What should I prefer, KJ Somaiya IT or CS from Thadomal Shahani?
There isn't much of a difference between IT and CS, forget institutes individually where you would pursue them. Both CS and IT happen to consist of more or less the same subjects and the course pattern is also similar.

I have done BE (Computer) and now pursuing ME from SGBAU Amravati, Maharashtra, India. I want to go to a corporate job. Will my ME make any benefit for me?
Probably not but it may be useful if you want to be a professor, and should prepare yourself to do a Ph.D. from a more reputed university.
BE will help you understand the theory which you can ten implement practically. ME or M.Tech is basically for shifting to the teaching line. Though there are some specializations that will equip you with deeper technical knowledge.
During placements, you will have an edge over BE candidates. Students graduating with ME or M.Tech generally go for Research and Development.
Post Graduation has an advantage but for a corporate job, being a BE or B.Tech graduate, you can also apply. Studying 2 more years is a choice that varies from student to student. There is no right answer so, choose to do whatever you feel will be suitable for you.

Which is better, a COE at Thapar or a CSE at IIIT, Una? Does IIT Una come under NIT Hamirpur?
Currently, IIIT Una facilitates education through two temporary campuses of Dev Bhumy Group of Institutes, Himachal Pradesh and the NIT campus at Hamirpur, the main campus is still under construction and the placement is average.
The first batch of IIIT Una passed in 2018, with an average salary of INR 3-4 LPA and highest salary of INR 10-12 LPA. In 2020, 90% students were placed and the average salary increased to 8 LPA and the highest to 16 LPA, hence it is being assumed that these statistics will improve in the upcoming years to reach the level of performance of NIT Hamirpur.
For now, you'd like to know these -
- NIT Hamirpur has been ranked #98 by NIRF and Thapar ranks #29 on the same.
- As IIIT Una is working under the aegis of NIT Hamirpur, the institute receives the same companies for placement as does NIT Hamirpur. This year, names like Infosys, Reliance and IBM graced the campus and the highest package offered was INR 62 LPA.
- For COE, Thapar University students receive an average salary of INR 6-7 LPA.
It is difficult to assume anything in the case of IIIT Una, it has improved from the 2018 statistics, but it cannot be said how successful it'll be in four years' time. Whereas Thapar University is developing well as far as placements are concerned, in 2020 the highest package offered to Thapar University students was INR 39 LPA and 990+ companies made offers to them.
