystem to do so than NIT Rourkela because of its network, infrastructure, and placement diversity. Some students from other departments have landed VLSI jobs this way, but it requires significant preparation and initiative.
