Its more important that what type of internship you are looking? Is it a hardcore technical internship or is it an internship where you can understand the work culture of an organisation along with some technical knowledge. If your looking for Technical 1 get into institutions like IIT (ex. work under a professor as a Junior Research Analyst) and if you are looking for internship where you can understand work culture get into startups which provide internships (Ex. there is an IIT Roorkee and Harvard alumni ventured firm TECHBUDDY
Its more important that you learn and gain some knowledge during your internship, doesn't matter whether its a paid internship or unpaid. See you can master yourself or can't achieve any target in just a short span of 1 or 2 months, you can understand things and can shape your career accordingly. I will suggest you for internships where you can understand the work culture as it have some added benefits which are:-
1. Understanding How an organisation works.
2. Will help you in defining your area of interest
3. Helps you in understanding the technical as well as non-technical aspects of engineering
4. Get connected to bunch of talented people
5. Self grooming as per the industry and corporate environment
6. Will add a new dimension to you career.
