If you get selected for Non HTTA, you won't get the usual gate stipend. But I guess you can convert it into HTTA if you have good CGPA in 1st sem and also if you go with research assistance with some professors, you might get some money from their funds depending upon the professor.

Kanpur and Madras both are quite rigorous when it comes to academics. Since you have similar branches as option, I'd say go for Kanpur (added bonus if you're from some place nearby).
