Unfortunately afaik there are none. In India teaching is entrenched to the conventional no-brian-use. They are tailored to elicit questions whose answers are known and easy to assimilate, rather than force you to think and raise your own - a requirement of the real world. IMO the op would be far better off saving his money and time learning himself, especially since the resources on the web are orders of magnitude better than any of the institutes.
My experience with Ultramax was quite okay. I learned many new things within a short span and everything was done in command line. The only practical problem was that the course was jinxed from the very first day. On the opening day, rain water flooded our basement class and like refugees, we had to use other classes in the institute where we spent initial time reloading linux everytime another course class removed it. The 3 month course stretched to 9 months and the last module on servers was done in fast forward. But I guess it was just bad luck.
