There is scope for B.Tech biotechnology in India. But there are not as many companies here in India to support this field. So you will have to face strong competition, you will have to be more competent because there are very few companies in India. Therefore, if you can do B.Tech in some other field, I would recommend you that or if you've great interest in this field then try to go to some other country.

Yes, it is really one of the good courses with pretty good placements and job opportunities. IILM, Amity, and Gorakhpur University do provide this course in their curriculum.
