Hope it helps. -
Admission for B.Tech/BE programme in BIT - (i) Indian students - Based on AIR in JEE-Main through CSAB (Central Seat Allocation Board) / JoSAA (Joint Seat Allocation Authority).
(ii) NRI/PIO/ SFFS Based on marks obtained by the candidates in Class 12th / equivalent qualifying examination. -
There is no separate examination of any sort for the admission in BE/B.Tech Biotechnology except JEE mains. If you seek admission in this field, you need to crack JEE Mains to be eligible.
PCB group students can appear for JEE mains, given that they also have maths as their subject in 10+2.
There is no other way to get admission in BE/ B.Tech for any of the branches including biotechnology. -
Admission in our college take place through JEE Mains only for B.E course so it is the only way to get into it. Some seats are there for NRI candidates too so you can apply for the same if you fall in such category even after you havn't given JEE Mains.

Honestly, going for CSE at Chandigarh University with your score sounds like a solid choice. I'm saying this because CU has become a hub for tech placements and internships, and the environment is pretty competitive in a good way.
