I have got a relative who recently graduated from SAU. Here is what he had to say about the institute.

Course structure- SAU has a good curriculum for a master's program. SAU offers an extra 6 months project under the guidance of one faculty member that helps you learn the basics of research and especially software like Matlab and Latex.
Faculties- All the lecturers are well-qualified and more inclined towards research work.
Academic environment- SAU gives you all possible facilities such as one-to-one interaction with faculties, study rooms, library, and good peer interaction.
Brand value- SAU is a new university and growing at a slow pace with a few courses available.
Culture- SAU celebrates a multi-culture environment as students of SAARC countries study and live together.
Placements- SAU doesn't provide professional courses and does not have a placement cell. However, it provides a strong background to those interested in academics and research.

Hope this answers your question.

What's the reputation of the South Asian University in Delhi for an MSc in applied mathematics?

South Asian University is a central funded government university. According to my friend studying there, It is not only an exceptional university in India but only one among the records of international universities in the world.

This international university was established by a member of the SAARC.
It was a dream project of Dr. Man Mohan Singh which he had proposed in the 13th SAARC summit held in Dhaka.
It was later in the 14th summit that the establishment of this university was decided to be held in India.
It provides courses of Applied Math, Biotechnology, Computer Science, Development Economics, International relations, Sociology, and Legal Studies.
Its permanent campus is under construction in Maidan Garhi, Delhi while being operated from Akbar Bhawan, Chanakyapuri.
SAARC consists of 8 countries which are India, Afghanistan, Bangladesh, Bhutan, Maldives, Nepal, Pakistan, and Sri Lanka.
Therefore, the degree given by the university is recognized by the UGC of all 8 countries.
The tag of SAARC attached would benefit your career in foreign countries as well.

SAU has its own limitations as it is a new university. SAU is yet to be known among the scholarly and creating its name. Due to its less popularity, the entrance competition is not very tough. However, students prefer IITs, DU, and JNU for their post-graduate studies ignoring the high-level facilities provided at SAU.
