I have got 79% in 12th and 23 marks in JEE Mains 2018. Should I take a year's drop for preparation or get into a private college?

You should take admission in a private college rather than dropping a year.
-
If you are passionate about your aim of joining IITs,m NITs or government colleges, you can drop a year and join a coaching class. If you are not sure about passing it again, I mean if you cannot pass next time with good marks, you are going to waste a year. So, in this, case you can take admission in any private college. You can take GATE after completing UG adn pursue Master's degree from a reputed college.

If you think that you can crack JEE Mains then you should drop a year. Your 12th percentage and marks are not good enough to get a good college. You should drop a year if you think you can crack the exam. You have to work very hard. Give your best.
Don't lose hope. -
Obviously, if you are sure that you can clear JEE Mains in the next try, you should drop a year, but if you are in hesitant then don't waste your precious year.
