Talk to experienced doctor online and get your health questions answered in just 5 minutes.
Both covaxin and covishield are fine but if we talk about efficacy recent studies suggest covaxin efficacy is 81% wherever covishield efficacy is 72%
The gap between the two doses of covaxin is 4 weeks whereas of covishield is 6-8 weeks
But the latest and best till now is the vaccine sputnik whose efficacy is near about 90% and the gap between 2 doses are 3 weeks

there are no very significant differences between the vaccines available in India...seeing the crisis just get whichever is available...but definitely get your shot asap

Go for any one of the available vaccines in your locality..Side effects are very minor and generally is not at all a contraindication to take any Covid vaccine..Get yourself vaccinated as early as you can..
