Hi
LPU realizes that paradigm changes are happening around the world. Rapidly changing business landscape requires young leaders to not only understand developing economies but also develop a global perspective at the same time in order to be an integral part of the growth of the economy

It depends upon your interest. I would like to mention that BCA concentrates on applications of computers and B.Tech CS is based on intensive programming and software/hardware knowledge. Though both the programs are very well delivered in LPU. Now-a-days many students have stared pursuing B.Tech CSE because off its high demand. Students are exposed too the fields like cloud computing, IoT, data Science, Machine Learning, Big Data and many more
Adding to the above, more than 550 companies (more than 90% being MNC's) visit every year for campus-recruitment of students from LPU. The companies which have visited as of now are: Microsoft, Go

It completely depends upon your interest, aptitude and passion. But definitely B.Tech CSE is the most sought after and much more advanced specialisation programme than BCA. Though both the programs are very well delivered in LPU. CSE B.Tech commands much more market value in terms of recruiters and specializations. I hope you understand. All the best.

I would suggest either do BCA+MCA or B.Tech. No need to do a Diploma, that's a waste of time and money. Both options that I gave you are good, but B.Tech CS is somewhat better than other.
