We suggest you review the cutoffs followed by each of the institution to know about the quality of peer group. In SSN, the admission is offered only if you are in top 20 percentile category in all India admission test. Talk to few alumni, existing senior students to gauge the pulse. SSN stands on a unique advantage of being at Chennai, the city of big industries across various domains. But in terms of placement, probably both the institutions are on par.

SSN is better in my opinion.
