Finance as a major for studies hasn't picked up in India, so there are only a handful of colleges/B-Schools that offer an MS in Finance. The colleges are (in order of what I feel should be their ranking):
1. JBIMS, MumbaiCourse M.Sc. FinanceLocated in the financial capital of India and having the first mover advantage, it is currently the best option available in India. Placement - the highest CTC - 21.5 lacks, Average CTC - 16.3 lacks (2015-17 Batch)
2. SVKM'S NMIMS, MumbaiCourse M.Sc. FinanceThis course was started in 2017 and is relatively unknown, has a lot of potential given the NMIMS brand name.
3. Gokhale Institute of Politics and Economics, Pune
Course M.Sc. (Financial Economics)M.Sc. (International Business Economics and Finance)
This option is best suited for people with economics background or those looking to go for research post MS.

Dual degree programs are a combination of B.Tech and MS by research. The concept of MS in India is inspired by foreign institute, as outside India only MS is offered as a PG programme. The chances of getting a Ph.D. will be higher for MS students compare to M.Tech student for the below reasons
MS is a research oriented course so after doing MS you will have a clear vision about research and your interest area. Most people have 2-3 good publication during MS, which make their chances of getting good Ph.D. much-2 higher. Outside India M.Tech does't exist only MS is popular, so they will prefer a familiar degree rather than a unfamiliar one while taking admission. I am not very sure about approval from AICTE and government. Jobs, but I think MS peoples are eligible at most of these jobs as they have a PG degree from a reputed college.
