Is is really so ? Just because you get an IIT degree, does it 
guarantee/promise better and great jobs ??

I think you're wrong here completely.
Take my live example here.
I've been into GNU and Linux for the past 5 years. I'm able to now grade 
myself into "Power User" category too.
I've cleared interviews from Wipro, Dell and many other companies. Got offer 
letters concerning the package plan.
And then when I tell them that my academics are bad, people get stunted. 
Before I reveal this they say that I'm technically sound for the role of job 
they have and once I disclose about my degree they say they've got many 
company norms that don't allow undergraduates blah blah..

My answer to them, Fine.. Go, find a graduate with better skills.

I did my S.L.C (60%) from Nepal. I did my +2 (40%) from Nepal. I did my B.Sc 
(IT) Distance Education Degree from Delhi from Manipal University (Final 
Semester Result awaited).

Still people, organizations prefer degrees over technical skills. I'm not sure 
wether they should or shouldn't.

This is one good reason for me to have been jobless since 1 year.

So my conclusion up till now says:
"If you need a job, Go get a degree. No matter where you get from, how you get 
from".
