It's amazing that you're a HITK student, my brother was one too and his friend and his colleague's daughter as well. Coming back to your question, yes, you can change your stream in the first year. 

Build a CGPA of 8.5 or above to apply. You will become eligible for application. You can then easily apply for a change of stream. 

You may get disappointed when the administration tells you that the seat will be allotted on the basis of availability. The higher your score, the greater are the chances- they will hint at this as well, but don't lose hope because they will have a seat for you.

There are few differences between the CSE and the IT branch in MNNIT in Allahabad. One of my friends studies at MNNIT, so I can give you the basic difference between these two branches.

1. Academically: 5th and 8th Semester subjects of CSE and IT branch are different. 
2. Learning: There is not much difference on the learning basis. Core subjects are the same in both departments. In both departments, you will learn through self-study. 
3. Placements: There is no difference in placement of CSE and IT branches. Several companies come for placement for both departments, giving you several opportunities. 

The recruiting companies are more or less the same that offer both CSE and IT. The list includes - Microsoft, Google, Accenture, Oracle, PWC, Capgemini, Byju’s, Jaro Education, Adobe, Goldman Sachs, etc.

There is only a slight difference between both departments. Both the departments of MNNIT Allahabad are almost the same on the basis of learning, placement. So, if you want to join MNNIT Allahabad CSE or IT branch then go for it.

My friend is currently pursuing B.Tech from NIT Raipur in the mechanical department. His honest opinion says that you should go for metallurgy at NIT Trichy. Here’s why

• If you went for the wrong branch or found out later that this is not your cup of tea, then after the 1st year you will have an option called branch sliding. In this process, you can change your branch from the current one to the desired one based upon the number of vacancies and score.
• If you went for the wrong college, then there's no option as a college slide! You’ll have to devote your 4 years in that college anyhow, except if you again decide to give mains.

So, if you simply want to get into a better place then choose NIT Trichy. This is because you can get the advantage of branch sliding anyhow. However, if you don’t want to take risk of not getting the desired branch, then go for NIT Raipur.

At last, sort your preferences and know your sole aim. Because in the long run, your happiness and satisfaction are what matters the most!
