The best course for you after B.Sc(IT) is what you are interested in. Here are the most sought after choices: M.Sc (IT/CS), MCA and MBA IT.

Post Graduation (M.Sc.IT)
Here comes the main Query which majority of the people have.In Post graduation,A B.Sc.IT graduate can do a M.Sc in the same field or a MCA. Now, Job-wise M.Sc is preferred by people who want to go into the research or the teaching field. MCA is for people who want to become programmers and all those high paying jobs. So, MCA is always preferable for a better job and gives u a better edge than the M.Sc's. The MCA is a 3 year course while the M.Sc is a 2 year course but believe me, putting that 1 year extra can get you a lakh extra in the first annual salary. Worth it isn't it?
Master of Business Administration, MBA
Now, one can do a MBA even after post-graduate degree but doing it right after your Bachelor's will give you a great edge and catapult you to a high paying job of a manager much Faster. I would recommend you to go for MBA in IT which would give you a better edge than all the MCA, M.Sc, even the Engineers until they do their management. MBA IT is offered in many college including the Famous Symbiosis Institute in Pune. Doing an MBA can get you a job position like a project manager where you can draw a salary of about Rs.5-6 lakhs per year. And experience of 2 years can even get you Rs.7-8 lakhs per year.
Studies abroad.
If studying abroad is an option for you then I would recommend either UK or USA as they are the best in the IT field and offer the highest salaries too! US needs 16 years education while UK allows 15 years. Now, a B.Sc IT graduate will have completed 15 years of education. So, his only option is UK where the MS that is Master of Science in IT which is equivalent to post-graduate degree in engineering is only of a year. The total cost including the college fee, hostel charges, etc. will be around Rs 10 lakhs but once you complete it, the jobs pay you about Rs 10-12 lakhs per year. So, it can easily be recovered.
But, if you are keen on doing your MS IT in USA, then you will have to do a small 1 year diploma in any field so as to complete the 16 years of education and then apply for the colleges. Please Google for the relevant exam that you need to pass in order to be eligible for applying for colleges abroad.
