To understand the basic of CSE, you need to study science subjects such as Physics, Mathematics, etc. You need basic understanding of these subjects, to handle tough engineering concepts. These subjects also help build logical and conceptual thinking. If you don’t have a basic understanding of these subjects, you will learn to code blindly. This isn’t beneficial in long run. Top technological institutes like IIIT Hyderabad have compulsory science subjects.
Yes, IIIT Lucknow has a better package for CS and IT students than IIIT Allahabad and IIIT H. However, it will not give you a guarantee that you will get placed after completing your studies from IIIT Lucknow.

Seeing the current scenario, in future also, IIIT Lucknow will give good placement to its students.
Therefore, if you are thinking of joining IIIT Lucknow then go for it. Because apart from having similar faculty to other top institutes, IIIT - L provides students to improve their technical and soft skills. And that improves the chance of their placement.
As far as Computer Science Engineering is concerned, at Manipal University, it has the second-highest placements after the Mechanical department. CSE students receive the highest package with the greatest number of offers.
Many popular companies like IBM, Microsoft, Amazon are known to recruit students from the computer science engineering department. The highest package offered is about INR 42 lakhs per annum with an average package of INR 6.2 lakhs per annum.
Additionally, it is worth noting that among all departments, students from this department are the first to get placed, ideally, in the 7th semester itself.
In this era, if you want to engage in computer science, you don't need a degree. Unfortunately, the Indian system values degrees as well as relevant skills. All you need is a good computer, an internet connection, and a desire to learn. If you cannot afford four years or a large tuition fee for engineering, consider taking some related courses such as mathematics, statistics, or commerce.
You can learn skills on your own using free and paid online platforms, complete projects related to your skill set, and you'll be employable, possibly better than an engineering graduate.
Practicals (Lab sessions) are regarded as the backbone of engineering courses in other branches (though our colleges give much more importance to theory).
Many prestigious institutes outside of India are focusing on "outcome-based education." That is, simply having the certificate and having no idea what you did in college, or simply studying for the sake of passing the exam, isn't a big deal. You must be an authority in your field.
