There won’t be any problem if someone gets admission after passing from the PTU counseling. This happens to almost every student. 

If you want to take admission via the counseling round then there is a concession for 1000 rupees on admission in PTU.

Compare both the institutes, if it is a government college you can opt for a refund. However, in the case of private colleges, it is your choice to get admitted. 

Before choosing, look over the stats of both the institutes and figure out the better one. Choose the college based on Faculty, academics, recognitions, placements stats. Choose the better college out of the two.

As a university, PTU is good enough but if you want to take other aspects into account such as the campus, then keeping your options open would be a good idea. Someone I know has completed her MBA from PTU and in her opinion, the institute is entirely immersed in academics which is not bad per se but there are hardly any extra-curricular activities and events going on. The faculty is also subpar in their abilities.

In the case of engineering, the students are known to memorize everything instead of understanding the concept. There are always exceptions, though. The placement scenario in PTU is also not that great. The average CTC offered at the institute is 5 LPA. However, the colleges under PTU are more popular than the main campus.

Both the Maharshi Dayanand University (MDU) and the I. K. Gujral Punjab Technical University (PTU) are public universities consisting of many private and public engineering colleges. If you are getting private colleges in both of the universities, then there is no point of comparison as both will be essentially the same.

For a good job after your studies, you need to concentrate on the training you will receive between your studies. Also, you will have to practice programming languages very thoroughly. If you can get a percentage of 70% - 75%, then getting a job won’t be a problem in either of the universities.

If you want to stay outside to become independent, then sure you can join any college which is a little farther from your home.
