Spain vs Ireland for Indian Students: Ireland Is English-Speaking, Spain Is Cheaper

Ireland's advantage is language: everything is in English, and Dublin's tech employers hire graduates. Spain's advantage is cost: public master's are a fraction of Irish non-EU fees, and students may work 30 hours a week against Ireland's 20 in term.
