IIIT Pune would be a better option than IIIT Vadodara as it gives better exposure and has a decent placement record.
One of my relatives studies there, and it gives the idea about the college very well. However, the college is newly settled and not as old as other IIIT. It is growing and improving and in upcoming years it may become the top college in Maharashtra.
The following table shows you the placement scenario of both colleges.
