Hi,
I am in 4th year B.Tech and have been in a similar position in my 3rd year and this is what I have to say. There are alot of entrance exams apart from JAM such as GATE-Physics, CSIR-NET, JEST and TIFR entrance. Based on these, you can enter any great university such as IISC Bangalore, IIT M, TIFR or numerous research institutes such as RRI, HRI, BARC, or various research institutes. Just search and download a brochure of these exams to you'll get a knowledge of all possible options. So, if your interest is basically research, then there are alot of great institutes as an option. Great research work is going on there in many institutes and main field of research in a lot of these is Condensed Matter Physics. Quantum computation is also a field of research in some of these like HRI. I don't think it is easy and plausible to predict what kind of a job you will be doing after Ph.D. You can be a scientist in government. Insti or a company or a Teacher or a freelancer, or a lot of things you won't be able to imagine right now. So, the best option you have right now is study hard and get into a great institute.

At present, the admission to the Physics programme in TIFR is for Ph.D. degree only. TIFR do not admit students for M.Sc. Or M.Phil separately (please see the SBP-Guidelines). Eligibility :- An M.Sc. In Physics the basic requirement for admission to the Ph.D. degree programme, but B.Sc. Graduates with consistently very good academic record are encouraged to apply. Candidates with B.Tech or M.Tech degree in relevant areas will also be considered. Students must be selected through the TIFR research Scholars' admission procedure and admitted to the Institute as a graduate student. Selection criteria :- GATE/NET/CSIR/JEST +Written test and Interview.
