Among the two institutes mentioned, St.Xavier College, Mumbai is better for a BA in psychology.

The table below will give you a brief overview of the two colleges.

Parameters	Jai Hind	St.Xavier College
Fee structure	INR 16,200 (for 3 years)	Rs 17,625 (for 3 years)
Placement rate (2020)	-	>90%
Average salary package (2020)	3 LPA	6.5 LPA

Comparison:

Both the institutes provide good learning opportunities, but the difference is St. Xavier is autonomous and hence better.

As St. Xaviers is autonomous, it can update the syllabus anytime, if needed. While Jai Hind is affiliated with MU and follows the same syllabus as MU. Which may not be updated.
Xavier’s also conducts its own examinations. So any problem caused in the result published by MU will not affect the students of Xaviers.
Like any other autonomous institute, Xaviers also publishes its results first. So, students get the first preference for a job.
While containing a degree from MU through Jai Hind is quite convenient since university and college will both have a set of mark sheets.

From the academic point of view, St. Xaviers College is better than Jai Hind College Mumbai.
